A SPECIAL OFFER TO PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.

We want to increase the circulation
of the MONITOR REGISTER and place
it in every family in Salem and Glou-
cester counties. 1t has shown a
steady increase since we assumed the
management Of its affairs, but we wan,
to add 1000 names to our subscrip-
ton list in the next ninety days, and
in order to do this we make the fol-
lowing proposition to the public
schools of Salem and Gloucester
counties:
We will present to each public
school in the two counties $40 for the
benefit of their school library, if the
teacher and scholars of said school
will send us club of fifty subscribers
to the MoNIToR.REGIsTER at 81 a
year, this to include a years sub
scription to the Farm journal and a
beautiful picture of George Washing
ton, that ought to be framed and hung
in every school-house. The money
must, in every case, accompany the
name of the subscriber, and schools
entering the contest, if they are una
BILE to obtain the full number, will be
paid pro rata amount for the number
of subscribers sent.
Here is an opportunity for every
district to aid their school and at tht
same time receive full equivalent fol
their money. The two papers are
more than worth the money, and We
are contemplating some improvements
in the MONITOR. REGISTER that viii
still farther enhance its value to ou
readers. 1896 will be stirring year
and no family ought to be without
good local paper.
