EVERYTHING. Well here - is a A chance that ought to net you one of the handsomest prizes that ever gladdened the heart of youth. Attention, now. 'This is the SEVENTH SET in the THIRD SERIES of the SUNDAY CALL'S great puzzle contests, and each of the ten pictures on this page represents the name of a color. What color? Ah, that is for you to find out. Let us kelp you a little. Begin with picture No. 5. That is a very flerce dvel, isn’t it? But though one man has wounded the other the cut does not seem to be so very severe. In fact, it is only a mere scratch. Now, what do they say of such a wound in the language of the duel code? If a French reporter were describing the affray he would be likely to write, “Monsieur So-and-So pinked his antagonist in the right forearm.” There you have the name of the color—PINK. ; Too easy, eh? Well, let's try something harder. How will No. 9 suit you? What have those three men to do with colors? Nothing, eh? Of course not. The answer is in the body of water in the background. What is the other name for red? CRIMSON, to be sure, and as many claim- that the Red Sea is only a lake, there you have the name of the color—CRIMSON—LAKE. - Picture No. 2 is CHINESE-WHITE. There, now, with those three examples see if you can guess the rest. 3 REMEMBER—You may ' send in as many answers in your name as you wish, provided only that you have a coupon to accompany each answer, and—REMEMBER—there is no age limit and young and old may compete. ?

Perhaps it is because the children in the coun- try have an equal chance 'wi th the children in the city. At any rate, the answers come piling idl every week—stack upon stack of let- ters—until the Puzzle Editor is almost lswamped with the big mass of letters. However, the more the merrier, so send them right along. And now listen a moment: Why is it that so many of you stum- bled over the popular sports puzzles last week? They Were easy enough, weren’t they? Take picture No. 3, for instance, The solution was actually written out for you, and yet ever so many of you ealled it by any name but the right one. If you remember, it was a plcture of the schoolteacher asking a small boy how much “ four and ten is.” Could you desire anything more plain than that? “Ten 1s.” Spell it properly, and what is the name of the game? “Tennis.” Perhaps it was because it was so easy that you must have suspected that there was some other hidden solution which you could not see at first glance. But, you see, such was not the case. Then there was picture No. 8 which represented a singer render- ing “Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep.” Now what sort of singers always sing that song—are they sopranos, tenors, contraltos, or what? Bass singers, of course. And what would we say of any one who should sing as badly as the man in the picture seemed to be doing? We'd say that he was bawling, wouldn’t we ell, is it so very hard to find the answer to picture No. 8 then? It is BASEBALL, to be sure. However, you can all console yourself with the thought of what great success you may win this week if you will only get to work early and think a little bit. Those prizes are surely worth a little time and patience. What colors are represented in the pictures on this page? Ah, there is your chance for a valuable prize. Don’t miss it. .
