Honor Roll Extended. The honor roll has caused so much comment all over the territory, and u has seemed to do the campaign of those candidates so much good, who were so fortunate as to secure u post- j tloii on It, or mentioned in counection I with it, that it will bo continued the coming week only. Many deserving candidates during the last week came ia flimr makinir thn honor roll, and in i I tact. lo?t only by a short term sub- i scrlptlon In some instances, that the Golden Festival Manager teels thai they should have another opportunity to try for this roll of honor. The campaign for honor roll this coming week promises to be even more fust and furious than last week, for the entire public is aroused, watching it eagerly : and helping their fnvorite candidates. ; k It will be even more of a distinction j this week than last, for it will be cor respondingiy harder to make und will; be more eagerly watched in ull parts i of The Weet Virginian territory. The ; honor roll will positively close next j Saturday night, the 17th. There will , be no further extension of it under any f'.-drcumstanees. See that your name goea on the roster of Industry this The usual big two pouud box of the delicious Huylers chocolates from the Mountain City Drug Store will be awarded this coming week _ to honor - roll candidates. .

You must go in to win ' this week by all means. Start the week right, plan it all out befep-ehuud, and I-- then keep everlastingly' at ;t. You Ef cannot afford to let a single chance esj cape you this week. You simply must win, and this is the week you should obtain inch a load that none ran over^The announcement in today"* Weet 1 Virginian -will be of interest to all of the candidates and their friends. This gives the details of one of the greatest vote offers so far in the history of the Golden Festival. During tho coming two weeks the manager will give away thousands and thousands of free votes to the more energetic candidates.. Starting Monday and closing In two weoka, on Saturday, March 2".tb, to bo exact, at 8 o'clock In the evening, the Colden Festival Manager will give a big extra vote coupon, food for 40.000 votes, for each set of three six months' subscriptions to Tho West Virginian and each set of four yearly subscriptions to The Farmers Free Press. During this vote offer, a yearly subscription will count the same ns two for six months, and a two year subscription the same as four for six months, etc. A two. three or four months' subscription will not count on this vote offer, however, nut will count on the regular schedule, as heretofore.

Plan on securing just as many sets as you possibly can. This vote offer will not be extended after March 24th under any circumstances. The Public Is Voting. Every day there are dozens of people in the majiager's office, who desire to pay up their subscriptions and vote for some one in the Golden Festival. Some of those people don't can whom they vote for, only so they give It to some one who deserves it, and who is trying hard to win. As a result these people usually look over the list and vote for some one in their district who shows by her vote that she has a fighting chance. Very rarely do they vote for the topnltcher. but usually they pick out some one whom they know or who is second, third or fourth down the line. ThlB only goes to show how Important a small daily gain really ia. People are always anxious to help others who try to help themselves. Just let your votes grow every day in the paper it you would catch some of thos promiscuous voting. Votes will come from some of the most unexpected quarters In a campaign of the magnitude of this, for the Golden Festival is getting so it is the main topic of conversation everywhere that people gather.
