£1000 FOR FIVE SHILLINGS
. It is not very often that the 1 chance is oflere.l tjo 'anyone, of winning £1000 for five .shillings. '.When we were all little,boys;ahd girls.we were taught tho lesson of the boy who founded his fortune by picking up a pin in an office. Tlie action secured'the boy a job, the job turned out a good one, as did also the.lad, who rose in the fullness of time to be.a partner... Tho story may be true, for the reason that every fortune must be founded on some definite action taken at one: time ; or other —tho "tide which taken at the flood _ leads on to fortune." Here, the .Wellington Tramway boys, anxious to do all they 'can to raiso money for the men at the front who have the misfort\ine to strike trouble, are, offering one of those raro chances of founding a fortune, independent of any pins that may be lying round. They offer 1000 golden sovereigns for ss. to someone. It may be the reador. At any rate each investor of os. has an equal chance.- . Tickets may- be obtained from the secretary, Mr. C. A. Ballard, Central Office, Featherston Street, Wellington; tho Bristol Piano Company, Lainbton Quay; Mrs. Beveridge, Riddiford Street, Newtown; and from all tramway men and tobacconists. It should be borne in mind that whilst you may be trying to do the best thing foor yourself, you are also doing something for the boys at tho front, who are doing so much for us all.
