entering the Sentinel campaign ; ~ now Those who are already in I the race know a good thing when • V thev see it. It takes initiative,! 1 work ACTION— to win. But you can't lose by trying. Everybody Wins Now get this straight — EVERY- , ROPY WINS— either a. valuable award ■ ' a commission check. Positively no one will work for nothing if they remain active. The cash commission arrangement ($1 , on every $5 collected) removes the last vestige of chance — there will lie no losers, if they remain active. Why These Big Prizes Circulation is the life blood of - a newspaper— the more circulation i the more business. It costs little „ more to produce 10,000 copies than . 5.000. Briefly — the Ocean City Sentinel - —wants more circulation anil has selected the "Salesmanship Club" r as the best ami quickest method to . gain this end. We; want the iivest men and women in the community ' to be interested in the Ocean City e Sentinel and have selected' prize* | that will appeal to livewires. ( We arc not offering a "something for nothing" scheme — in fact, 1 it is not a scheme at all. It is a' I businev. proposition drawn along | such liberal lines that those who fail to take advantage of it are I overlooking the biggest opportun- t ity that may ever come to them, i It is not a test of popularity, it is. . n«t a voting content. This cam- i paign simply puts a" premium on salesmanship, and those who make , the best records wrill I* paid as ; they have never been paid before. , Quick Action Necessary The importance of an early start ; cannot I* overestimated.

.STANDING OF CONTESTANTS I he rare is just getting started. The secund count of ballots is shown. below. Note that no one has a devilled lead. Considering the fact that 50.000 ENTRA CREDITS are is.urd for every $20 worth of subscriptions, it rnn be seen at a glance that it is any one's race up to now. Just a few sub- riptions make a new leader. Next count will he made Saturday at s x. and the result published in Monday's hand bulletin.

of cnthusiumii has mani 'ost itself for the prd^ct and those in charge have every confidence that the close of the month will s • the new hotel stock fully suhseri'-ed for. The fact that the Fli.nders has been occupied to its amiable capacity continuously since its opening less than a month ip will undoubtedly make the demand for these securities very much greater than in the project of a year ago when nothing more tangible than visulization of today's fine new hotel could lie shown the citizens. In the enterprise about to open they can already see wbere their money is going. They can see also definite, tangible returi on their investment. This, at least, is the opinion of those who are putting their energies and enthu- iasrn back of the enterprise. There can be no question of the success of this final venture. Ocean City did not fail a year ego. Ocuan City will not fail today.
