PAGE EIGHT “START OF CON Appeal of Bismarck Tribune’s Prize List Has Not Failed to Meet With Generous Res- ponse in the City—Imme- diate Action and Ambition the Most Important Factors Needed to Win Carried to a high point of enthu- siasm by the glad tidings spread before the eyes of the reading pub- lic, in the pig announcement of The Tribune’s mammoth offer to give away $10,000 worth of prizes and cash commissions, the people of this community have not failed to see the extraordinary opportunity presented by these publications to win a fine motor car or one of the other 25 awards and are responding most readily. No greater promise of the suc- cess of this campaign could be ex- hibited than that shown as a result of the first announcement. But! have YOU entered ’the race, and if not why not?? Ask ‘fourself ‘this question and see whether, in justice to yourself, yon can advance any good and valid reagon why you are not in line for one of these three luxurious motor cars or one of the other ten awards, Not one of the thousands ‘who read'these lines, but will admit' they have’ had a long cherished ambition to own a motor car.’ This campaign; offers you your one big chance to satisfy that ambition. To attempt to secure a-car in any other way is to mean hard work, skimping and saving a long, long period and even then there is'an'evén chance that something will intervene just at the most opportune! time. “Not so, in ENTHUSIASM MARKS FORMAL * TEST FOR AUTOS | the government was sustained by the Illinois supreme court, filed a petition | for a rehearing.

You are simply asked to do a little pleasant work in the interest of The Daily Tribune for a period of a few weeks in a subscription building cam- paign, in which you pit your quali- ties of salesmanship against that of your competitors, Cash Commission Paid You are protected absolutely from loss of even the time you put into this campaign, for in the event that you should fail to place your name among the prize winners, you would still be paid a commission of 10 per cent, according to the rules of the campaign, on the amount of subscription cash you had turned in on all subscriptions. Never before, and prdbably never. again, will an opportunity present itself whereby you can gain 80 much and still not take the slight- est chance of loss, It all simmers down to a question of ambition and energy. If your fingers itch to take your pencil in hand and fill out the nomination blank, that is the prompting of your ambition. Fol- low it. Once started in the race, only energy and tenacity of pur- ‘pose will be heeded to carry you through to success, as in any other line of endeavor, one success will beget another, the securing of one subscription will make it just that much easier to get the next one. | No, this ig not a “something-for- nothing” affair. We have never claimed it was, but we do claim and that emphatically, that honest and persistent effort will be more handsomely rewarded in this cam- paign than in any other line of en- deavor. \ Take Time by Forelock Some folks seem to think they have not time to go into the race and win. Let us say to these peo- ple, and the history of newspaper circulation campaigns will bear us out in the statement, that the really busy people are the ones’who most often carry off the most desirable, prizes. The really busy persom,cnot the’ one ‘who ‘makés’ this: at?excuse for lack ‘of ambition, or ‘tees it as a cloak for laziness, but’ the person who rgally does thingé, lias learned to appreciate thé'value of time and consequently they make every min- ute count, with the result that in a campaign of this kind as well-as in every walk of life, they outstrip their rivals through their intensiv efforts. 4 ‘The names of the ‘early entrants will appear in the’ Tribune’ some time during the next week or two, and the list will be watched by thousands in this community. See that your name or that of a friend appears in one of these early lists, for the second list will be published soon. To have your name in this list is to notify your friends that you are out after one of those five snappy automobiles, and also to serve no- tice on them that you will appre- ciate their support in-form of a subscription and the 60-free vote coupons and these will be published daily, Stop “thinking it over”—get into the race with both feet, and win one of the 25 big prizes.

Trading was restricted, investors apparently being disposed to await the settlement of the coal and rail strike before indulging in extensive market: operations, but attempts of short interests to bring out liquid- ation were met with sturdy resist- ance, The government's report of bump- er crop conditions, imparted strength to shares of most grain carrying rail- roads, most of which advanced to new high records for the year, with sympathetic gains in such stocks as International Harvester, Advance Rumely preferred, Sears-Roebuck and Montgormery-Ward, which will benefit by the, increased earnings of northwestern farmers. The increase of 146,360 tons in the unfilled July contracts of the United States Steel Corporation was inter- reted as being due-to increased production resulting from the coal shortage gather than to an increase in new orders. Weekly iron and steel reviews continue to give pessi- mistic reports of conditions in that industry, which is suffering from its inability to get sufficient coal. Further price cuts in the auto- mobile industry, reflect the season- al quieting down of demand and pro- duction, The action of the senate in increas- ing the tariff on Cuban Sugar caused a decided weakening in the prices of those stocks but they rallied later ‘on reports of the fine statistical con- dition of that industry. Leather and shoe stocks 10 improved on Sen- ator Lodge’s announcement hides and leathers would be on the free list on the new tariff bill. Fluctuations in the call mioney rate between 3% and 5 per cent were ascribed to the seasonal demand for funds in the agricultural districts, but the supply was plentiful at all times. Foreign exchanges were un- settled at the beginning of the week on the unfavorable news emanating from the meeting of allied premiers in London, but they strengthened later on the prospects of an agree- ment being reached on the repara- tions question. Business in foreign exchange was virtually at a stand- still because of cable congestion, lo- cal banks experiencing long delays in their European bacles. CAR SHORTAGE AFFECTS MILL CITY RECEIPTS Some Mills Close Down Be- cause of Short Supplies. Rye in Good Demand (By the Asnoclated Press) Minneapolis, Aug. 12.—Receipts of wheat have been on the increase, the bulk of which has been new crop wheat. Weakness in the wheat market was due largely to the lack of export de- mand, export business being cur- tailed by the disability of several trans-Atlantic cables which land on the Irish coast. While receipts of wheat. are some- what increased at the present time, very little wheat is reported in tran- sit for Minneapolis, and many re- ports are being received of the in- ability to obtain cars for loading. The situation in the southwest is re- ported so acute that some mills are being closed down for lack of cars. New durum is being received from many South Dakota points and a few from North Dakota. Like the spring wheat it has heavy test weight, but much of the durum is badly mixed with spring wheat and red durum. The milling demand is very limited and is easily supplied with a few cars, { Rye has been in very good. demand, the bulk of the receipts being taken from 5 to 6 cents over the Minne- apolis, September rye future, which has ranged during the week from 65 to 67% cents. New oats are showing better average test weight than the old oats. Flax is quoted nominally on spot at 20 cents over September future, which closed Friday at $2,88%, Arrivals are all being ap- plied on previous sales, and the only trading at the present time is to.arrive. New barley has not been received in any volume. During the first part of the week there was a light export business, which caused the lower qualities to advance but at the close of the week the prospects of increased arrivals of new barley caused a somewhat easier feeling in the lower Erades, _ The prospect of a big wheat crop is. responsible for the waiting atti- tude of many flour buyers, Sales have been somewhat slow for this period of the year although the mills continue to run 50 to 60 per cent of capacity on old orders.
