ASK LEADING QUESTIONS
Ingenious Contestants Direct Pointed
Queries at Editor.
WHICH WOULD BE CORRECT ONE :
'If Book Miaht ne The Cows CnIves,'
or calves Of the COVE" they
write, (Which shall We
Givef"

Did you ever stop to think that the
four grand prizes--the Apperson touring
car, l0mball eighty-note player-piano,
$500 building lot In A. p. Turkey & Sons
Her addition and a Columbia Grafonola
"ReEent"-did you ever stop TO think
that these are not all?
Has Il ever met your eye that there
are thirty-five more prizes-thirty-fiv
cash consolation awards for those con-
testants who do not get any of the first
four plums?
II you have looked down the list OF
prizes, however you have seen the an
nouncement of the thirty-five cash
awards. There are five of $40 each. ten
OF IS each. and twenty OF 81 each These
prizes make II worth all your time and
energy, even If you do not get one Of
the first four grand awards
The names OF all the winners of prizes
will be printed in The Bee. with the
prizes won by them. Better look over
the prizes announced below the puzzle
picture that appears in the issue Of
today.
Asking Leading Questions.
Many ingenious contestants are d.
recting at the contest editor what must
regretfully be termed leading ques-
tions."
IF a picture" they write, might be
answered as representing the book called
The Cows Calves or the book called
The Calves of the Cow, which would be
correctT'
Now, these contestants evidently want
the contest editor to tell them which of
the books is the proper one to put down
on that coupon. The titles cited above
are fictitious, but the sort Of query is
not. Very many OF these leading ques-
lions" have been asked lately
The only answer that can he given
these contestants is to say that each pic
ture in the contest is drawn to represent
the title of one particular book A title
in the booklovers' catalogue is selected
as one that would lend itself we'll to IL
lustration. Then the illustration is
drawn 10 order by an artist who draws
only what is told him to draw, and does
not know by any means what title he is
representing
Now If some certain picture is con-
strued by some certain contestant to be
capable Of representing more than one
title, It is unfortunate, but not to be
helped. The pictures are drawn to rep
resent one title. If you cannot decide
what title, you may make extra answers.
The rules permit as many as five an
swers to each picture. Extra answers
must be made on extra coupons.
And, incidentally, IT will cost only one
cent to make each of these extra an
swers.
