efforts put forth. ALI of the candidates
have unlimited opportunities in the way
OF securing subscriptions. All have
host of friends who are more than glad
to help them with their subscription, and
it only remains for the members to call
and get the votes.
All coupons are limited and must be
voted before the time expires, but sub
scription ballots have no expiration date
and can be held and voted later if de-
sired
Requests have been made to transfer
votes that have been cast for some of the
| lower candidates to some of the leaders
| in the contest. This will not be permit
ted under any circumstances When a
vote is cast it becomes the property Of
the candidate whose name appears on
| the face Of it, and it will be counted as
such at the close by the judges who will
be appointed by the leading organization.
| A days work by some Of the members
of candidates at the bottom of the list
would secure sufficient votes to bring that
candidate mp among the leaders and
thereby not only encourage other mem
| bers to get busy, but convince the com
munities Of Atlantic County that they
/ have a live organization in their midst
People are willing to aid any worthy
organization in any undertaking, but un-
less that organization demonstrates that
it merits their aid, they viii be indiffer-
ent to any appeal that we might make
through these columns.
The honor attained in this contest is
another thing to be considered because
an affair Of this nature is bound to de-
ivelop considerable friendly rivalry where
by the successful organization will pros
per in more ways than one.
What Constitutes new Subscriptions
We desire to call the attention of sol
icitors to the distinction between an old
and new subscriber An old subscriber
is anyone who was taking The Press on
April 10TH the date of the announcement
OF this contest. If such person stops
| their paper and again subscribes, they
will be given a ballot only for the num-
| Der of votes to which an old subscriber
| is entitled. The same will be true of
subscription which is stopped and later
taken out in the name of another mem
Der of the same family. No subscrip-
| ton can be transferred from one member
Of a family to another member of the
same family and be counted as new
subscription. Any person who has sub
scribed for The Press since April 10th
/ is a new subscriber and will be consider
cd as such throughout the contest and
| will be entitled to new votes for any
additional payments they desire to make.
! If any present subscriber desires to
take another subscription at the same or
different address, he will be entitled to
new votes for same, provided the present
subscription is paid up to six months in
advance.
The Closing Days
The closing days of the contest are
almost upon us. -Four weeks remain and
active work must be instituted by all
candidates, as everything is mystery and
there are many things going on among
the workers that keep one guessing. Sat
lurday, June 25, has been determined upon
as the closing day Of the contest, but this
does not mean that outstanding ballots
must be turned in at once-notice OF this
will be given far enough in advance.
