The scheme is the brain child
of the B. G. & M. Amusement

devicea and machines.
For 10 cents the B.G.M. Co.
gets a lot of advertising and
the Kodiak Baptist Mission or
Griffin Memorial Hospital re
ceives a cash donation. Kodiak
motorists and drivers are pay
ing the bill’
Members of the BGM Co.
have had envelopes printed
which read “We have just de*
posited 10 cents in your park
ing meter in the hope of sav
ingyou from a $3.00 par King
violation ticket. Why not put
$1.00 in this envelope and
mail it to either the Baptist
Mission or Griffin Memorial
Hospital? (signed) BGM1
Amusement Co.”
To date several envelopes
have been received by both
organizations. One grateful
motorist placed $7.00 in his
envelope.
Mr. and Mrs. Justin J. Hol
man have sold property over
