Our programme on Queen's Birthday filled about 50 per cent over the original issue, 2,893 instead of 2,000. Each Ticket has Six Chances, and is drawn on the principle that if a Programme does not fill, prizes are paid pro rata. We reserve to ourselves the right of continuing the sale of shares over advertised number, if necessity demands it, and thereby adding to the value of all Prizes. In this instance we shall sell until Monday, 14th July, whatever the number applied for may be, experience teaching us that "supplementaries" and No. 2's .are not appreciated. 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.
