Ten O'clock Tomorrow Night
The Second Payment Schedule Is Closed Forever
Act Now or Never!

Ten o'clock tomorrow night Saturday, December
10TH marks the most critical and most important time
Of the great Christmas Gift Campaign of the Imperial
Valley Press.
Opportunity for second payment subscriptions,
emitting the candidates to first period schedule sub
scriptions which the initial payments made DUR
ing the first period, ends with this date.
The 10000 special bonus vote for new subscrip-
tons drops to 5000 votes
The regular schedule vote value drops to its min
imum with the passing of this period.
No event of the campaign from it's inception to it's
conclusion. is fraugh with the possibilities that tomor
evening can have for each and every candidate.
tie can be fought over next week. or two candidates who
almost side by side in the may change in
position but that is all that the last week promise.
Candidates. there are "a hours left for you to dem
onsrate to yourselves that you have the for
cess within you.
There are "a hours left for you to demonstrate
to friends that are worthy of the support they
have given you.
There are "a hours left for you to demonstrate
that you have right claim to the popularity that
makes prize winner.
What that "a hours will decide is up to you!
1t has been variously rumored that some new offer
of votes will be made at the last of the campaign in
order to invite last minute long time subscriptions.
That rumor must be exploded in your minds today.
This is campaign for increased circulation, not
campaign to dispose of six automobiles The campaign
far has found hearty reception and is passing
satisfactorily to successful finish. frt
1t would be breaking faith with many friends
to deviate in any way from the schedule announced.
Positively bonus votes of any kind will be offer
ed other than those already announced for next week.
Namely: The special ballot of 100000 votes for each
$1,000 in cash. Second the extra special ballot of 5000
votes for each subscriber turned in the last period
You will find the schedule of votes lower next
week than during the campaign.
This falling schedule has met with the hearty en-
dorsement of every thinking business in the I'M
pera Valley because of the reward offers for early
effort of the first workers AS the enthusiasm has
ntad t0 hntch whit hp IF fba
paign and subscriptions have become increasingly
easy procure the value of each subscription has
declined until in the white heat of next weeks enthus
iasm these votes will reach their very minimum.

Big Cattle Exhibit
Likely In Wilmington
Local Interest in Proposition to
Have International Hereford
Cattle Exhibit at Fair

With some of the finest herd of cat
tie of Delaware right in the vicinity
of Newark, local persons will be more
than interested to learn that definite
steps toward bringing to Wilmington
the exhibit of the International Here
ford Cattle Association have been
taken.
Representative of the Rotary, XII
wants and Lions Club of Wilmington.
together with representatives of the
Delaware State Fair Association met
at the Hotel DUPONT last week and dis
cussed the matter of trying to arrange
for the exhibit in conjunction with the
State Fair.
Frederick H. Brady, president of the
Fair Association acted as chairman of
the meeting and Macmillan Hopes,
secretary of LaMotte DUPONT describ
ed the excellence of the Hereford ex
hibit and the renown it has gained
wherever shown. He said that the ex-
hibit would be given in Texas in Oc-
tober and held in the East later.
There is good opportunity for Will
mington to obtain the honor of hold
ing it, he said, but it will be necessary
to underwrite the cost of the under
taking.
From Wilmington, the show will go
to Toronto, Canada, and from there
to Kansas City, Mo. The exhibition
if brought to Wilmington will be prac-
tically the only one in Eastern United
States.
The project was supported in short
addresses by Henry P. Scott, pres,
dent of the Wilmington Trust Co.,
S. D. Townsend, for the Fair Associa-
tion, Josiah Marvel and others. At
the meeting it was finally decided to
endorse the undertaking and leave the
arrangement Of details to a committee
of arrangements which will report
back to the organizations and other
bodies represented at the meeting.
1t is the hope of every cattle raiser
of Delaware that the exhibit can be
arranged for it will give an oppor-
tunity to them to see some of the
finest cattle in the country and many
worlds champions will be exhibited.
