STANDING OF CANDIDATES WEDNESDAY, JUNE !, at ! J. M


Carpenters Union, Pleasantyille ...
Who will be at the top1of the voting
ladder in next weeks issue would be
very difficult to guess, for often those
who stand near the foot today, head the
list tomorrow. There will be cou-
tinual see-sawing Of positions from now
on until the close If your favorite is
not i'll the position you would like to
have it, just remember that little cf
fort on the part of yourself among your
friends will give it lift that will Be
surprising.
No new nominations have been receiv-
ed for two weeks, yet others may vet
enter, but right here we want to suggest
that if you have been planning TO nomi1
nate your favorite, you had better get
busy at once, for this is contest of
live organizations made up of live mem
bers and things will begin to hum in
very short time.
In the Asking
There are thousands of votes to be OBJ
tanned in this vicinity and ALL THAT
IS NEEDED IS SOME ONE TO DO THE
ASKING. The standing today indicated
that somebody has been doing some
thing, yet we viii be candid with you
and tell You that considerable Of this
support has not been due to the actual
solicitation OF any particular person,
but has come i'll voluntarily from persous
who have read of the contest through
the columns of The Press. In some
cases, our old subscribers have renewed

the list. In other instances, new sub
scriptions have come into the office and
the votes issued for them have been cast
for some candidate in the locality from
which the subscription came. A great
many subscribers are clipping the cou
pons out of their paper and sending
them to this Office. So it now behooves
the members of the candidates receiving
this voluntary support to get busy and
show their appreciation of the support
our subscribers have given them. This
can be done by collecting the coupons
which appear in each issue of The Press
and, incidentally, soliciting renewal sub
scriptions and new subscriptions from
every one approached. Books of blank
receipts to be used in soliciting sub
scriptions will be given to any one ap
plying at til is Office, or will be mailed
upon request.
A glance at the standing of the col
testants will convince any one that no
candidate has as vet secured such lead
as would entitle their workers to believe
Chat the race is Won, OF to deter the
members OF any competing organization
from making an effort because some or
ganization has such big lead. The race
will not be won by any organization
until the last day Of the contest.
Rewards for All Candidates
Now that the piano is on exhibition
and every one can see just how valuable
an instrument we are Offering as an
award for their efforts, we expect re-
newed effort on the part Of every candi-
date III the list Why shouldn't very
strenuous effort be put forth to attain
success in this contest? A beautiful
high grade 1925 piano will reward the
successful one for the efforts, Further
more, every organization is going to be
successful in a way. The Krell French
Piano &C., OF whom the prize piano was
purchased. have authorized us to offer
to the unsuccessful candidate a credit
to apply on the purchase of any instru-
ment which they make. This credit
will amount to $1,000 for the next
highest organization, with slight de-
crease for the organization following
ron down the list. This will be explained
more fully in a later issue.
Talk Only Contest
To any one who has been contemplat-
ing some support for their favorite, we
desire to say-get busy at once, don't
hold back waiting for some one else to
take the initiative. Start today and
others will soon fall in line with YOU
and in a very short time You will have
a working force that will not only sur
prise. but will mean success for your
organization.
We realize the fact that quite num-
Der of people who really desire to help
some candidate have difficulty III pre-
senting the right argument to bring the
best results. The best way to do when
you approach prospective subscriber is
To tell him about the contest and that
the prize. a $32500 piano, is wanted very
badly by your organzation, and that his
support is going to be great aid to
YOU in obtaining this piano. In great
majority of cases the assistance will be
freely given if the person approached
