The second period of Thq Frontier’s contest closed at .6 p. m. Tuesday night with Miss Hazel McPharlin t he winner of the Gold Watch and Miss Mildred Wertz winner of the Gold Bracelet Set. Others won Gold Crosses and Chains and still more were within easy reach of the prize winners and could have won easily with just a little eilort. However the big contest is just now creating the greatest Interest and with tne next period, which gives promise of being the banner period of the Contest, we hope to develop some interesting rivalry. Many candidates did not actually get into the race un til the last few days when urged by their friends and neighbors who saw the great possiblity ahead of them and were dually persuaded to work. It’s the only way to win. The new special, beginning with today, gives everyone,even new can didates, a chance to enter and try to win this beautiful set of furs. What more could one want as a gift from a friend and how much nicer that you you may enter the contest yourself, gather subscriptions for one week, and if you have more money to your credit than any one else on the date of Dec. 13th., taken between the two dates of Dec. 4th. and Dec 13th., you will be awarded this handsome set of furs. This beautiful set of White Tibet furs was purchased at Mr. P. J. Mc Manus’ store and are the prettiest set that could be found, tlio Mr. Mc Mannus is willing to exchange for a dark set of furs if the winner would prefer it so. The contest manager was undecided when she saw ihe many beautiful things in McMannus’ store that would make a real suitable prize but decided on the furs as some thing lasting, always beautiful and a source of delight to the wearer. Don’t forget, the votes you pile up trying to win the special prizes all count toward the Automobile to be ; awarded Dec. 20th. I POPULAR INTEREST. j 1 Ttie interest shown by tna general public in the big circulation campaign i is truly remarkable, and, of course, very gratifying to the Frontier. i Nearly every mail brings in votes'] for the various candidates and every ’ clay many subscriptions are paid at 1 the ollice, the subscriber casting the ( votes for some one of the candidates, i The fact of the matter is, that some * if the contestants have had more votes sent in for them by their friends . than they have obtained for them selves, which is a good indication of 1 what a little personal effort wou.'d do, md there is plenty of opportunity for my one to be a big winner in this ■ Jontest by tacking up the interest of : heir friends by their own interest md activity in getting votes. There is always room for more in ■ mything—no one ever stops trying to 1 ive because there are many others ] vorking for tiie same thing, but some ; vork harder than others and conse- i luently get more. This big Contest ! s no exception. Now is the time to ! :et into it right.
