A newspaper note promises 300 votes toward each year’s Times subscription as a prize for effort in a reader engagement drive.
A $25 Lady's Gold Watch with a gold filled case and 25 year guarantee is shown in Miller and Bachar's window. It features a Waltham movement, stem wind and stem set, and is presented by the well known jeweler Miller and Bachar.
The notice states all individuals of good character may compete, nominations may be self submitted, require candidate addresses, and be accepted until the contest end. Votes are issued for paid Carey Times subscriptions according to a vote schedule with coupons in each issue. Cash payments accompany all vote orders.
A $23.00 buffet from Wesley Patterson’s show window is the prize in a voting contest. The piece features leaded glass doors, a French beveled pattern plate glass design, and is described as a stylish, up to date furniture item ready for examination by calling to inspect.
A $22.00 Princess Dresser, touted as the finest solid oak furniture with an 18x40 French bevel glass, is on display at Jno McGuire’s. The item, praised for its beauty, is part of a contest and could be won after the exhibition ends.
A fine suit case of the best material is on display in Kennerley and Zahn's window. The article praises its usefulness and invites readers to call and examine this prized item available for purchase at six dollars.
Votes may be cast for subscriptions of twelve months or more and entry starts by submitting your name to the contest department for a receipt book. Participants must inform friends to save votes, with deposits allowed for subscriptions but names supplied later. The Carey Times may alter rules for majority benefit, but prize values and counts stay fixed. Employees and their immediate family are barred from participation.
