A SPLENDID COMPETITION.

WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.

TO-DAY appa&rs the third of the eeries of five blocks of animals 1 heads. * Next Saturday the fourth set of bodies will appear. Publication will follow—bodies on Saturdays, heads on Wednesdays—until the full number of one hundred has appeared. What you have to do is decide which axe the correct heads fer the various bodies. Bear in mind that YOU DO NOT HAVE TO NAME THEM. You saw that the lion’s head (No. 7) belonged to the lion’s body (No. 10), and you will be sure to find some others. Then perhaps mother and father might give you just a little help when you are in difficulties. Next week, when more heads and bodies appear, you will be able to find others, and if you cut the pictures out of the paper and keep them until the last appears, by then you will be able to find a head for every body. Follow the specimen given in the paper, and make out your list. The closing date of the competition will be announced later. If there is anything: you do not understand, write to “ EVANGELINE,’ and your question will be answered in the “ INQUIRY ” column as soon as possible. It must be remembered that the heads do not exactly fit the bodies, but can be pieced together by general appearances. Another point to remember is that the corresponding heads for the bodies in this week are not to be found in the block of heads appearing next week. For every head and body correctly joined ten marks will be given, and for every one wrong five marks will be deducted. The first set of bodies appeared in the “ Star ” of Saturday, November 6, and the fourth set will appear next Saturday. RULES GOVERNING THE COMPETITION. 1.
