Subscriptions Easy to Secure
Subscriptions will be easy to secure, as you do not have to secure the full price of the
yearly subscriptions in advance, but al) that is necessary is that you get the new subscriber
to sign an agreement to take The Georgian for one year and collect for three months in ad
vance. which would be $1.30. and the subscriber will agree Io pay 10 cents per week for
the other nine months. The price of The Georgian is $5.20 per year on and after April Ist
when delivered by carrier. This is 10 cents per week whether paid in advance or hr the
week. Be sure that you understand this proposition. You secure 25 now subscriptions to
The Daily Georgian, to be delivered by carrier in the city of Atlanta and suburbs, for one
year each, and as evidence of good faith on the part of the subscribers that they will take Tim
Georgian for the full time they are required to pay for three months in advance, or $1.30.
and after the three months has expired they are to pay the carrier at the rate of 10 cents
per week for the other nine months
Bear in mind that this proposition is open to the White people of Atlanta and suburbs
only, and for new subscriptions only. It is not a hard matter to get 25 new subscriptions,
especially when they do not have to pay for the full year in advance. For 50 subscriptions
we will give yon two trips, or one trip to Niagara Falls and Toronto. Canada Call at the
Contest Department of The Goergian and full particulars, together with samples and re
ceipt book, will be given you.
For Outside Contestants
To those residing outside of the city of Atlanta and suburbs we offer a free trip to
Wrightsville Beach for 20 paid in advance subscriptions to the Daily Georgian at the
regular rate, $5.00 per year, or for 30 subscriptions to the Daily Georgian paid in ad
vance we will give you a trip to Niagara Falls and pay al) your expenses. The reason we
offer you a trip for less subscriptions is because of the fact that you must secure the full
price of the paper for a year in advance. The Georgian will be senl by mail to all sub
scribers who pay five dollars and by carrier where same is paid for at the carrier rate of
$5.20. Subscriptions must be paid in advanee or they will not count on this offer. This
offer 's open to any white person of good moral character over fourteen years of a.v-e. It
is not a hard matter to secure the necessary number of subscriptions, and those who" enter
the rontest now can easily secure the number of subscriptions required without much
of an effort. Three old subscriptions count the same as one new subscription.
