Fixed?
Incognito as "Monsieur Adolphe," His Majesty King Gustaf V arrived for his usual winter sojourn on the French Riviera last week, made for a charity gala at the Casino in Cannes. Strolling in late, Monsieur Adolph learned that 25 tickets for the charity raffle remained unsold, bought ail of them. Few hours later he learned he had won a building lot at a new Riviera resort now striving mightily to push itself. Lotteries, beauty contests, automobile raffles and all such on the Riviera are very often "fixed." Even smarter is the usual way of naming prizes. The prettiest girl or swankiest car gets the "Prize of Honor," No. 2 the "Grand Prize" and No. 3 the "First Prize"--thus making at least three people proud and happy.
