A Bigger Attendance Than Ever Last Saturday.  People were present from outlying villages as far as eighteen miles away at last Saturday's Sugar Draw -- proving beyond all doubt its growing popularity.
Will you be there this Saturday night?  Just a few minutes of your time at 11 p.m. daylight saving time may mean a bag of sugar for you - surely it's worth it.  You get your coupon with every 25 cent purchase.  Sign your name to these, deposit them in a convenient box, and then come to the sugar draw and see how lucky you are.  Shop early and don't wait a week to know how lucky you are.
THIRTY-TWO PEOPLE GET SUGAR EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT -- Yes, sir!  32 lucky people carry home sugar, which is drawn for as follows:  10 bags of 10 lbs. each; two bags of 20 lbs.; 10 bags of 10 lbs.,three bags of 20 lbs., five bags of 20 lbs., one bag of 50 lbs. and for the 32nd draw, the big prize of 100 lbs. of granulated sugar.

REMEMBER the stores listed here are sugar stores -- Ask for your coupon with every 25 cent purchase and bear in mind always, the more coupons you have in the draw the better your chance of winning.
