ART UNION WINNERS
MOTHER AND DAUGHTER FIRST PRIZE OF £2OOO SURPRISED AT GOOD FORTUNE "It .is the first time we have ever won anything like this," said Mrs. F. R. Heath, of 30 Church Street, Ponsonby, one of the holders of the winning ticket in the "My Lucky Dream" art union, which was drawn in Wellington on Monday night. "We were not expecting it and it came as a bit of a shock." V The second holder of the ticket was Mrs. N. Carson, of 8 Huntingtreo Avenue, Sandringham, daughter of Mrs. Heath. The ticket, number 41406, was purchased under the pseudonym of "Just Our Luck," by Mrs. Carson, from a stationer and news agent in Ponsonby Road. "It came just at the right time," continued Mrs. Heath. "We are uncertain what we will do with the money, but I think I will take a trip with my share." ■ ■ . .
Mrs. Heath said that she and her daughter had been taking a ticket in the art unions regularly, but this was the first in which they had had any luck. She was pleased that two of the first three prizes had been won by Aucklanders.
