Windham County reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1901-1906, 1903-02-13

The conditions which must be OBJ
served in connection with this work
should not be forgotten. They are as
follows:
There is no restriction as to terri
tory in which renewals, new subscrip-
tions, advertising or paper coupons
nav be solicited by contestants.
All reports must be made on a blank
which will be furnished by the Refor
mer.
All votes must be in the Reformer Of
flee on Saturday, April 30, at p. M,
as none will be accepted after that
date and hour.
Complete reports should be sent in on
Wednesday of each week and results
viii be printed in the Reformer of the
following Friday.
The votes will be counted and the
awards made by committee of three
Brattleboro business men-to be select
ed by the contestants from a list fur
nished by the Reformer.
New subscribers will he held to mean
people who do not now take the Re-
former. Subscriptions which have been
discontinued and renewed in some 9TH
er name will be counted as renewals,
if detected.
In noting the progress of the various
contestants it is apparent that to the
worker belongs the spoils of victory:
and those early in the field of labor
reap the richest and fullest returns.
To aid all in this effort to secure the
desirable prizes offered, We suggest the
following
Certain Road to Success:
1t is easy to be winner If you start
early and work in the right directions.
Your first object should be to secure
new subscribers to the Reformer, since
these bring in votes faster than any
other way. Each new paid yearly sub
scription adds 200 votes to your record!
Then get everybody you can who are
already subscribers, to renew their
subscriptions as many years ahead as
thev please-each year counts you LOO
votes Get all the people you know
who advertise to advertise IN the Re-
former and all those who now advertise
in the Reformer, to give you their votes
each 81. 90 paid for advertising counts
you 90 votes Finally, get all the cou-
pons printed in each issue of the Re-
former that you can, from people who
take or buy teach coupon counts
YOU two votes Thus you have four
avenues through which votes may be
made to pour in to swell your total fig
ures. If you belong to society,
club or other organization, or if you
have friends in one, try to induce that
body to work for you write to friends
at a distance who take the Reformer
or who ought to take it, to renew
or subscribe in your favor. Above
all, get your work in early before some
one else CLEANS the field ahead of you.
The best of it is you need not be afraid
to ask anyone to subscribe for the Re-
former for everybody admits that it is
the best paper in the county and that
everybody ought to have it; you need
not hesitate to ask people to renew, for
everybody that reads it now will want
it always and be perfectly willing to
pay for so good a paper in advance;
you need not be shy about approaching
advertisers, for it pays to advertise in
the Reformer; the Reformer is alive,
and everybody reads it, and advertisers
know it. You have the very best of op-
portunities, if you will only take ad-
vantage of it. Report blanks and sub
scription receipts will be sent from this
office to any worker upon request.
