Pleasantville weekly press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1890-1911, 1910-04-23

The announcement Of The Press Not-
ing Contest in last weeks issue took our
readers by surprise, yet from the mum
erous inquiries we have received, we
are thoroughly convinced that we struck
a popular chord i'll making this splendid
ECfler to organizations.
We had hoped this week to publish
the names of IL number of organizations
! but owing to the fact that we omitted
the nomination blank i'll last weeks issue
our readers were unable to nominate
their favorite organization. This mis-
take of ours will in nowise incouven-
ience any OF the prospective candidates,
but will afford ample time for everybody
to thoroughly digest the import of our
Offer, and permit every organization III
Atlantic County to get on the band
wagon before the procession starts.
| We are taking particular care to see
that the nomination blank appears in
this issue. 1t will be found on this page
of the paper and we earnestly request
our readers to clip it out and nominate
the organization that they feel is partic
ularly i'll need Of a good high grade
piano.
In order that our readers may thoro-
uahly understand the full details of our
offer, we will again make the facts coll-
eerning it plain.
The Press has purchased of the Krell
French Piano Co., New Castle, Ind, ii
nigh grade cabinet grand piano valued
at $525.00 and is going to give it away
to the most popular OF worthy organiza
tion in Atlantic county. The readers and
friends of The Press will determine the
award i'll Voting Contest Each issue

paper will contain ballot worth votes,

ballots can only be obtained by clip
ping them from the regular edition Of

This contest will be one i'll which
energy and popularity will be the prime
factors The small organization with a
few members located in the smallest
community of a county will have an
equal opportunity for success with or
sanizatious of large membership in the
larger towns and cities.
| The Press desires to assure every one
| interested that this offer to the organ
izations Of Atlantic county is bona fide
(; There are no strings or catch phrases
| to our offer. No organization or individ-
ual will be required to secure a definite
number Of votes, nor will the soliciting
OF subscriptions of The Press be eAacted
| Of any one. However, we trust that the
magnitude Of this offer will induce many
| friends of the various organizations to
become readers of The Press.
A set of rules governing the contest
will be compiled and strict adherance
to same will be eXacted of every candl-
date, thus assuring all fair treatment
ana an honest award of the prize.
| This contest is bound TO meet with
| the approval of all within The Press
