The Journal promotes a short campaign offering a $3000 prize pool and a grand 1920 Studebaker car for participants who sell subscriptions. Readers urged to act now, join live candidates, and earn 20 percent commission on funds raised. Prize list aims to attract residents of Shoshone and Lincoln County with substantial cash and merchandise rewards.
The notice proclaims a six week opportunity promising over 350 dollars weekly to the right person. It invites all residents of Shoshone Idaho to enter via a nomination blank in the issue, offering 5000 votes and a free working outfit after mailing in.
To win, fill the nomination blank on page one and deliver it to the Journal office. Call about a dozen friends who subscribe or renew to yield votes via voting coupons and renewals at $2.00 per year. Encourage renewals to avoid doorstep collectors and gain votes and prizes.
