people not now taking paper. IF YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND—ASK. You can
secure new subscriptions from any place and may employ any means you see fit in
order to get subscriptions. You can write letters, make personal calls and tele
phone. Plan a systematic campaign and you will be sure to meet with success. It is

for its face value—those now being printed are good for 25 free votes. You can
nominate yourself or a friend, if you wish—in fact, you can nominate more than one
