as much as big ones. Each day the ad appears counts as one vote, re
gardless of the size of the ad; For instance; A 1 0-1ine want ad for
one time will count as one vote, while a 2-line ad appearing five times
will count a five votes, although it cost the same as the 10-line ad
run one time. So get the ad to appear as m&ny times as possible.
At the end of the contest .the one having the greatest number of
votes to his or her credit, gets the first prize; the' one getting the next
largest number of votes, gets the second prize, etc.
