AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER WHO WILL BE WINNERS IN TIMES-RECORDER’S BIG GIFT RACE ? MANYPRIEDICTIONS MADE Frenzied Effort on Part of Hustling Candidates is Bound to Eliminate Some Laggards; Nine O’clock Saturday Night Fateful Hour Big Schedule of Votes in Effect This Week Makes Rapid Rise Possible; Race for Su premacy and Gifts Rushes Forward At the close of The Times- Re- |< corder’s circulation sales campaign I 1 and SIO,OOO Gift Distribution! 1 < draws neer scores of predictions are j being offered as to who will be the 1 , fortunate recipients of the valuable gifts, including luxurious autonw biles, splendid diamond rings and j other valuable gifts. Yet all these questions avail them not, for the I final result is as much as ever in 1 ' doubt. In a frenzied effort to eliminate ' as much of this doubt as possible, candidates all over The Times-De corder’s territory are scouring the the communities ceaslessly. From the waking hours of morn till the , .day is done, these ambitious candi- | dates arc fighting the battle conr- j lageously, never pausing, but keep- i jing at it that the tide of favor will 1 'sweep toward them. Stirring Scene* These Such stirring scenes as these, jwith such eager candidates filled I with the spirit of conquest, have 1 never had their equal in this ,ec- i Ition. The race for supremacy is rushing forward nip and tuck.! ] Many of those who appaprently I have no chance, if they be judged by their vote standing, promise to 'spring surprises that Will send the too confident ones down to defeat. [ Over confidence is the biggest I handicap under which a candidate can labor. 'This unwelcome attri bute causes more regrets than any thing else in a campaign of this na ture. The only way to be sure of [winning is to spend every minute possible scouring for subscriptions. ( Perseverance is the only living j living quality. Wonderful Gift* Await See what is at the top sos those competent to reach the pinnacle of their desire—luxurious cars, beauti ful diamond rings, Victrolas, Radio Sets, Watches and cash gifts, too. These prizes will make their owners proud. No luxury encompasses the delight of a motor car, and these particular models, included in the Times-Roecrder’s list stand out as motor car achievements in great splendor.

One candidate said yester day that she was making a thorough canvass of every subscriber she had previously secured, and thus far her returns have averaged better than 150 per cent. Extensions of subscrip tions previously given are valuable. Big Quel* For Votes I Determined efforts are being 1 brought into play to make an ex haustive “clean up” of the territory this week whle the biggest remain ing offer is effective. Candidates are darting thither and yon ever in quest of votes. We suggest you can well afford to make today, Thursday Friday and Saturday the most ac tive of any that have gone before, 'victory may crown your effrts. The [time is short—only three days aft- Jtr today till the close of the “second | period.”—yet any candidate can [make herself a winner in this short time. Put forth your best effort right now, this week, before nine Satur day, and when the sun sets on the ihlWl day, then you can reflect con- Itentedly that your work was a ' mighty effort, well put forth. This present week, this fatal period be tween now and Saturday night, is> a period filled' with tremendous possibilities—time enough for any ' one to make victory a certainty. Get started this morning—keep go ing and finish your campaign in a blaze of glory. This week promises to be the biggest of the whole* campaign. The time is short. Saturday night brings the fateful hour. Then but two short weeks remain two big vote credit slashes due within 3 psri&u Os seven days. There is no doubt but that a greater num ber of votes will be cast between now and midnight Saturday night than kt any othre time during the campaign. Participants are certain ly going strong, getting subscrip tions right and left, each preparing to “cinch” the leadership for his and her choice of gifts before Sat urday night. Circulation campaign headquart ers at The Times Decorder office will be open tonight until 9 o,clock to receive subscriptions and ' votes and to issue supplies. Candidates and their friends are welcome to call in the evening if more con venient. DISTRICT NO. 1 PAGE THREE 1,055,600 350,500 1,060,500 1.055,000 1,054,500 1,065,000 .1,080,500
