ART UNION WINNERS
Identity of the “Three M’s” Dominion Special Service. Auckland, May 2. The winning.'ticket in the “Ltlcky Cat" art union, which was drawn on Tuesday, was held by a syndicate of three employees of the Farmers’ Trading Company, Limited—Messrs. F. L. Moyland, P. McDonald, and R. Mcllwraith, All three are elated by their success. They were very reticent, and attempted to keep the fact secret, but the news soon leaked out among their friends and fellow-employees. The ticket was bought from a streetseller during a tea-hour stroll one Friday evening.. It was taken under the nom de plume of “Three M’s,” the initial letter of each of their names. By a strange coincidence another ticket with the same nom de plume was bought from the same vendor, and as it was held in the country an Auckland man and his wife considered that it might possibly be one in which they had a share. However, their hopes were dashed by the receipt of a telegram from the holder-of the ticket.
