 Now listen! There is absolute ly no truth in the statement that this is the closed season for hunt ing subscriptions to the Picayune. The law, made by the Picayune, permits live aggressive contest ants to hunt subscription until the close of the contest and there is a bounty on them too. For every new subscription brought in a bounty of 600 votes in The Picayune's Popular Voting Con- test is paid. Some happy young lady is going to march away from the Picayune office in just short time wearing the smile that wont come off, becausethat young lady will have won the grand Ober- meyer 6 Sons piano. There are only a few more days left of this contest.
 That means that the race still belongs to anybody who has just little initiative. The f a c of the matter is that no one vet has such a start that it could not easily be overcome in a few days of this contest work. This is certainly the most glorious op. portunity that the young ladies of this community have ever had. Every contestant now thoroughly understands the rules and me- thhods of securing subscriptions and the majority of them have settled down in the earnest zeal ous work that eliminates idle dreaming and means working for some definite point. The aimless hap-hazard soliciting has been dropped and a systematic cam paign for votes is now in process. You cannot tell how many votes candidate really has by the score that was published :for the reason that the majority of con- testants are wisely voting but a small portion of their strength, thus keeping their real standing covered up from their opponents. But the score indicates those who can come to the front when the proper time arrives. Tbere IS no question put what every one Tn and around Prescott has been so- hclted, or at least has heard about this contest. The better field for operation now lies in the country, practically everyone in the town is now a subscriber to the paper or never will be. The contest department wants to urge on every contestant the necessity for making the next two weeks count for all they are worth.
 The time is growing short and it is only the real hustler who will have much of a show after that time. That is why it will pay to get in the game with all the energy you can command from this time until the end.
 And remember that the bonus on clubs of seven will remain the same until the final count on Monday, November "A at 3 o'clock. The answer is plain. Get busy and keep busy from now on. Remember all special bonus votes count on the piano and other prizes just the same.
 The Picayune has arranged a big bonus offer which will be { ool to and including the final jou r,b;cb ;c November c1th sS
