Great Yuletide Subscription and Trade Building Campaign Opens
Direct from the Chicago factory, a prize instrument will go to the lady with the second highest votes in Comanche and adjacent counties as the Great Yuletide Subscription and Trade Building Campaign runs to December 24, 1912. Merchants may join via Comanche Chief and Pioneer Exponent, receiving coupons worth twenty five votes per dollar spent, numbered for fairness, and bearing the merchant’s advertisement. Coupons cost 50 cents per thousand votes, or one quarter of one percent of each dollar purchase, covering campaign costs with the merchant paying only twelve fifty per thousand dollars of business during the campaign. The plan aims to draw new trade and benefits both the town and participating merchants, with all prizes paid by the paper’s management. Contact a manager to close a contract and enter early.
