FOR A BIG CIRCULATION
Bemidji's Daily Paper to Be In
Every Home Before Campaign
Ends At Christmas.

Inc launchlng OF a circulation pro-
ject, that is far greater than any
thing ever undertaken in this Sec
ton of the country has been begun
by the Pioneer, through the cooper
alton of the ladies societies of the
various churches in the city of Be-
midi. In order that the reading
public may be familiar with this
manner of securing circulation, the
following statement of explanation
is deemed necessary.
The Pioneer has agreed to make a
gift of $125.OO cash to each of the
various ladies' aid societies for the
securing of each set of 100 yearly
subscriptions to the Daily Pioneer
before Christmas time. In case any
club does not reach the 100 mark,
s1.O0 for each yearly subscription
secured will be given to such club
Present subscribers of the paper are
given the privilege of helping their
respective church societies by paying
one year in advance, for which the
club will be given the same ratio,
viz: $1.06 for eachyear paid nad=
vance. No commission will be paid
on arrearages collected. Should the
subscriber wish to subscribe for a
period of six months, and should the
old subscriber wish to make an ad-
vance payment, for a period of six
months, credit of fifty cents will be
given to each club for each subscrip-
ton so secured.
The presidents of the various So
cieties have submitted names of their
respective members, and actual work
is now in progress. The members
are getting busy securing promises
from, the various church members
and friends of the church, as we'll as
their own friends. They already re-
alize what great opportunity this
subscription plan gives to the church.
Many have longed for a chance to do
something whereby the church might
receive financial aid. Many have
asked themselves the question,
What can / do to be of more than
attentive service to my church -
The time for this opportunity is
right now. Every church in Be-
midi can benefit by this offer. It
does not take work or strenuous labor
1Srh h
is necessary is organization Per-
fected organization Team work.
Let every individual member do his
or her part and the result is bound
to be surprising. Think of what it
would mean if every member turned
in his or her own subscription, new
societies! Churches who have a men,
bership of but 100 will have already
reached their first gift of $125.OO.
Churches who have a membership of
200 will have double this amount.
But it is not necessary to stop at this.
Every church and every ladies' So
ciety has among its membership a
certain number of hust1ing subscrip-
ton getters. Some will secure three
Or four or five subscriptions, among
friends, while others will make a
thorough canvass of their respective
neighborhood, and then again there
will be some who will endeavor to
cover the city, while others will
send to the surrounding towns, ask
ing them to help their church.
In addition to this offer to the
ladies' aid societies, the Pioneer has
decided to make a gift to every sub
scriber. With a years subscription
paid in advance, the subscriber is
given his choice of any of the follow
ing premiums:
One Limp Leather Bound Die
