PIANO CONTEST
WARMING UP
SEVERAL YOUNG LADIES HAVE
ENTERED.
fine CHANCE FOR A PRIZE
EVERY CONTESTANT HAS A GOOD
SHOW FOR THE BIG PRIZES.

The big Piano Voting Contest an.
nounced by the Register last week has
already began to warm up and there
is every prospect Of the best contest
ever given anywhere in this section
Already number of the most popular
young ladies in Brookings City and
Brookings county have been nominate
ed by their friends, and their presence
in the contest insures that there will
be something doing from now until the
last votes are counted.
In an ad on another page we print
a nomination blank and if you can
think of any popular young lady of
your acquaintance who is not entered
fill out the blank and send it to this
Office That is all that is necessary,
except to get out and hustle for your
candidates.
AS we announced last week two
beautiful $400 pianos will be given
to the most popular young ladies in
the two districts. District No. 1 will
comprise the city of Brookings and
District No. 2 all the rest of the coun-
ty.
These prizes are worth striving for
The Register could not afford for a
minute to make a proposition which
it will not back up and the conditions
are fully set forth in our ad on an
other page.
The young ladies who secure the
greatest number of votes in their dis
trict during the next few weeks will
get the pianos. How many votes they
get depends on the number of friends
they hav and whether or not these
friends stand by them.
Besides the pianos we are giving as
first prizes we are giving several
extra prizes before the contest closes
Every girl in Brookings city and in
Brookings county has an opportunity
to win some of these prizes. All that
is necessary is that their names be
sent to the editor, who will promptly
send out the necessary subscription
receipt blanks and orders, with in
structions how to proceed
Votes will be issued a st ted in
the rules of the contest for all sub
scriptiohs and they may be voted as the
subscriber wishes. One thing, how
ever, we must insist on, that our ad-
vice is not asked in his matter, as
the contest must be fair to all and
we will not favor one more tl.an an
other. Other prizes will be announced
later during the contest. The girl who
gets busy right away will be the one
who stands the best ch, nee of winning.

the Register see him at once and get

does. If you know some one who has
not vet renewed his subscription, get
