CONTESTANTS NOTICE HOW TO WIN THE PRIZE
How many objects, the names of which begin with
the letter "P." can you find in the above picture?
It's a big game in which everybody can take part.
Who can find the greatest number of such objects? Take
a pencil and paper and get busy. Everybody in the
home, Pa, Ma, Bobby, Sister Mary, Grandma and Uncle
Bill. First Fee who gets the most at home. Then com
bine your lists and send in the complete list to The Alli
ance Herald, Tuzzle Dept., Alliance, Neb., and if your
list has the largest number of correct words you get a
prize of $3.00. ,
But if your answer is the nearest correct and you
send $2.50 for one year's subscription to The Alliance
Herald, you get $12.50. If you send two subscriptions
you get $25.00 as first prize, if you send in three sub
scriptions (including one new subscription) you win
$50.00; and if you send in .four subscriptions (including
two new subscribers) you will win the grand prize
$100.00. It is almost as easy to qualify for the big
prizes and just look at the difference in the table above.
There is no hitch or trick to this puzzle. It is easy
and absolutely above-board. It's the contestant with
the sharpest eyes that will find the most objects and
win the big prize.
It costs nothing to try in the first class. But you
will want the paper for another year anyway, so you
might as well qualify for Class 2. Now to make the
game exciting you ought to get into Class 3 by sending
us another subscriber with your own or better still, into
Class 4 by sending us three subscriptions (including one
new one) and qualify for the prize of $50.00. And, hav
ing got this far, you can with very little effort break
into Class 5, and put yourself in line for the $100.00
cash prize.
