Our mammoth gift giving enterprise
is just getting started. So little work
has been done thus far that a hustler
could start now and easily win the
Ford Automobile. Quite a number of
the candidates were in for lists yester-
day, but w do not expect that over
half of the girls who started will keep
up the work and any candidate who
would devote her entire time to the
contest and get all her friends and
relatives to help her could easily win
the Ford Automobile. Perseverance
will win, the candidate who wins the
Automobile will be the one who starts
at once and works hard every day
until the closing day of the contest.
Make a house to house canvass of the
territory in which you live collecting
old accounts from all who take the
paper and induce every n who is not
now taking the Register to subscribe
at once. After you work your home
territory thoroughly start canvassing
the different rural routes throughout
the county and then start working the
other county towns. There is a big
amount of one on our list to be col
lected in every part of the county and
there is no reason why an active can
didate can't collect at least $4,000
every day. Remember this! Every
member of your family will be as in.
terested in your success as yourself
and We allow all your relatives and
friends to help you win the Automobile
either men or ome
The first count of votes in our big
contest will be made next Tuesday,
(Dec. 24th) evening at six o'clock.
The result of this count of votes will
be published in next weeks issue OF
the Register. Every candidate in the
contest should try hard to collect a
bunch of money to turn in on that day.
Next weeks issue of the Register will
contain only the names of candidates
who have received some votes and will
very nearly represent the actual work
ers in our contest. The candidate
who turns in the most money up to
next Tuesday will be published in first
place in the published count and every
candidate should try hard for first
place next week as it will make it
much easier for her to collect money
from then on because it will show her
friends that she stands a good chance
to win the Automobile. The first
count will be made next Tuesday even-
ing, you have a few days to work so
start now and try hard to have a bunch
of money to turn in On that day.
We are going to award absolutely
free over $1,000 in prizes to the candi-
dates in our contest for about eight
weeks pleasant effort on their part in
collecting and soliciting subscriptions
for the Register. Just think! For
eight weeks work you a get a brand
new, fully equipped Ford Automobile
If you start now and do some collect
ing every day until the end. The work
is pleasant and you can't lose because
we are going to pay back ten per cent
of all the money she collects to every
candidate who works till the end of
the contest and fails to win one of the
fine prizes. Now is the time to start!
Remember the old adage, 1.-The early
bird catches the worm" There is an
Automobile, a Piano, a Diamond Ring,
a Business Scholarship and a Gold
Watch besides ten per cent to all
losers. The candidate who gets an
early start and works hard till the
finish is the one who will win the
Automobile. Realize the value of the
prizes and start working earnestly at
once.
