A GREAT DAY.

Friday, November 28th

The Commercial Travellers and Warehousemen of Auckland were so busy during the war and after raising £80,000 for patriotic purposes, they had no time to think of themselves, their old age, mortuary benefits, or anything else. They went in heart and soul to the patriotic business, and, as everybody knows who remembers those Packets Days, they stirred the town up. They did a great deal for the people, and the people may now do a little for them.

Surprise Packet Day is Friday, November 28th, and anybody who hasn't got a bunch of shilling tickets should get them now. The.draw will be a fair thing—the citizens on the committee are people of the highest integrity, including the Prime Minister and the Hon. A. M. Myers. The ticket buyer MUST get a return for every shilling spent. He may get a small return or a very large one— sixpennyworth or a piano, a shillingworth or a section of land, eighteen penny worth or an Elgin watch, half a crown's worth or a suite of furniture, a talking machine, or a mob of sheep, a sewing machine or war bonds, a fat bullock or a course in wireless telegraphy. Help the Travellers—they helped yon!
