Now For The Final Struggle
Thrilt Club Ends Next Saturday Night at Nine
$1,200.00 In Prizes Waiting For Someone
At ten o’clock next Saturday night, April 3rd, it will all be over but the shouting. Where are you going to be when
the finish gong sounds? You can be a winner if you will make up your mind to be and will exert yourself during this last
week of the big $1,200.00 Thrift Club Campaign. The seventeen magnificent prizes are waiting for their owners. They
may be won by subscriptions representing but a small fraction of their value. It is really surprising that more people in this
community do not realize what a big opportunity is just about to pass them by. Are you going to be one of the stragglers
or a winner? It's up to you now—you can if you will—but there is less than one week left in which to do the needed.
Don’t make the mistake of putting off working any longer.
