HOW TO GET ONE FREE
Any boy or girl who sends or brings us a new
subscriber to the Willmar Tribune will get one of these
aeroplanes. Trial subscriptions of three months for
25 cents will count for one. More blades will be given
with the full yearly subscriptions however, than for
the short term.
If you want to be the first one in your set to get
an aeroplane, get busy. Find out who doesn't keep the
Willmar Tribune, and ask them to subscribe so that you
can get an aeroplane. They'll do it: Don't give up.
This is the only way you can get an aeroplane. They
are not for sale anywhere. The Tribune has the rights
in this part of the country.
