 To any individual school college, church or lodge selling tickets we pay 20 per cent on all tickets of 50 or more sold.

 Remember that every one secures 20 per cent on 50 tickets or more sold. The five highest, if selling enough tickets. will secure these five fine pianos. One complimentary ticket for every ten sold, if less than 50 tickets sold. Get in line and win one of these fine pianos.
