PRIZE COMPETITIONS.

Design for an Embroidered
Cushion Cover.

(A XVII.)

Owing to great pressure upon our space we are
compelled to hold over all competition illustrations
until the next number, in which reproductions of
some of the mosaic designs for the Horniman
Museum will also be found.

The First Prize (Two guineas) is awarded to
Aberbrothock (H. J. Wyse, Viewfield Road, Ar-
broath, N.B.).

The Second Prize (One guinea) to Ba?-?iey (M.
S. Chandler, Station House, Aldershot).

Honourable Mention is given to the following :
Boomerang (Constance Lindley); Bengo (Mary
Bailey); Chris (Christine Gregory); Campanula
(Alice M. Courtenay); Lily (Eleanor V. Tyler);
Merton (Walter Taylor); Violet (Thomas W.
Tupp); and Yew (Ethel Poppleton).

Illustration for “Evangeline.”

(B XIX.)

The drawings received for this competition are
very disappointing. The first prize is awarded to
Jason on account of the excellent technique of
the drawing; but the spirit of the subject is not
well expressed in this or any of the other efforts
sent in.

The First Prize (One guinea) is awarded to
Jason (John Thirtle, The Elms, Banstead Road,
Ewell, Surrey).

The Second Prize (HalJ-a-guinea) to Blue Rose
(Miss Whitehead, Shustoke Vicarage, Coleshill,
Birmingham).

Honourable Mention is given to Grumbler (Rosa
C. Petherick, Maple Lodge, Havelock Road,
Croydon).

Study of an Old Bridge.

(C XVI.)

Although this has proved a popular competition,
very few of the drawings are satisfactory. Many
of them are overcharged with detail, while others
are executed in pale or common ink instead of
Indian ink.

The First Prize (One guinea) is awarded to
Aberbrothock (H. T. Wyse, Viewfield Road, Ar-
broath, N.B.).

The Second Prize (HalJ-a-guinea) to Pan
(Fred. H. Ball, 189 Noel Street, Nottingham).

hall) ; Ztev^(Isabel Whitgreave); and Tim (Frank
Wiles).

Many very excellent photographs have been
sent in for this competition, and considerable diffi-
culty has been experienced in making the awards.

Allerton, Leeds).
