SPECTATOR COMPETITION No. 120 Set= by C.S.W.

In April Come he will. In May, He sings all day Competitors are invited, for a prize of £5, which may be divided, to compose a similar doggerel, using any five consecutive months, about a well-known figure of life or literature.

Entries must be addressed to the Spectator, 99 Gower Street, London, W.C.I, in" envelopes marked " Competition," and must be received not later than June 11th. Results will be published in the Spectator of June 20th.

By an unfortunate mistake the word schon, towards the end of Mtirike's poem set for translation as Competition No. 119 in last week's Spectator, appeared as schon, thus altering the sense. The line should have read "Ja, die sind schon an jedem Ort." Competitors who have already submitted entries based on the misprinted version will not be penalised.
