WluNly Known all through NOl lltuSl-
ern Pennsylvania, and that the enter
prsing young men and women of both
urban and rural affiliations intend to
take advantage of 1t.
A Chance for the Unemployed.
The Tribune wishes to emphasize the
truth of its statement that this is
great opportunity for the unemployed
of both sexes to make n livelihood dur
ing the summer, even If they do not
win one of the ten special rewards,
description of which is published in
this article. They will be employed at
a regular commission of ten per cent.
on all cash subscriptions they secure,
and every facility given them for un-
restricted work. The Tribune is only
too glad to help those who desire to
help themselves and the young man or
woman in this vicinity who bemoans
the fact that there is nothing for them
to do is greatly mistaken. There is
room for all in this line of work, and
the article they are asked to handle
is one that is a good seller and is con-
stantly becoming a better one. 1t is
good, legitimate vocation they are
all that is needed for them to make
a profitable investment of their time
and labor. The special rewards are of
a nature that will appeal to any one,
no matter how varied his taste may be,
and the selection has been made with
discrimination and from the view
point of the greatest good to the great
est number.
There are probably great many per-
sons who are holding good situations
who are not averse to increasing their
salaries or who may desire a chance
to get a higher education than they
possess. These persons are particularly
desirable for participants i'm a contest
like this, for they know the value of
systematic work and of how to achieve
results with the least labor. They can
utilize a great many idle hours which
now hang heavy on their hands by 60
ing about among their friends and ac-
uuaintanccs. They need not hesitate
to explain the motives that aCtuate
them, for they are of the highest
Nyorthiness a6d are such as to enlist
sympathy and cooperation.
A Philanthropic Opportunity.
There are also great many pay
sons who know of some worthy young
ran or woman who would be glad 10
enter this contest if their attention
was called to 1t and the merits of the
contest and the great worth of the
special rewards brought to their notice.
These persons have 1t in their power
to confer a great favor ur n these
young persons, either by speaking TO
them of it or by sending us their names.
If they can spare few moments, Suf-
licient to write us the names and ad-
dresses of such young persons, The
Tribune will communicate with them
and place the matter fully before them.
The Tribune Will thank any of its read
ers who may suggest persons who may
be likely to become contestants. This
competition is open to all, and many
who do not care to enter themselves
will know of some one who will be
grateful for the opportunity to do so.
Although it has been given widespread
publicity, both through the columns OF
The Tribune and by the great interest
taken in it by the people all over
Northeastern Pennsylvania, there may
be some who have not heard of it who
would be glad to enroll their names
upon the books of the contest Friends
of these persons have 1t in their power
to bestow a great and lasting benefit
upon them, either by informing them
of the special Inducements offered or
by sending their names to The Tribune
