The Competition

THE Editor offers a prize of £5 for the best suggestions; written on the back of a postcard, as to what to do "if I had 150,000 to give away." The Rev. R. V. H. Burne, who has suggested this Competition, writes :— "One has often been struck by the curious use that millionaires make of their surplus money, and has thought that one could have made better use of it., given the opportunity. But on thinking it out, one begins to see how very difficult it is to give away money on a large scale without doing harm to the recipients. Your millionaire readers might, perhaps, welcome the hints that the

Competition would afford ! " .

The Editor agrees that this is a Competition whose results might possibly be of real service to the world. Entries must be marked "Competition," and reach this offiee by first post on Monday, June 25th.
