They are off in bunch! Are you
one of them? The first list of nomi-
nations in THE CITIZENS Great
Tour of Bermuda Contest is printed
today. Look over the list and pick
out a favorite, or better yet, if you
are not candidate clip out the
nomination ballot, fill in, and en-
ter the race. The trips are worth
your while. Evidently the people of
Honesdale and vicinity think well of
the young ladies of this vicinity-at
any rate there's no dearth of favor
ties, and the "one best yet" would
be difficult to select.
The Best People Entered.
The names of the young ladies ap-
pearing today are daughters of the
best families of Pennsylvania. Some
have entered by themselves or their
parents while others have been nom
mated by their friends. All have
the same opportunity to win the
Tour of Bermuda. The winners
will be the ones who hustle the
hardest and do not overlook a chance
to secure a subscription. Be a
hustler, it costs you nothing but "a
little effort. Then just think of the
valuable prizes. They are worth the
effort. Your friends will help you If
you ask them right away before
some one else does.
From now on the contest will be
in earnest, and interest will increase
each day.
This will be the only election held
this year or next, when you can
-'stuff the ballot box and "vcte
early and often
One of the tour managers will call
on the contestants as soon as pos
sible, but with such a large list of
popular ones, it will take some time
to see them all, so, if possible, call
at the office and get one of the SUBJ
scription books, also valuable infor-
nation as to the best way to secure
votes.
Start Early.
While nominations will be coming
in for a month yet, you had better
get in at the start; be in with the
early ones. Join this live bunch of
hustlers and have the time of your
life.
There will be lots of fun connect
ed with the contest and you don't
want to miss any of it.
The contestants who enter in the
city division must not think that it
will be an easy matter to get ahead
of the outside candidates There is a
bunch of live hustlers entered from
the outside and they are going to
show the Honesdale contestants a
few things that will surprise them
as for subscriptions, we will give
the vote ballots issued on subscrip-
tions to you as the subscriptions are
turned in so that you can have the
votes polled whenever you choose.
List of Candidates.
The greatest possible amount of
care has been exercised in passing
upon the women whose names are
entered as contestants for the four
fine tours of Bermuda given by THE
CITIZEN. When name was placed
in nomination we submitted it to a
committee of business and profess
sional men on whose judgment and
integrity we could rely as to wheth-
er or not the lady was of good char
acter. In the case of ladies living
out of Honesdale we submitted the
names to merchants of standing in
their home town. The names pub
lished here have all been favorably
passed upon.
No woman need feel any hesi-
fancy in sending in her name or TAX
ing part in the contest if her name
is sent in by friends. Every posi-
BILE precaution has been and will be
taken to safeguard the interests of
the candidates.
The candidates published below
are of the best class of ladies living
in Pennsylvania and it is an honor
to be one of them
How Votes Are Secured.
A coupon will be printed in the
CITIZEN which will be good for the
number of votes indicated on the
face of the ballot. These ballots
must be clipped out and sent to the
ballot in the CITIZEN office before
the expiration of the date printed
thereon.
The best way to secure votes how
ever, is by securing subscriptions to
THE CITIZEN. Votes are allowed
on subscriptions as outlined in the
voting schedule printed below. With
each cash subscription of $3.50 or
more to The CITIZEN we will issue
certain number of votes according
to the length of the subscription.
The certificate votes issued on each
subscription can be voted at any
time during the contest (subject to
the voting rules.)
Votes will be issued on each pay
ment, both on old and new subscrlp
tions. Amy person owing THE CIT
IZEN for subscription will be Issued
votes for any amount paid thereon
more than $3.50.
