Jerry's B's For B's Contest
HUNDRED pound Bomber Bond was the Easter gift received by Mrs. M. Grice of 97 Karori Road, Wellington. She won the first prize in Jerry’s " Bonds for Bombers" contest, which was for the cleverest sentence made up from words beginning with the letter "B" and including the words "Bonds for Bombers" or " Bomber Bonds." Theré was no entry fee. In addition to the first prize of £100, there were three consolation prizes of ten pounds and 25 of one pound, all in bonds. The three ten-pound prizes were won by C. V. Sharp, of Mount Albert, Auckland; Miss Edna Herrick, of Auckland; and E. Rankin, of Dunedin. Mrs. Grice’s winning sentence was "Buy Bomber Bonds and bequeath the bairns better birthright."
