Page Mrs. George Colburn, BOT Mar
ion avenue!
She is probably the happiest woman
in Kenosha today!
She has just reason to be too for
she is the proud possessor of beau
tiful new Nash Special Sedan, the first
award in the subscription campaign
which has been carried on by che Ke-
nosha Evening News for the past sew
en- weeks and which closed on Satur-
day evening.
There are four other Kenoshans who
have almost equal reason for rejoic-
ing for they were also rewarded with
receiving new cars for 3heir standing
in the campaign.
One Gets Two Cars.
The second award, new Cleveland
touring car, went to Mrs. Earl Korf,
1915 Prairie avenue, who was also the
winner of the Overland touring car,
offered as a special prize to the one
receiving the most votes within CIV
en- period.
Third honors went to Elmer Stein,
awarded the 1920 Nash touring car,
with Policeman Edward LaPoint land
ing the fourth award, a Chevrolet
touring car. Fifth place was
gained by Miss Isabelle Boyer, who
was presented with Ford touring car.
There were no losers in the contest
for even those who failed to receive
cars were paid commissions on the
subscriptions which they secured,
these commissions amounting to as
much as $110 to some of the contest
ants. Checks Tor the commission
money will be mailed to the candi-
dates who did not receive awards
within few days. The total amount
paid in commissions was above the
$500 mark.
For Seven Weeks Effort.
The campaign started just seven
weeks ago and all the candidates en-
tered were splendidly paid for their
efforts whether they won awards or
not considering that they utilized
their extra time to work for the cam
paign.
During the campaign 1000 subscrib-
ers we're added to the Kenosha Even
ing News bringing the total run now
over the 300 mark daily.
