The entries were more numerous than ever, and the judge's; task,1 although a pleasant one, was veiy difficult, as the writing was of a very high standard. The following letter has been received from the head teacher of an outlying country school, which had not previously entered for the competition:l—. r , "To the Organiser, Writing Competition,—Herewith are the entries in your competition of the above school. Every child has entered enthusiastically. This competition has given a great fillip to my efforts to produce good writing in my hchool. I have enclosed for comparison samples of the writing taken about seven months ago, and you will see that there is a striking improvement. This has been brought about largely by encouragement. It is with this end in view that I have taken the liberty of asking you to drop me a line commending the writer you deem the best (for I realise the remoteness of this tiny school gaining a prize). The very fact of your taking, note of us at all will achieve more in five minutes than solid teaching might do in five weeks." • ST. ANNE'S REBUILDING CARNIVAL. WANTED TO RENT.
