Everyone wishing to enter this colossal contest must submit a photograph of himself or herself or

(3) fresh plumbers, or (4) leaky bathtubs.
Send your photos to Mr. Fish, care of the Aquarium, Abilene, Texas.
Each photo will be given a screen test. That is, it will be hung in an open window, and if
the flies gather on it you have no future as a motion picture star, or vice versa.
The Bronco has posted a $100000000000 bond with the Any National Bank and guarantees
that the winner WILL NOT HAVE TO GO TO HOLLYWOOD OR HOWARD PAYNE.How do we do it?
