STAGE ALL SET FOR
THE BIG DRAWING
__________
Prizes From f.ight Firm« Will
be Drawn Wednesday—
Balance on Thursday
Next Wednesday afternoon at
2:30, xo the merchants tell us (and
they ought to know), the first of
the drawings for the prizes will take
place from a truck in front of Gill’s
•tore. Some child will be blind
folded and each box from each place
of hudncft» will be opened, and the
third ticket out wins the first prize,
the next ticket the second prize, the
next ticket the third prize. There
will bo only five tickets drawn from
each box unless the holder of the
lucky ticket and n-mt member of his
fireside is absent, or he or she has
just won a prize from that box,
when the drawing will continue un
til the lucky holder is found.
The reason for drawing from the
individual box is obvious, because
the patron of that store has placed
his name in that box with the hope
he might win one of the prizes from
that store. As the day draws closer
buying is becoming more spirited,
and the outlook is for a large crowd
tn town on these two days. We un
derstand tickets will be given until
2 o’clock on both days.
