"COMMOHSENSE CROSSWORD" Vo. tHU
What Commonsense Crosswords offer you might well be shouted from the house-tops, but that is scarcely necessary if for no other reason than that huge prizes have been won by our competitors in virtually every corner of India, Burma and Ceylon. The trifling fee in this competition is Re. 1 for two entries, so that you can win a prize of Rs. 8,400 with an entry costing you only As. 8. If your solution is All Correct you will receive an elegant wrist watch as well. But even if others do better, you may well share in the further Rs. 5,000 that is set aside for Runners-up. And that is not all, because there are also Extra Prizes that must be won by even those with four errors. You cannot make a better start than by starting now on the Practice Square below, because you will have more time to think.
