ON THE HOME STRETCH!

Going up.
Swinging into line, all atngle with high hopes and
ambition candidates in the Press famous cam
paign have swelled their vote totals to wonderfully
high mark and from to the finish 1t Will be a
pretty exciting between the leaders
The first period of the campaign which closed Sat
urday night tremendous success. Tens Of thous-
ands yes hundreds Of thousands of votes were issued
and every "ve" candidate profited nightly.
II is q strange coincidence, too, and something un-
usual in affairs of this kind but each of the leading
candidates who is striving for first honors and the
grand prizes benefited equally during the period
Just closed that, without har-line figuring could to-
days leaders be determined
The competition, therefore, so far as the relative
standing of the candidates is concerned depends almost
entirely the results obtained by the various con-
testants between and the finish to who the uti
mate winners will be-
The above is not "rnere talk" for the sake of telling
but a real fact-theories Notwithstanding.
Hence, the struggle for supremacy will be fought out
during the few days. for the entire campaign comes
to fateful close in just a few weeks. The Second
period" closes Saturday, December 9TH
Imperial Valley press., 1922-11-27

During the "second PERIOD (these
next IL days. subscriptions will count
big; in fact, they count for almost as
many now as during the first period
Just closed. For example one siX-ycar
subscription, counting the 100000 extra
free votes allowed on Sl2 clubs, counts
100000 votes now, where formerly
100000 were given.
Better Be Safe Than Sorry
A few more laps and the course will
have been run. Only a short time re-
mains TO choose between victory and
defeat success or failure. Don't over,
loko single chance to better your OPP
portunity to win. Avail yourself of
every opportunity this period affords.
Think and plan constantly, for this
means success. Figure ways to win,
and always remember that your adver
saries, as keen perhaps and as resource
ful as yourself, are racking very acute
brains for the same purpose.
1t means something to win in com
petition of this kind. 1t means up to
1895 in the value of ear. 1t is a
demonstration of capacity that is ex-
traordinary. 1t proves a winning per
sonality. Sometimes it proves up the
yellow in your "bogus" friends,
but will reveal the true friends and it
always tests your nettlc and meaures
your strength.

FIRST and famous Jake Schaefer won
his championship before the present

said about Young Schaefer's won
