WORKS OP ART!
9 FRIVOLOUS RAFFLE PROJECTS. "To give some idea how the public is being demoralised by the raffling craze," remarked the Minister of Internal Affairs laughingly last niglit. "I may say that within the last couple of days I received an. application for permission to raffle a sucking pig. I had to raise the point whether it was a work of arF, when it was suggested to me that, cooked and decorated, it would certainly fall within that category. Another instance was that in which a hootmaker asked permission to raffle a pair of boots for patriotic purposes,' tho tickets to cost olio penny each. Needless to say, both requests were declined, politely but firmly."■
