APOLOGY e.r. ALE ! M But It must be Wsitemsts. v. a By the Judges of the Waitemata Ale Advertising Contest — >• The Contest Judges wish to tender an apology for the delay in selecting the best efforts .from the thousands of entries which poured in from all parts of New Zealand. Although the task proved far more arduous than anticipated, it nevertheless provided a great.: amount of pleasure and satisfaction, in as much as the originality and general merits of the entries constituted outstanding features of the contest. The element of humour added delightful touches, whilst tributes of general appreciation, not only of the advertisements, but also of Waitemata Ale, came from wholly unexpected quarters, from city and village in almost every district of the Dominion—from clergymen, doctors and lawyers from farmhands, barmen and stokers, with the result that the judges have found it necessary to ask for an extension of time in which to make their decision. > . The names and addresses of the Contest winners will be published, together with their respective comments, before the end of this month. \\ lu 4 • . ■ ■■ : iiits if £tj£• • ..1 . y.w -r ■7 t+hj*
