Arizona republican., 1906-10-23

The second week of the contest start ed with marked vim and enthusiasm on the part of the boys and girls compet- ing for the Republicans free scholar ship and trips. and the general public is awakening to a spirit of general helpfulness toward these youngsters and much good natured rivalry is be- ing manifested. Men and women de- siring to help certain contestants come into the office daily and subscibe for the paper, stating that the credit is to be counted for a contestant named. Other old subscribers are doing like wise by paying up for several months in advance.
 CLIMAX REACHED.
 The acme, of this kindly interest was reached yesterday when an entire stranger to the Republican office and to the contestants in the race. came in and deposited a big bunch of coupons from his daily paper and asked that they be credited to Paul Todd. When asked regarding his interest, he said: Yes. I'm a stranger here but this boy solicited my subscription for the best paper in the country" as he put it. and finding that he gave me a good paper for my money, and that he was a perfect little gentleman. I merely want to assist him to a better educa- tiOn if possible. With the advantages Of a special education he will certainly l develop into one of Americas repre- | sentative young men"
 Subscriptions have been paid at the office with credit to be given to Hary l Kerr and Robert Banks. Harry is a racer with forty horse power speed, and has a host of fritnds who are de- sirous of placing him in the lead again and are lending their aid and influ- 1 ence to that end. So boys and girls 1 if you want to keep at the top, or land | first place, you must lose no time but l devote every spare moment to vote get | ting.
 | Robert Banks is a deserving boy and | a good honest worker. While his work so far has not scored him so many points as some, it has been of the best and very satisfactory to The Republi- | can. He has many friends in the rural | districts and a good field to cover. If his work continues as good as his pres | est showing indicates he will certainly l be in the winning class at the finish 1 of the race.
 1 WAY TO GET VOTES. i The best way to get votes is to rustic l new subscriptions, for the new ones | count nearly 40 per cent more than the l renewals of old ones, but the way to l get new subscribers is to ask every ] body you see to help you win your de- | sired special school course or trip by subscribing for The Republican. And
 then get them to save the coupons for | you. Remember these count one vote II each and there are 90 to 31 of them for every subscriber each month. Y SPECIAL SCHOOL COURSES. II Too much cannot be said in regard to ' the special school courses The Repub- l ican will give to the winning contest | ants.
 II A school education is an absolute ne II cessity of the times and a thorough II business, musical, vocal, or crafts and arts training can be secured by young
 men and women only in these institu- tions which are devoted exclusively to these lines of special instruction. The LamsOn Business College is one of the best equipped and well organized schools not only in Arizona but the en- tire southwest. And for the boy or girl wishing a thorough stenographiC course The Republicans offer meets every requirement. But this is not the only course available as a choice of
 any the school teaches may be selected
 There are two scholarships for con-
 testants in the Scranton International correspondence school Every one
 knows what a reliable and remarkably
 good system this school has for teach
 ing pupils at home by a course of cor Irespondence. The contestants who SC lest this school will have choice oi
 dozens of special courses, such as the
 different engineering courses, drafts
 man, illustrating, window trimming | chemistry, etc.
