Voters are urged to support a friend in a contest without cost to patrons of this paper. The notice outlines how to cast a vote through the voting schedule and mentions securing subscriptions to back the effort, though the text is garbled and hard to interpret fully.
The Observer announces a contest open to anyone over 12 with restrictions on employees. Nomination forms grant 1000 votes, promote mobilization of friends, and urge daily subscription sales across the world. Prizes distributed by district with trips to Portland Rose Festival and other awards.
