Over 250,000 people from every section of the country took time to study the six outstanding fea- tures of Bonp Flashlights and Batteries and to send us their slogan suggestions. ‘While thousands selected the Candle-light feature as the most important one on which to submit slo-_ gans, other contestants chose the Shock-absorbers, the Safety Seal, Fibre Case or the 3-way Safety Switch. However, by far the greatest number of slo- gans were written about the remarkable “Recuper- ation” feature of BOND Batteries. At the left are the names of the three major prize ‘winners with their successful slogans. Below these are listed the wimmers of the ten $100 awards. Difficult to pick the 1183 winners! Selecting the winners from a vast avalanche of entries has been a long and difficalt :‘L A large staff was kept busy for more than three months classifying the slogans. The task of jndging, alone, took over four weeks! There were literally thousands of good slogans. Some of the best, however, had to be discarded because they were too general—because they did not apply directly to any one particylar feature of Bonn Flashlights or Mono-Cells, as the rules specified.
