TO OUR READERS
How many objects the names of which begin
with the letter "V can you find in this picture?
It's a big game in which everybody can take
part. Who can find the most such objects? -Take a
pencil and get busy. Everyone in the home, Pa, Ma,
Bobby, Mary Ann, Grandma and Uncle Bill. First
see who gets the most at home. Then combine your
list and send in the big list to the Enterprise office
and if your list has the largest number of correct
words you get a prize of $3.00.
But if with your answer you send in for one
year's subscription to The Enterprise you get $15.
If you send in two subscriptions you get $25.00 as
first prize ; and if you send in three subscriptions in
cluding one new subscription you get $35.00; and
if you send four subscriptions, including two new
ones, you will receive $50.
If the subscriptions are for the weekly edition
of the Enterprise, the prizes will be awarded on the
basis of one-half the amount paid for daily subscrip
tions. Schedule of subscription rates printed else
where on this page.
See table of prizes elsewhere in this announce
ment. There is no hitch or trick to this puzzle. It is
easy and 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. You
will want the paper for another year anyway so you
might as well get into the second class. But to make
the game really exciting and worth while get into
the third class by sending us a new subscriber; or
better still, into the fourth class by sending us. two
new subscribers and win a prize of $35.00. With
very little effort you can break into the fifth class
and qualify for the $50.00 cash prize.
It's going to be some fun. Now who gets the
big prize? Can you find 50? Probably even
more ?
