word. This is not quite as good as
the one last week.
CANDIDATES SHOULD WORK
AS THEY HAVE NEVER WORKED
BEFORE.
From this schedule it is hardly
necessary for us to point out the
advantages of securing every possi-
BILE subscription this week.
Just think of the offer which
makes it possible for you to get
| 5000 votes on a yearly subscription
where formerly $500 votes were
given. A two-year subscription will
count $4,000 votes instead of 1000,
while a six months subscription
will count for $500 votes instead
of 1880.
In the olden times charms were
used to bring about things greatly
desired. Here is the old saying ad-
dressed to the stars:
Star, star, star, bright:
First star I've seen tonight"
and a hundred others for the same
purpose of bringing good luck.
Then picking up pins is warrant
ed to bring any number of wished
for happenings. Perhaps each one
of the candidates in THE CITI-
ZEN'S contest has her own particu-
lar fetish which is going to bring
her Tour of Bermuda or a beauti-
full diamond ring, but in these mod
ern days a little effort will do more
than any number of incantations.
Instead of picking up pins, candi-
dates in this contest should pick up
their pencil and receipt book during
a. .al, Il,
Saturday night, January Z, at 9 p.
M, and secure every possible SUBJ
scription. They count more real
votes toward the prizes than all the
fetish incantations you may possess.
Read full details of this offer and
keep hustling until the end.
Name Your Companion.
Each candidate is required to send
in the name of the young lady whom
they will select as their companion
of the Bermuda Tour in the event
that they receive the highest num-
her Of votes.
To-day the names of the candi-
dates companions are printed, so
if you have not yet made a selec-
ton, do so at once.
1t should be remembered that the
person receiving the highest number
of votes will be entitled to take a
friend along with her on the Tour
of Bermuda at the expense of The
Citizen Publishing Co. So Miss
Candidate get some one of your
hustling friends to help you win
At present the chances are equal tu
all as is indicated by the numb ~
of special ballots issued during the
period ending last Monday.
The response to Opportunity
Days" of THE CITIZENS Tour OF
Bermuda contest on the part of the
candidates was double what had
been expected by the Tour depart
ment.
All day long Monday the success.
, full subscription gatherers flocked tC
I THE CITIZEN Office and turned in
the business they had completed
then, hurrying out again, they sci
off in search of just one more, OF
two more, or perhaps three more
persons who might be persuaded tc
give a subscription to complete an
other club of ten yearly subscriptions
+ before the office closed that night.
Very Successful.
To judge by the number who re-
turned, they were most successful
in their quest. By dusk, things be-
, gan to thicken around us, and by
you would have thought a recep
ton was going on in the Tour de-
partment. Much fun and laughter
and more good solid business went
on.
The result was a bunch of sub
scriptions so large that the manage
ment is just now beginning to catcE
up with it, and the spare moments
have been so few that we really
don't know if there have been any
at all.
The trouble is you can't know
where anyone else stands. The fac
: that you were on the scene Monday
night with a bunch of subscriptions
would be more reassuring if you die
not know that nearly everyone else
; was there, too. 1t was convulsively
proved that there was to be no walk
over in the winning of the prizes
and that the ambitious candidate!
must keep right at it if they hope
to keep ahead of their rivals.
: Don't Go To Sleep.
! Now that the Opportunity Days
: are over don't go to sleep This i!
t real danger to many. They are
| conscious they did well during the
! time their efforts counted for most
, They should not lose sight of the
' fact that all of these efforts may be-
: wasted if they relax their energie!
= now.
A new OFFER has started. Make III
. your mind that you will do as muct
with the opportunities offered yol
: as you have in the past.
! If you have failed up TO this time
in the utmost diligence make III
! your mind to do still better than a
any previous time.
, The race is far from run; indeed
i less than half of the time has elaps
! ed, and there is not one of you who
Z could not even if you were at the
foot of the list overcome your pres
ent handicap in the remaining foul
weeks.
Friends Willing.
