SPECIAL WEEK
BONUS OFFER
EXTRA VOTES TO BE GIVEN
THIS WEEK TO CONTESTANTS
IN HERALD'S CAMPAIGN.
CONTESTANTS WORKING HARD
Leaders Are Still Maintaining Rela-
tive Standings.

$500 in gold or a 1917 five passen-
ger Ford auto is mighty good pay
for a few hours work daily for few
weeks. Some one of the contestants
in the Herald's profit sharing circu-
lation campaign is going to receive
this pay-the one who is the most
persistent, the most perseverant and
who works the hardest. The second
hardest working contestant will re-
ceive a $500 Grafonola which may
be seen at any time at Simonds'
Drug Store, C. d. Simonds having
the agency for the Columbia phono-
graphs and records and carrying a
full stock of all makes of the Column
bia machine which sell for from
$15 to 5000 according to the size and
grade of the machine.
The past week all the contestants
did good work and as yet no one
contestant has secured what might be
called a lead" over the other con-
testants. Helen Murphy, Mrs. Nc
Glocklin, Bea bennington, Claude
Benner and Miss Henrietta Rath are
the topnotchers and the others in the
race could easily forge ahead by a
determined effort and the spending
of several hours daily in the interests
of their several candidates..
Mrs. Ella McGlocklin won the $40
bonus money this week for having
turned in the most subscriptions and
Claude Benner and Bea Bennington
were close seconds. Some of the
contestants have already started to
hold out votes and on this account
from now on the standing of the
contestants as published will not nee
essarily show their real place in the
race.
However the record at the Herald
office as compiled Saturday night
gives Miss Bee bennington 100000
votes; Miss Helen Murphy 1889 900
votes; Mrs. Ella McGlocklin, 1922
900 votes; Claude Benner, 1,068,0OO
votes; Miss Rath, 100000 votes
Miss Johnston, $4,000 votes; Miss
Welch, $4,000 votes; and Mrs. Frit-
terer, 100000 votes.
Only few more weeks of the con-
test remains. None of the contes-
tants can afford to slacken their
efforts now. The contestant who
works hard daily and who keeps a
group of friends busy working for
her is bound to win. Start out each
morning with a list of your friends
whom you plan to see that day. Set
a goal to reach every day. Outline
a certain work for each day of the
week. The systematic canvass is
the canvass that counts. Don't work
in haphazard way if you want to
win the auto or the $500 in gold.
For the coming week a bonus of
$4,000 votes will be given for each
club of $1,000 worth of subscriptions
