Last Chance for Big Votes
Twelve o clock Saturday night, Nov

Never again after this time will ii
DC possible to get the full voting pow

Ver of being declared the winner of
one of these splendid motor cars-se-
lans-to be awarded in just a few
weeks, do not fail to turn in every
available subscription to your account
before the closing OF the first period.
Not to do so simply means that YOU
will have to increase your efforts dur
ing the remainder of the race to make
up for lost ground. A few long term
mail subscriptions NOW may be the
very ones needed to "cinch' the big
yest of all prizes; they could hardly
lelp but win one of the larger awards.
The crucial test is now at hand. If
YOU ever intend to do anything BIG
