All Others Get 20 Per Cent.

After holding unwavering interest
in Plentywood and throughout Sher-
idan county for the past few weeks,
The Plentywood Herald's big sales
club subscription drive came to an
official close last Saturday night,
October 81, and the strain everyone
connected with the affair has been
under, was happily relieved.
1t was strenuous time all around,
and an exciting one, to be sure, but
now that the end has been reached
and the winners named, everyone is
pleased and satisfied.
Naturally, the great struggle was
for that splendid Essex Super-Six
Sedan-the grand capital prize. The
Herald offered the best prizes there
were to be had. We were willing to
pay literally for good work and we
got it, for never before in this Sec
tion of Montana has there been such
an all-round subscription drive as the
one just concluded by this newspaper
The aggregate vote totals enormous
figures, representing thousands of
new and renewal subscriptions and
as result Of the campaign The Her.
aid goes into practically every home
in the county-just the kind of cir
culation that does the advertiser the
most good.
The Herald Thanks All
To those new readers, and our old
ones as well, whose patronage made
this campaign the success it was, the
Herald is indeed grateful and indebt-
II T., 1c L. Ill xl~~.,
and the paper itself the public is en-
titled to the most emphatic thanks
for the good will shown during this
campaign.
AS to the winners, the figures
speak for themselves. To those whose
energies carried them through to
success, the Herald extends hear
tiest congratulations We are proud
of the workers in this Sales Club
subscription drive.
While the prizes themselves were
remarkable for their value, there are
other considerations to be taken into
account. During the campaign par
ticipants have learned much that will
be of value to them. They have
made new and pleasant acquaintance

ideas along business lines and most
of them have developed sense of OBJ
servation that will pay further divi-
dends.
Some Losers Necessary
Of course it is inevitable in COM
petition of this kind that all can not
win first prize. That was an under
stood fact at the beginning of the
race. To accomplish a given pur-
pose great amount of energy is
needed, and fortune seems to lavish
her richest gifts upon those who are
equipped to carry out the mandates
of ambition.
In conclusion we wish to say that
our relations with the Club members
have been very pleasant and we have
enjoyed every minute of the work.
They in turn have dealt with an or
ganization, The Associated Bureau of
Circulators, 901 Rush Street, Chicago,
Illinois, which, to the best of it's abb
ility made the race one long to be
remembered for its wholesome char
acter and fair dealing. 1t was great
race, and it leaves in bold relief that
cardinal virtue-AMBITION.
The Sealed Ballot Box
Under lock and seal, the ballot box
remained in the vaults of the Riba
State Bank during the entire last
week of the race. At 10 o'clock
sharp-right on the dot-the race
was declared closed
The judges took charge of the box
and in the counting room of the Riba
