hazel McPharlin wins watch
Another Beautiful Special Will be
Given For Nine Days Work.
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.

Talk about the benefits of adverti
ng. Down in Florida not long ago
family lost a child which they
upposed had strayed away from home
nd got lost. After searching in vain
or three days the frantic parents
laced an advertisement in the near
st newspaper. Imagine the surprise
f the parents upon going to the door
he next morning to see a monster al
Igator upon the doorstep, where he
ad disgorged the child alive and then
led himself. The “ad” cost them
ut 25 cents, and it gave them back
heir darling child; they sold the al
igator hide for $5 and the parents are
howing the child in all the dime
Quseums of the land at f50 per week.
Joes advertising pay ?
