What- is the Most Popular  

Birthday-Date in Australia  

£2200 SUN-RAYSED £2200  

BIRTHDAY STUNT.  

CASH.  

CASH.  

EVERY PERSON IN AUSTRALIA who eats SUN-RAYSED Fruit and “Normey” Confectionery has an opportunity of winning  

THE FIRST PRIZE £lOOO CASH  

or participating in the distribution of the smaller prizes.  

WHAT* IS THE QUESTION?  

The question is:—WHAT IS THE MOST POPULAR AUSTRALIAN BIRTHDAY DATE?  

CAN ANY ONE PERSON IN AUSTRALIA SEND IN ANY NUMBER OF ENTRIES?  

Yes, frequent entries are requested, BUT as each person has only ONE birth-date, therefore, ONLY ONE ENTRY from  

each counts in solving the above question.  

WHAT ADVANTAGE IS THERE THEN IN PERSON ENTERING FREQUENTLY?  

This, that should his or her date happen to be the most popular, such conclusion to be arrived at by greater number of  

individuals having “recorded their vote” for that particular day than for any other day, the advantage of entering early and  

often would then appear, as naturally the person having the greatest number of entries under the most popular date  

will be declared the winner.  

WHAT CHANCE OF WINNING THE FIRST PRIZE OF £lOOO HAS PERSON ENTERING, SAY, TWICE AGAINST  

ANOTHER ENTERING THOUSAND TIMES?  

THE SAME CHANCE EXACTLY, for unless the person with the greater number of entries is fortunate enough to have been  

born on the most popular day (in the decision of which HIS 1000 ENTRIES WOULD COUNT BUT ONE) he could have  

• bought up the WHOLE “SUN-RAYSED” PAQK without participating in any prize-money whatever,  

THEREFORE,  

girlie aged six by investing “the contents of her money-box” is just as likely to win as bachelor of ninety-six, who invests  

lifetime’s savings.  

CONDITIONS.—Attach to Entry Grocer’s genuine docket at retail rates for 31b. SUN-RAYSED FRUITS (lib. each of Currants, Sultanas  

and Lexias) or for three 1/- Cartons of the “GOOD LITTLE NORMEY” Confectionery (crystallised or chocolate covered).  

If “Normeys” bought from Confectioner, who gives NO DOCKET, then attach sections of three empty cartons instead of docket  

(that side of the carton on which is printed the reference to the Recipe Book).  

Dockets must state “SUN-RAYSED” FRUITS or “NORMEY” Confectionery; otherwise entry will be disqualified.  

Competitors may send in as many entries as they please, each entry to have docket attached. The entry to be in the form above, and may  

be written, printed or typed.  

NOTE.—If any difficulty in getting supplies, post us 3s. (by Postal Note or Money Order), and we will send you value in Sun-Raysed  

side-lines, together with necessary docket. If sending postage stamps send 3s. 3d.  

Contest finally closes 30th September (postmark on envelope), but you should send in every month—to win the monthly prizes of £lOO  

per month.
