A COMPETITION
For Girls and Boys of 16 Years and Under Prizes for Crosswords There will be two prizes each week for correct answers to the crossword puzzle on page 3. One prize will be for the first correct answer opened next Tuesday morning (this gives distant readers time to enter), and the other prize will be for the neatest correct answer received. All envelopes should be marked “crossword” so that they will be kept till Tuesday, when they will be put in a box, from which they will be drawn. Every correct entry has a chance of winning the prize. This seems a fair way of arranging the competition for readers who live close at hand and those who live far away. The first prize will be either a pocket knife or a set of embroidery threads or paint brushes, and the neatest prize a patent pencil. Write your solutions in columns on separate paper; do not send the puzzle itself. And write your choice of a prize with your name and address on the answer paper.
