GREAT VOTING CONTEST STARTS I LIKE A WHIRLWIND. j 4 j , Many Nominations of Popular Yound Ladies Already Made. FIRST COUNT WILL BE MADE APRIL 26th ---■ Get In The Race. So Many Splendid Gifts Give All An Opportunity. The big prize voting contest announce ment in these columns last week is crea ting more interest than we imagined it would a# the beginning. Nominations of contestants are being 9ent to this office and soon there will be many who would foe willing recipients of a fine $400 Obermeyer Piano or other valuable priz es enumerated in this list. All of these handsome prizes are enu merated in the announcement on page seven and will foe given to some of the ladles of Pleasantville and vicinity. The question is: how can I do it? Ajl that is necessary is to get your rel atives and friends to trade with the merchants \?ho are donating prizes in tins papular voting contest. For each $1.00 spent with the mer chants you will receive '25 votes which can 'be voted for any of the contestants. Also get your friends to subscribe for Tlie Pleasantville Press. For each one year new subscription you will receive 000 votes; for each one year renewal 500; for each year back subscription 400 votes. Of course it will foe understood that under ^no circumstances are cou pons issued by the merchants except up on cash purchases. We have been asked if the wife or daughter of 'merchants who are co-op erating with The Pleasantville Press in this voting contest may compete for prizes. The rules are that no one con nected with The Pleasantville Press of fice can compete for any prize, neither can the wife or daughter of any of the merchants who are co-operating with The Pleasantville Press in tihe contest enter the competition. The reasons for this are obvious, and we are very sure that tiie merchants will all feel just as we do in regard to the matter. We ; want the contest to foe conducted with the greatest possible fairness, with no occasion or opportunity for anybody to criticise. The ballot box is now at The Pleasantville Press office, ready to re ceive votes. The keys are in the hands of one of the judges. The box will not be unlocked until the first count is made on April 26th. The judges are abso lutely disinterested people, in whom ev erybody has confidence, and every count will foe participated in by a representa tive of the Publisihers’ Music Co., who are managing the contest. There will be no favorites and no changes for fav oritism. The lady who secures the lar gest number of votes will win the piano, and so on dowii for the rest of the pri zes. We'wish there were pianos enough to go round for all the girls, but there are not, and all hut one will have to be content with one of the many other beautiful prizes offered. Noting can commence at any time in a ballot box which is placed in this of fice and the key to the box will be given to the awarding committee whose names will be announced in another issue of this paper. Use the free vote coupon in this issue. If you know of any lady who has not1 been nominated and whom you think would make a good race use the nomi nation blank below and send her name to Tihe Pleasantville Press office or bring it in person and her name will be enter ed. It matters not if she is married or single. Read the rules in the large ad. in this issiue or w-e will mail them upon request. Inspect the offerings of the merchants and learn how you may secure votes for yourself or friend. Be sure to ask these merchants for coupons. Those who do not understand the rules and regulations of this contest, can call at this office or write us and we will he pleased to go over the proposition with them. EXTRA PRIZE OF $10 IN GOLD. • The first count in the contest will be made on April ’2dth, at which time $10 in gold will be awarded to the contest ant having the laTgest number of votes at that time. This prize is extra, in addition to the other prizes offered, and its winning will not bar the winner f rom securing the piano or any of the other prizes. DO IT NOW and help someone reap the benefits of this liberal offer. Re member that many of the merchants of Pleasantville are interested in this contest and give a 25 vote coupon with every $1 cash purchase. This contest is between individuals and no lodge Or other organization will be permitted to enter. This also means that no lady will be permitted to stjred as the candidate of any particular or ganization with the understanding if she wins the piano or other prizes it is to go to that organization. iSuch an ar rangement would be manifestly unfair to the other contestants. Any candidate so detected will be disqualified. Remem ber and have your friends trade with merchants who are giving coupons. The names of the merchants who are giving handsome prizes and helping to make this eontest a big success are as follows: MERVY1N WILSON, MAC MTLLAX STUDIO, THOS. F. CRAWFORD, WM. J. HOSBiAGH, MRS. M.

We guarantee to make the paper well worth the money of every subscriber, and we expect to hold all these new subscribers for many years to come. That is the only way we can make this contest make money for us. < -----~T ' | 25 VOTE COUPON |; I Send this Coupon to The Pleasantville Press office within | 1 5 days from date and it will count for Twenty-five Votes, j No money is required with this Coupon. ?
