STUDENT SELF-WINDING WATCH Perpetual Self-Winding Watch Company Offers Watch As Prize A self-winding wrist watch-a "per petual motion" watch that winds it self, somewhat on the principle of the pedometer, is to be given free to a student of Carolina next month, ac cording to an announcement by the Perpetual Self-Winding Watch Co., New York City, manufacturers of this startling new invention. The watch is described as "the first practical solution of the perpetual mo tion problem" by the inventor. Tests have proved that it is an accurate, dependable timepiece-possibly even more accurate than the ordinary stem winder. Now that it has been per fected, it is expected to replace the ordinary stem-winding watch, just as the stem-winder replaced the old fashioned key-winding watch years ago. All students at Carolina are invited to compete in the contest to obtain the free watch. Each is requested to write an advertising headline, in ten words or less, suitable for an adver tisement featuring the self-winding watch. Prominent New York adver tising agency executives will judge the headlines submitted. The student from this school who submits the best headline will receive the self-winding watch (valued at $55) free. All head lines must be mailed to the Perpetual Self-Winding Watch Co., 10 W. 47th St., New York City, on or before June 25, 1929. Further information about the Perpetual Self-Winding Watch may be obtained at local jewelers, or at the offices of this publication. ----.s.c. GLEE CLUB PLAYS AT ST.
