Ono of the \‘r-ry quickest ways for
you to obtain votes, if you are a can-
didate in The Evening Sentinci,Cam-
paign. is to make a. second call upon
those folks who have already given
you a short-time subscription. getting
another to be credited when the first
expires. Those second payments are
called "extended subscriptions."
The big point in favor of thescaex-
tended subscriptions. is that. of the
extra. Votes they bring. In this way.
Say. for instance. you had obtained
:1 subscription for six months from
one of your friends. during the first
period when the subscription netted
you 10.000 votes. By glancing at the
schedule for this period you will note
the number given for a. one-your sub-
scription is 20.000 during this second
ported. If you secured on extended
subscription for six months from any
of the folks who gave you a six
months subscription previously. the
number due for the second payment
would be the difference between the
number given for the first six months
and those due for I. year. or 00,000.
A first paid subscription for six
months during this period nets but
8000 which shoes 3. gain of 2.000
votes for each subscription extende‘I
from six months to a year. Of course.
where the subscription is 'cxtended
from one year to two or three. the
proportional increase is much greater.
At any rate. these extended sub-
scriptions can help you greatly in your
.efforts to win. The race as a whole
is so even at the start of this second

' be.
period. that the difference in votes
that can be had from extended sub-
scriptions will be a. big factor in de-
ciding the winners of the prizes five
weeks hence. _
\Vhen you obtain one of these ex-
tended subscriptions. fill out another
blank in your SUDBC riptlon book in c.\-
actly the same way you did for the
first pay nlcnt. except that you mark
the slip that. comes to the campaign
office "extended." where it will be
sure to attract the attention of the
member of the campaign department
who is issuing your votes. It will not
mean that the subscriber receives two
papers. The records at The Evening
Sentinel office are changed to show
two payments. at which time the first
expiration date is advanced to corr
rl-spond with the full amount paid. no
matter what the length of time might
Don‘t overlook this big means of
vote getting. While you are making
your rounds in search of new pros-
pncts and new subscriptions, keep in
mind those who gave you a. previous
subscription. and when you are near-
by. ask for an extension. Many of
these people. particularly those who
gave you but six months the first
time, will be only too glad to extend
their subscription. knowing that it will
bring you even more votes than the
first. with a. distinct saving to them-
selves in the price of the paper. over
the amount paid if purchased daily at
the newsdealer's or it delivered by in-
