"MISS or MR. SPRING do you know of anything you need that is not on display tonight?"
This is the question that will win the $5.00 prize for you if you are the first to ask it of the mysterious stranger tomorrow night.
Open House of Lawrence Merchants Tomorrow Night Friday, March 9th----7 to 9 o'clock
Four $5.00 prizes Stores will be open
Merchandise on display Nothing will be sold
F. A. U. Band will play Everything Free
Here are the Details:
Four "mysterious strangers," two men and two women will be among the crowds in the stores Friday night. The first person who asks each "stranger" the question "Miss (or Mr.) Spring, do you know of anything you need that is not on display tonight?" will be given a prize of $5.00
There are only three conditions, first, the question must be asked in exactly the form given above, second, the "mysterious stranger" must be inside some store when asked the question, and third, no employee of any co-operating store is eligible to receive any of the prizes. The "mysterious strangers" will be chosen by the chairman of a special committee and will be known only to him.
AUTOMOBILE SHOW A FEATURE
New models of automobiles will be on display in dealers' show rooms, including those located on side streets as well as those on Massachusetts street.
Most Stores to Cooperate
Announcement was made Monday by the committee in charge that 90% of the stores on Massachusetts street will co-operate by keeping their stores open from 7 to 9 o'clock Friday evening. Many of them will have special exhibits inside the stores, and windows will be dressed specially for the event.
The stores are to be open solely for the purpose of making a display for the visitors. No merchandise is to be sold except in those establishments that would be open for business regularly for that night. It is to be a "get-acquainted night" when students, faculty and townpeople may visit stores for the sole purpose of viewing the spring showings, visiting certain establishments which are not regularly on display, and at the same time meet with Lawrence salespeople.
The stores that are keeping open and are particularly interested in having students visit them are indicating that fact in their announcements in other columns of tonight's Kansan.
