That’s What It’s
Going To Take!
Candidates who “kid” themselves
into believing there will be lots of
time after this week, are going to
be sadly disappointed !
The Time Is Now or

Never---Why !
BECAUSE:
There will be no Extension or New
Bonus Votes after Saturday, Oct.

THURSDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 22, 1925
. The S2OO Extra Prize Offer which closed last night, was indeed a neck
and neck affair. Not until after an accurate check and double-check
could the winner be determined, and then in tw ocases the point count was
’ so close that a few subscriptions would have changed the completion of the
final findings. The winner of the special cash has nothing to burst any
buttons about because there were several others who were mighty close run
ners-up. In fairness to all canddiates the number of points of the win
ner will not be published until the final vote is published.
VICTORY OR DEFEAT, WHICH? REAL SUC

Times-Recorder’s Campaign Gains Momentum As Time of Close
Nears; Today, Friday and Saturday All That Remain of Last
Big Vote Opportunity
1
ADVANTAGES EARNED BY SATURDAY BIG
FACTOR; SHOULD BE HARD TO OVERCOME
Six-Year Subscriptions Until Saturday Are Worth Over 600,000
Votes Each; Two Credit Over 1,200,000; Extensions
Are Valuable
Three days remain—today, Fri
day and Saturday—of the third and
next to the final period in The
Times-Recorder circulation sales
empaign and SIO,OOO Gift Distribu
tion. Saturday, the all-important
day looms up in full before every
candidate who is striving for one of
the big beautiful, luxurious motor
cars, diamonds, an 3 other prizes or
purses of cash.
The big third period comes to an
end on the stroke of nine Saturday
night. Big votes end Saturday night
at nine o’clock. The extension and
second payment vote privilege ends,
too, promptly on the stroke of nine
Saturday night. Circulation sales
campaign headquarters will be open
Saturday night until nine o’clock and
turns-ins by mail will be accepted if
postmarked before nine o’clock Sat
urday. The last substantial bonus
for the new subscriptions ends Satur
day night also. The final week sees
the lowest of all vote schedules in
effect with no final favors.
Make Winning Effort Now
The time is short. Three days are
left on the period. A day lost now
may be won or lost from effort or
lask of it this week. Today, Friday
and Saturday may put you across the
victory line. It is up to you, youself.
A good lead secured this period
should be next to impossible to over
l come the final days of campaign.
I This campaign momentum. Today
is is going strong. The campaign
| started off slowly and everybody
, seemed to be sleeping. But now all
| this is changed and never has a cam
paign in the section of Georgia wax
led so warm. In some cases more
| than gifts alone are at stake.
Are Turning Every Stone
Candidates are turning over every
stone that might conceal a few winn
i ing votes. Some are traveling the
. country far and wide in search of
[subscriptions. Others are concentrat
[ ing on a definite territory. Hustle
ihere and hurry there seems to be the
slogan this week for ail the workers.
It is this spirit which has made The'
d. R. circulation sales campaign one
of real activity—so much so chat
real honor will be due the ones who
come out victorious.
The big subscriptions are what
count the most now. One new six
■year subscription with clubs,, counts
I more than six hundred thousand
(600,000) votes until Saturday night
Two such subscriptions will produce
more than one million two hundred
thousand (1,200,000) votes Five
new six- year subscriptions will
credit you more than three million
(3, 000,000) votes. Ten new six
lyear subscriptions this period will
give you more than six million
(6,000,000) votes.
Must Keep Active
C andidates, your campaign is in
your own hands. Your campaign is
up to you. You alone are to blame
it you neglect it. This we know,
candidates are producing as never
I before. Turn-ms were never greater.
llf you cannot write up subscrip-
I tions the fault must be yours for
I others are accomplishing. You have
| three days yet this period to do
.something—today, Friday and Satur
| day.
Watching “Otter Fell ow”
Nn doubt some of the candidates
who today look “harmless” will be
among the strongest when the end
comes. They are all watching the
other fellow and arranging and
Planning to go them better.
This much is certain—whoever
wins any one of those gifts will pro
bably do so by a very narrow margin
through the winning scores will
i doubtless be large. If present leaders
are figuring that their leads are suf-
I ficient they are due for disappoint
i me, 't when the winners are announc
ed. That present credits of any
single candidate will not be large en
ough to win any one of the stellar
gifts is our prediction today. Now,
in the face of that, if you can remain
inactive this week, if you can stand
idly by and let someone else earn
the gift y OU wan t then you do it
with your eyes open and the results
should be no surprise to you.
Big Subscriptions Count Most.
Thebig subscriptions are what
count the most now. Get the two,
three, four, five, and six year sub
scriptions—they are the greatest in
A °te values. And are six years sub
scriptions are supreme over all. Ex
tensions, too are worth thousands of
votes while the extension schedule
is effective up to Saturday night.
Subscriptions make more votes
this week than the same subscrip
■ tions can earn you if you wait uptil
' next week to turn them in. Make a
: thorough canvass for a big finish —•
i a wiwnning finish.
