FIRST COUNT OCTOBER II.
The Herald's Subscription Contest
Exceeds All Expectations.

vigor exceeding all expectations.
Contestants from every part of the
county are at work for the big prizes.
Good work is being put in, and every
one of them have started with the
determination to win. The remark
able ease with which they have been
securing subscriptions \bears out our
assertion that to get subscriptions to
The Bamberg Herald requires only
the asking, for everybody wants it.
The first count will be published
on Thursday, October 14th. All
contestants are asked to have their
subscriptions in The Herald Office by
Saturday, October 9th. The result
of the count will not be published
until the issue of The Herald on the
following Thursday. Be sure to look
for The Herald containing the first
count, as this will be the only an
nouncement made of the standing of
the contestants.
AS an extra inducement for the
contestants to put in some good work
at the start, Mr.. w. D. Rhoad will
present the contestant having the
largest number of votes in the first
count with a $500 pair of lovely
Queen Quality" shoes. You know
the Queen Quality" It is leader
among shoes, and the woman who
wears them is known for her taste in
footwear. This pair of shoes will
not cost the contestant one cent, and
the prize is entirely additional.
Votes secured with a view of secur-
ing this pair of shoes will also count
for the big prizes It is merely Of
fered as stimulus-to encourage
the contestants. Can anyone mag
inc an easier way to get nice pair
of shoes-you know right now is the
time you are buying your fall shoes
than by getting some subscriptions
to The Herald? And, just remem-
Der, the votes all count for the big
prizes. We will present the one with
the largest number of votes in our
office Saturday, October 9th, with
an order on Mr.. Rhoad for $500
pair of Queen Quality shoes. That's
all there is to it.
Now, ladies, do your best. You
may as well pick up that pair of
shoes. Make up your mind that you
will win them. It is not hard at all.
And-don't forget to send in your
subscriptions on Saturday, October
9Th, by 6 o'clock, p. m. Send either
the cash or a money order for the
amount you have collected-or, bet
ter still, bring it to The Herald Of
fee yourself.
The contest has just begun. If
you have not yet entered, do so to-
day, and start to work at once. Re-
mem Der, if you do not win prize.
one of the five large prizes-we will
give you 10 per cent. commission
on all the money you turn in to The
Herald office. It is a nice, easy
means of getting some ready cash.
It will certainly be nice to get a
good check-even if you do not win
a prize. But work with the de-
termination of securing Tat lovely
suite Of furniture. 1t comes from G..
O. Simmons, and a better furniture
dealer is nowhere to be found than
Simmons. The next prize is one OF
the most beautiful cabinet talking
machines we have ever seen. Do not
mix it up with an ordinary graphic
phone. 1t is not graphophone at
all. It is one of those neW-style
cabinet instruments. There is no
horn to break off and give trouble.
That set of furs we are getting from
Klauber will be the envy of every
woman in the county. For it is no
ordinary set of furs. Everyone
knows that Klauber is one of the
leading fur dealers in this section OF
the country. He is known far and
wide for his fur trade. The set is
worth $50 of anybody's money. In
casting about for the two last prizes,
we decided on something that every
woman has to have-a coat suit and
coat. The coat suit comes from
LaVerne Thomas & Co.. and you
know Thomas. You know that if he
sells you suit, the suit is what he
says it is. And the coat comes from
Hooton's Ladies Store and Millinery
Parlor. Hooton has been in busi-
ness long enough for everybody to
know the quality of what he sells.
He has built up a big business by
his square and honest dealings. All
in all, we feel a pardonable pride
| in our selection of the prizes, Tor
we just happen to know what we are
