KIDD CHEST RICHES ARE YOURS Maybe You'll Get an Auto or a 15-Day Cruise. Keys Coming Soon. Are you ready to leave on a luxurious cruise through the West Indies? Some one of the hundreds of people who are awaiting arrival of Captain Kidd to take charge of The Brooklyn Eagle Treasure Hunt will have an opportunity to make the trip--at no cost to herself or himself, Presents in Captain Kidd's treasure chest, which will be at the Brooklyn Automobile Show at the 23d Regt, Armory, Bedford and Atlantic from Jan. 22 to'29, will be worth $15,000 this year. Captain Kidd will arrive in Brooklyn and start distributing free keys in a few days.

A great many of these keys will fit the lock the magic treasure chest. The persons who are able to unlock the chest will receive presents. One of these will be the trip to the West Indies. It Will Be Some Trip. The key holder who wins the trip, which is donated by the Universal Lehrenkrauss Travel Agency, 359 Fulton will have all expenses paid for the 15-day cruise through Southern waters.

He will travel on one of the finest steamships in the West Indies service. Captain Kidd, that notorious old pirate whose better self will be in Brooklyn soon, would be glad to make the cruise himself, for it was in those same waters in old days that he led his band of sea maraduers from one prize to another.
