test.
Since last week contestants in
most every section of the county
have gone to work and are work.
ing with all the possible deter
mination to win the big Ford
Touring car, Smith and Barnes
Piano or other prizes. They
are working this week to secure
many subscriptions 1hile they
may avail themselves of the big
extra vote offer of 80, 600 Bonus
votes that will be allowed with
each and every dollar turned in
for subscriptions by Saturday,
March 31st. This big extra vote
offer will positively close Satur-
day night, March 81, and will
not be repeated or extended, and
at no time during the remainder
of the contest will as many votes
be allowed and contestants who
make their best efforts this week
will profit thereby.
The result of the second count
of ballots is published below.
Votes have been coming into
the contest department rapidly
and the many votes cast for the
various contestants show beyond
question that this big contest
has met with the hearty approx
al of the public in general. The
contestants appreciate the oppor-
portunity to secure such costly
prizes without cost and their
friends are taking great plea
sure in helping them. The in
terest is not confined to any one
section, as votes are being re-
ceived from the most remote Sec
tions of the territory covered by
the Courier. The Courier's pop
ularity as a county newspaper is
so well established that contes-
tants find it easy to secure SUBJ
scri tions and votes.
Turn In Subscriptions
At Once.
Contestants should turn in
subscriptions as they are secur-
ed. They will be given votes
for all subscriptions These
votes may be held until the last
day of the contest, if the con-
testants so desire. The con-
testants who are working have
learned early in the contest that
that it is best to build up a good
reserve vote, and they are not
telling their most intimate
friends the number of their re-
serve vote.
While the rivalry is absolutely
friendly, the workers are deter
mined and are all working with
that stick-to-itiveness so charac-
teristic of Missouri ladies' and es-
pecially Charlton Counrians.

talks are supplemented by experts
who know the variety of uses ana

been going thru a chaotic period or
