Salisbury, N. c., Oct. 29.-It is
evident that more people are coming
to recognize the healthfulness of pure
ginger ale. However, due to the ex-
cessive cost of most ginger ales, a big
part of the public have been deprived
of this excellent and healthful drink.
The Carolina Beverage Corporation
set about fourteen months ago to per-
feet "a pure quality ginger ale which
could be sold for Sc. After the formu-
la was perfected they wished to ascer-
tain that the public really wanted such
a ginger ale. CARAVAN was put on
the market in a small way. Public de-
mand was almost instantaneous. In
Winston-Salem for instance, CARA
VAN soon took the lead over many
old established ginger ales. Similar suc-
cess has been met with everywhere
CARAVAN has been introduced.
The company, after ascertaining the
public wanted CARAVAN, decided
to introduce it with a $1,000 prize
contest. Uppermost in the minds of
the executives was a contest so simple
that even a child could understand
and enter it. Therefore, the question,
what in your opinion, are the 3
points of superiority in CARAVAN
GINGER ALE" became the theme
of the contest. No work or worry is
required. The entries are simply turn
ed over to some merchant who sells
CARAVAN GINGER ALE.
The judges in the CARAVAN con-
test are V. Paul Rousseau, Executive
Secretary, Charlotte Merchants Asso-
