not. That his words were appreciated
was made quite evident to Mr.. x

WOMAN TO PAINT SIGN
100 FEET FROM GROUND.

DETROIT November eff the
leading partisan in a most unique
wager follows out the requirements
she must meet to win the bet Detroit
ers will be treated to the uncommon
sign of a local young woman artist,
Miss Flossie Sands, painting a huge
billboard on the top of the Kanter
building, on the Campus. The other
party to the wager is a well known
business man.
The terms state that in case Miss
Sands fails to paint the sign she will
forfeit 800, and the same amount will
go to her if she succeeds. The terms
also require that she work on the sign
six days, and no less than six hours
each day.
Miss Sands was recently visiting
at the home of this business man when
he marked that he did not think a wo-
man could paint sign elevated more
than short distance from the ground.
Miss Sands at once declared she would
accomplish the feat if given the OPP
portunity.
