Twenty words or less!--and you get $500. That means $25 or more a word. Even the most' famous authors can't command" that price! But someone in Canada is going to get it! i A Title Writing Contest is now an- nounced in the newspapers. The first prize is $500, the second prize $200 and the third $100. In addi- tion, there are eight consolation prizes of 25 each. A picture is ran in Congoleum advertisifig without a title and the best titles submitted win the money. The picture' tells an interesting story. One can imagine dozens of things that one of the three persons might be saying. There is the young man who hag evidently come to call. His raincoat and umbrella are drip- ping water all over the hall rug. In fact, the older woman in the picture is holding his umbrella without seeming to care where the water runs. The young lady of the house {s descending the stairway. Which one of the people is doing the talking? What ds being said? Or can you think up a phrase or sent- ence that sums up the situation? It fs clear as can be that the rug on the floor is waterproof. That gives one lead for a title. All you have to do to enter this contest with its thousand dollars for prizes is to get an entry blank at the nearest Congoleum dealer's. It might be well to have a short talk with him about the features of this kind of floor-covering so that you will have your selling points in line. Titles must be submitted between the dates of October 20th and No- vember 3rd. Wide-awake dealers in Congoleum are taking advantage of the interest this title writing contest is sure to arouse and are having special sales during the weeks of October 20th and November 1st." The title may be written in French or English, in slogan form, as dias logue, or a few words of description. But it must not be longer * than twenty words. It may be as much shorter as you can make it.
