We reserve to ourselves the right ! of continuing the sale of shares over ad- i vertised number, if necessity demands it, j and thereby adding to the value of all : Prizes. In this instance we shall sell j until TH URSDAY, 22 o MAY, whatever j the number applied for may be, experi- i ence teaching us that "supplementaries" I and No. 2's are uot appreciated. We desire to thank the Subscribers who attended our "seance" on Autumn Meeting, and as a Committee transacted the business for us. We notice with pleasure that Sub- j scribers are awakening to the fact that • the actual drawing in all its details is , their work, and not the Promoters, aud ! hope that for the fut -re the attendances will begrevtek than ever. We are sick and tired of reading portions of Consultation Advertisements saying " Press Representatives " invited, or " were present." Suppose they were ? Does that makefa drawing better, fairer, straighter, or more legitimate ? Emphatically NO ! We believe in subscribers ad infinitum being present and doing their work for the benefit of Shareholders. I** is far more satisfactory than a Repre- \ sentative of the Press being present to ; take notes of a meeting, and then no J publicity given to their report ; although j we must admit we cannot do without ; them or their governing bodies in any j venture. | In writing for tickets it would be better : for many reasons to use Two Envelopes. | Applications, if by Letter, with Two Twopenny Stamps, .and exchange on Cheques Is added.
