Discover how to win even if you've never won anything before!

How many times have you said, "I never win anything?" If you're like most folks it's probably every time you buy a lottery ticket or fill out one of the tear off forms at a PTA meeting!

The time has come to change that to "I win all the time!"

Competition Commando is just what you need to turn contests into your own lucrative hobby or avocation. No matter where you turn you will find opportunities to enter a contest. Doesn't matter if it's tickets to a first run movie or a chance to win a brand spanking new car. Contests can be fun and profitable!

You can discover how to win. New cars, clothes, luxury vacations. . .all are there for the winning and it really has nothing to do with luck. Other people win these things, why not you? The primary differences between "you" and "them" are:

• They enter them more often.
• They enter more contests than you.
• They are more methodical.
• They put more effort into it.
• They are selective.

Are there some "insider tips and tricks" that you can put to work? Yes, of course there are, and Shaw lays them out for you.

Some contests require that you "fill in the blanks in your own words." Shaw teaches you how to prepare the answer just right and boost the odds of winning. And, that's before you even get to using "winning words" that teach you how to tie in

Introduction...

Remember what it was like the first time you picked up a golf club?

The first time you took a swing at a golf ball?

Chances are, if you're like me it was at a driving range. What a fantastic place!

Where else can you go and let our your frustrations, by swinging a club at a ball and driving it 200 yards downrange, and have a ton of fun at the same time?

That's what getting started with golf was like for me. I went to the driving range two to three times a week and spent hours just having fun. I wasn't thinking about what club I was using, what the best approach to the green would be, or trying to see the green to make birdie with one putt.

I was having a blast smashing that little white ball and driving it as far as I could.

Then I got the idea that it would be a great time walking all over golf courses chasing that little white ball and trying to put it into a small cup.

It sure wasn't just taking a whack anymore. Now it was about strategy and scores. Now it was about choosing which number club to use. What approach do I take in reading my next putt?

I love golf, but it was more like operating a business than spending time playing my favorite sport.

Decisions, strategies, trying to think two strokes ahead.... it was work. I wasn't relaxed. I didn't feel refreshed after each round. I even started struggling with my scores. Instead of making par or under most of the time, I

PREFACE
The Chess Problems contained in this volume are the product of
the labour and recreation of some fourteen years. I say "labour,"
because I am not such a Chess enthusiast as to believe that a collection
such as this can be produced without persistent application
partaking of the nature of work; and "recreation," because
the work has been a pleasure-how great a pleasure only a composer
can fully realize. Although a large number of the problems
have been republished in numerous papers at home and abroad,
only the name of the publication in which each originally appeared
is given. Exclusive of the prize list, in about a dozen cases
with a view to an improvement, they have been more or less reset
since their first appearance. The six added to this collection in letterpress
at the end of the Solutions are the last composed.
To the best of my belief there is not a single instance of a dual
continuation, and not being an admirer of dual mates, they are
very few and far between.
A list of prize problems will be found, but it must not be taken
for granted that it contains the essence of the volume.
Solutions are given in full for the benefit of those who are not far
advanced in the Problem Art. As will be seen, red represents the
White, and blue the Black pieces.

A Few Incidents in the Life of Howard Thurston.

HOWARD THURSTON, the Premier Card Manipulator of the World, and known throughout America as "The Man who Mystified Hermann," was born at Columbus, Ohio, on the l0th of July, 1869, and is therefore now in his thirty-first year.

Originally intended by his father-a gentleman of firm Christian principles-for the ministry, he entered the D. L. Moody College, in Northfield, Mass., and completed a course of five years' training. During this period he came to the conclusion that Providence had never intended him to go through life as a parson, and his natural love of Magic always predominated over his liking for the more serious subject he was studying.

Upon graduating with honors from the College, very much against his father's wish he decided to adopt Magic as his profession. (How many other well-meaning enthusiasts have adopted this procedure, and

Dear Friend,

Suppose you should wake up Christmas morning and find yourself to be the owner of a bicycle. It is a brand-new wheel and everything is in perfect working order.

The bearings are well oiled, the nickel is bright and shiny and it is all tuned up and ready for use. If you are a careful, sensible boy you can have fun with it for a long time until finally, like the "One Hoss Shay" in the poem, it wears out and goes to pieces all at once.

On the other hand, if you are careless or indifferent or lazy you may allow the machine to get out of order or to become rusty from disuse, or perhaps when a nut works loose you neglect it and have a breakdown on the road, or you may forget to oil the bearings and in a short time they begin to squeak and wear.

If you are another kind of a boy, you may be careful enough about oiling and cleaning the wheel, but you may also be reckless and head-strong and will jump over
