In The Newnan Herald's Great Automobile Contest
A Week of Unusual Interest For Every
Contestant in the Race—Booster
Period Now Over.
WK TOLD VOL* SO. Now that “Booster Period” is
history—passed and gone there are a few amongour con
testants that did not make the best use of this wonderful
period, and could Hey live those “Booster”’ days over
again would accomplish a great deal more than they did
during the days of “Booster Period.”
Prom the very beginning the Contest Manager has
tried hard to impress every contestant that, as manager
of this campaign, he will do everything Within his power to
make the work profitable and pleasant to all; and now,
realizing that there are a few who, if they had the oppor
tunity, would make better use of Booster Period than they
did, 1 am going to make you a very special offer, and if you
will take advantage of this you will regain much, if not all,
that you lost during Booster l’oriod. This offer is not go
ing to be altogether as liberal ns was Booster Period, but if
you will "GO TO IT” it will amount to about as much,
and will give you a chance to regain some of your lost op
portune ies.
NOW, BE SURE YOU GET ME!—FIVE DAYS
ONTO , beginning Saturday, March 20, and continuing un
til 9 p. m. March 25, the following Thursday.

This scale good only for the five days mentioned above.
You will see that is far under what we were offering
during Booster Period, but in order to make it possible for
you to earn as many votes, we are making you a still more
liberal offer.
READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY—IT’S WORTH
WHILE.
For every $5 that you remit for subscriptions during
the above-named days you will be given FREE a coupon
good for 50,000 votes. Be sure you get that. And now
just to see how much you are in earnest about this, we arc
going to put you to the test and see how much you value
this chance to pick up some extra votes.
To every contestant who will remit in person or by
mail EACH DAY on the following dates: March 20, 22,
23, 24 and 25, NOT LESS THAN $5 EACH DAY, at the
end of this period, (9 p. m. Thursday, March 25,) we will
award such contestant a PRIZE VOTE COUPON good for
150,000 votes. But, remember, this is a reward for daily
remittances of not less than $5, and in the event that you
fail to secure and remit this amount for subscriptions each
day you will in noway be entitled to this PRIZE COUPON.
NOW IS THE TIME TO DO SOME FIGURING.
Five days is a mighty short time. It will pass away
like a Hash, and just as soon as your eye gets on this re
markable offer you should jump into the field and get to
work, and get everyone else to working for you. Here’s
some opportunity, and it will tell in the closing hours of
this contest. No telling just what you could do. F'igure
on paper or anything you have within reach and see what
it will mean if you can make good now.
OPEN HOUSE EACH DAY WITH THE CAMPAIGN
MANAGER.
Come now and talk this over with him. Be sure that
you understand just what this offer is. Don’t be afraid of
imposing on him or of taking up his time—that’s just what
he is here for. His time is yours, whenever you want it,
and he has the same help ready for every contestant in this
race.
TAKEN AS A WHOLE, THE CONTEST THUS FAR HAS
BEEN A WONDERFUL SUCCESS.
Just what we predicted, and this is due mostly to the
good contestants that we have been fortunate enough to
secure. However, in the midst of all these live wires who
are doing things and getting results the Campaign Manager
can lay his hands on certain contestants who are not doing
their best, and he regrets to see this, when he knows that
they CAN do l>etter—that they have plenty of friends that
will help them in every way, and all they need is a little
more “ginger"—a little more confidence in themselves.
PRIZES ARE WORTH WHILE—THE PUBLIC WILL
CO-OPERATE NOW.
No contestant need be at the bottom for lack of sup
port. The prizes are enough to make it easy for'you to go
into the field and secure subscriptions, because the general
public now see what a wonderful offer this paper is making,
and, having watched the contestants work, they are get
ting enthused themselves and will not refuse their assis
tance.
NO LOSERS—AGAIN WE REMIND YOU OF THIS.
You may not win the automobile. You may not win
the S100 in gold. You may not win the $30 in gold. You
may not win the $20 in silver. But. if you are a bona fide
contestant, you will not have worked for nothing, as this
paper will pay you 10 per cent, of every dollar that you
turn in during the contest for subscriptions.
