CENT REWARDS FOR THE BEST
THREE ANSWERS MADE THIS
QUESTION GIVEN OUR READERS

sition in business. We are always
confronted by some complex question.
The newspaper is asked all kind of
questions and now we are going to pay
aomeboiy to answer one for us. It is
not so much pay, but it beats nothing
and it will give you an inside view of
something about which you haven't
thought.
We ofTcr one dollar for the first prize,
a new one dollar bill, we ofTer two 1909
half dollars for the next two best ans
wers. We will close the contest the
end of this month and announce the
winner the first issue in November; it
nothing prevents.
Suppose you had a lot of subscribers,
•ay for instance 1 32. r >, who owed an
average of one dollar on their subscrip
tionsT Suppose this number of people
should come up and pay, what would
you do? Suppose they don’t come up
and pay, what would you do? How
would you get at the work ot solving
the problem
If they would pay we know wa’d
give a much better paper and we d be
happy, too. We think every one of our
subscribers are able to do it now and
we will appreciate an interest in this
contest. If you don’t want to enter it,
please see if you can’t send us a dollar
on your account, no matter if you live
in town or out in the country. Here's
thanking you in advance and trusting
we may see or hear from you real
Boon.
