STANDINGS TO Be PUBLISHED
FOR LAST Time BEFORE FINAL
AWARD OFPRIZES NEXT TUESDAY

The standings in District Two of
the Times Recorder's subscription
campaign are published today, and will
appear for the last time Tuesday,
April %. All coupon votes must be
in by Saturday night, April 10, so that
they can be compiled for this issue,
which will be given to the judges, as
complete and accurate list of votes
cast by each candidate up to that
time. The number of votes held by
the candidates plus this number will
give the totals from which the prizes
will be awarded.
The greatest opportunity to secure
a big vote and the lead in the great
subscription drive of The Times-Ret
corder ends tomorrow night at 10
O'Clock, Saturday, April 49, The cam
paign will close one week from Sat
urday night, and next week there are
no club offers, no prize ballots, and
nothing but the regular vote will be
issued on subscriptions paid in the
regular way.
The ten prize ballots offered for
the ten largest amounts sent in dur
ing the two weeks, from April to
10 inclusive, one million votes going
to the lady having the largest amount
to her credit, 100000 to the second
100000 to the third. 100000 to the
third, 100000 to the fourth, 100000,
fifth, 100000, sixth, 100000, seventh,
100000, eighth, and 100000 to the
ninth, is the very best opportunity
that the contestants will have to ge,
in he lead and stay there until the
close next Saturday week.
Cp to this time it looks as though
the amounts that will win the ten
prize ballots will be comparatively
small. No one contestant has turned
in during the two weeks any but small
amounts, and the business that comes
in Saturday, April 49, will be the de-
Gliding feature and will in all proba-
bility be the decisive vote to win the
bort car or any of the other prizes
There are II prizes and those who dc
not get a prize will secure cash
award, provided they are active up to
the very close of the campaign.
The New and Second Payment will
be the closing features of the Cam
paign. In each of these years
subscription gets $4,000 extra votes,
for being either a new or second pay
ment subscription. To be a second
payment, the subscriber must have
paid some candidate previously in the
contest. It is not necessary for the
candidate who received the first sub
scription to get the second one, for 1t
to be second payment. The new
feature is similarJ50,000 extra votes
being given for each new subscriber,
turned in at any time of the campaign
SHOULD READ ONE YEAR NEW EFT
The rule on second payments says
that second payment gets all the
votes which the first payment got, plus
the extra $4,000 All candidates re-
ceived 100000 votes on the first sub
scription they truned in. This rule
holds good here, and if this person
can be remembered, and second |
yearly payment gotten, it will get the !
same vote as the first or 100000.
The Campaign closes on the night |
of April 26, 1919, and it is hoped to
have all votes cast by p. m. ON that |
night, so that the judges may finish |
the count in time for the prizes to be
awarded that night.
