Competition Ship Reaches Port

And Discharges Her Cargo

Amid a spurt of white foam at her bow and the noisy greetings of fuwy little tugs—the competition ship steered safely into port. It has been all too short—this journeying to other lands—but her passengers are glad to be home again. Besides, there's a cargo af prizes to be unloaded from her hold. Who are the lucky winners? The captain was quite a long time deciding upon this important question, because there were so many splendid entries.
