All hands on deck, Northland crs! Here’s a golden opportunity to win 10/-. The Bargain Stores Benefit Bail is to be held in the Whangarci Town Hall on July 20, This is being arranged specially for the Orphanage Fund, and the promoters have high hopes of it bringing our total past the half-way mark. And so it should. The Mayor and Mayoress are giving the ball their patronage, and the dance bands of Whangarei, through the Whangarei branch of the Musicians’ Union, have given their support to a man. No pams will be spared to make the Ball the nest of the year, and with admission prices reasonable, Whangarei will respond. Tickets are priced at 3/- for men, and 2/6 for ladies, 5/- being the price for a double ticket. “This ball is to help Northland ers, and we want young' Northlanders to help us,” remarked one of the sponsors to Kupe mis morning. “They’ve worked so splendid ly already, that we know hoys and girls need little encouragement. but just to make things more interesting, weTe offering two lb/- prizes and want to arrange a ticket selling competition. We’ll award one point for each 2/6 or 3/- ticjcef sold, and two points for each 5/- tic ket, and for the boy wno gets most points by July 20 there is a 10/- prize, and there is also a' in/- for the girl with the most points.

Here’s a golden opportunity to win 10/-. “I’m glad there’s a prize specially for boys,” Princess Raranga remarked. “The poor old chaps wouldn’t have a chance otherwise!” “I like that. Needless to say I took the part of warriors.” “We’ll see what we shall see,” the Princess said, finite sure of herself. And so, boys, it's a challenge. Who’ll sell the most tickets, boys or girls? Write to Mr Johnstone, Bargain Stores, Whangarei, for supplies of tickets. They’ll be available by Friday. And with the tickets in hand get busy. Remember there’s a 10/- prize in the olhng.
