Here It Is!
Monster Railway Competition.
Over 1000 Prizes.
Value Amounting to £100.

First Prize Awards in both Senior and Junior Sections.—First Class return railway ticket to anywhere in New Zealand during the summer holidays. This also includes a free ticket for a parent or guardian accompanying each prizewinner.

As the children of the Railway employees already have the privilege of free tickets annually, should the two first prize winners come under this category, arrangements will be made for another kind of prize, particulars of which will be announced later.

To each of the 1000 next best entrants (500 in the Senior Section and 500 in the Junior Section) we will send one of the two books “The Romance of The Rail,” by James Cowan, one of New Zealand's finest writers. These books are beautifully illustrated and have many detailed maps. Book No. 1 deals with the North Island Main Trunk, and Book No. 2 with the South Island Main Trunk. On your entry form state which page 14 book you prefer should you be one of the lucky winners. If no preference is made, the book will be sent which deals with the Island in which the entrant lives. There will be other competitions at later dates, so you will have an opportunity of winning both these handsome books.
