TUESDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 20, 1925 WEDNESDAY NIGHT, OCT. 21ST, CLOSES THE EXTRA CASH PERIOD SPECULATE ON WhTtHE WINNER WILL BE! The Next 10 Hours I Can Be Worth S2O per Hour TO YOU I NOW HURRY! TIMES-RECORDER PRIZE CAMPAIGN BE- COMES RACE FOR REAL HUSTLERS; LEADERS STAND CLOSE AT CLOSE OF, PERIOD. Keen Work Necessary From Now On; To Halt F Jr One Moment These Few Remaining Days Would Mean Defeat For Any of Leading Can didates. Candidates in The Times-Recorder campaign have entered the last week in which it is possible forth «mto secure the winning votes on the ““double quick.” As close as the race stands at present, the current week, with its big vote possibilities, may be said for the hustlers to be the most important pe riod of the campaign. With the “Big Period” vote schedule and the Big Extension Vote Schedule in effect only four days after today, candidate should, and for the most part, are working almost night and day to take advantage of these liberal offers. This period—then—or rather these few days that are left of it—marks the last of the final opportunity for real votes. Next period subscriptions will count only as designated in the final or fourth period schedule, the smallest vote schedule of the entire election. This period then—or rather these next four days—will help in a great measure to determine the winners. Those candidates who work hardest and accomplish the most during these hours that remain will very likely hear their names announced as the winners of the bgigest PRIZE AND POPULARITY campaign ever inaugurated in the newspaper history of this lection. Watch them go. It will be interesting indeed, to see which three can go ahead of the others and remain there. GOING AT TOP SPEED The Times-Recorder’s SIO,OOO automobile and gold race has now nar rowed down to the point where only the “live ones” remain, each of whom is going at top speed to get all their subscriptions in before the lowest vote schedule of the campaign goes into effect. Such tremendous enthusiasm and energy was never before seen in any kind of a campaign as is being shown daily in this race for the automo biles cash prizes. There seems to be no limit to the “pep” that every candidate has stored up for the finish, which is but a few days away. Candidates who have formerly been the hardest workers are still go ing at it as if they had saved up all their energy for the big finish. Some candidates who in the past have been down in the list are showing real speed. This indicates that every single candidate in the list has plenty of “fight” left. It shows that the candidates who look “harmless” now will be among the strongest when the end comes. They are all watching the “oter fel low” and arranging and planning to go them all “one better.” Now that the “Second Period” votes have been counted and the lead ers are still closely bunched and considering how easy it is to pile up a big vote reserve during the week, there is comparatively little difference be tween the highest and lowest scores. TAKES BIG SCORE TO WIN This much is certain—whovere wins any of these automobiles wil prob ably do so by a narrow margin, though the winning scores will doubtless be large. If the present leaders are figuring that their leads are ample, they are due to disappointment when the winners are announced. With such a field of energetic workers it is certain that some of the most spectacular work of the campaign is yet to come. The “Never Say Die” spirit was nev er more in evidence at any time than it is right now. On Saturday night, October 31, the big list of prizes will be awarded to the best hustlers. The automobiles, the other awards and the large cash awards will be distributed just as announced at the beginning of the cam paign. There are just four more working days left after today—only four days after today until the lowest vote offer of the cmapaign goes into ef fect. BIG VOTE THIS PERIOD This period every one-year subscription counts 6,000 votes; a two ”par subscription counts 20,000 votes; a four-year subscription counts 100,- 000 votes, and a six-year subscription counts 240,000 votes. The club vote (100,000 votes for each sl2 in subscriptions turned in) is extra. This period there is a bonus of 15,000 votes given for each new subscription of a year or more. Just a mere handful o/ long term subscriptions will be sufficient to put candidates with the lowest score at the very top of the standings before Saturday night, October 24. OFFICE OPEN TILL 9 P. M. Election headquarters aat th eTimes-Recorder office are open each evening until 9 o’clock. Candidaates who wish advice should make it a point to call at this office to have their questions answered and all are to consult the election manager on matters pertaining to the campaign.
