CLUBS ARE WHAT
MEAN MOST NOW
Iune 19 Sees Another Big Drop
in the Schedule Govern
ing Extra Votes
FINISH is FAST APPROACHING
Resting on Ones Oars at This
Time Is Indeed a Grave
Mistake
FINISH is FAST APPRoACHlN

From now until June Is every dollar
in amount covering clubs will call for
450 extra votes. These extra votes are
given in addition to the regular votes
of 165 to a dollar in new subscription
payments, and rs to a dollar in old sub
scription payments. BY CLUB" is meant
ten new subscriptions of any length,
turned in at one and the same time, or
five voting certificates from classified
advertising coupon books turned in at
one and the same time. The value of
clubs at this time cannot be over
estimated. A very little figuring will
show anybody that the next week spent
in securing new subscriptions to be
built into clubs will bring golden re-
wards.
HIGHEST TOTAL SMALL
The very highest total in the entire
contest represents a little over fifteen
clubs, and from this the leads dwindle
down to a total which represents just
about one yearly club This last is
the total leading for the 1920 double trip
to Mexico City and return. From top
to bottom the leads holding good at
present are too small to be discourag-
ing to real hustlers, and 1t is the con-
test departments earnest desire to
serve warning upon present leaders and
give notice to all others that energy
and lots of it-must be devoted to this
enterprise during the remaining time of
the contest by those who are anxious
and determined to come out successful.
The Herald has purchased an array
of magnificent prizes and is offering
them for energy. They go to candi-
votes according to the conditions of the
contest.
ARE YOU HUSTLING?
Now, reveiewing the contest history
to date, it is evident that aspirants for
honors do not realize how fatal is the
mistake of resting upon ones oars in
the home stretch. The more done be-
tween now and June 80 the easier will
victory be won at the close. The less
done, the harder it will be to score vic
tory June 80. The race is not to the
swift, but to the steady. The candi-
date who does as much as he or she
can every day will not have to worry
about the outcome of the campaign.
If you have been following the progress
Of the contest carefully during the past
few weeks you will have noticed that
great many leading totals have re-
manned absolutely stationary. This
might lead some people to believe GER
tain candidates are holding back" but
when it is remembered that the vote
schedule has been reduced greatly dur
ing the past few weeks it will be
realized that holding back has been,
and will continue to be, very costly
from a vote standpoint. The loss of
votes through holding back has been,
to date, too great to make any other
benefit worth while, and the contest
man cannot see what other benefit
there could be.
RESTING is DANGEROUS
Remaining stationary encourages
rather than discourages candidates, and
I'D to this time have not figured prom
inently, whereas a steady increase
would tend to discourage late entrance
of new aspirants.
If you intend to be winner-and
you certainly should be if you are In
this contest at all-it is high time that
you study for a moment and do some
thinking for yourself. 2 At this time
you should be getting every possible
vote and mapping out campaign each
day for the succeeding day, which will
leave no stone unturned.
Big prizes are to be given away June
30; big things must be done before
then. Remember, the prizes go for
votes, and votes alone, and it is up to
you entirely to secure votes.
