THE COMPETITION
THE EDITOR OFFERS TWO PRIZES OF £10 EACH, THE FIRST. FOR AN INSCRIPTION FOR A SUNDIAL IN PROSE OR VERSE, THE SECOND FOR AN EPIGRAM . ON WOMAN IN FOUR LINES OF VERSE.
NONE of our competitions has been left open long enough for our readers in the remoter parts of the Empire to send in their entries ; and yet we have continual proof that the Spectator is read in such places with especial interest. We have therefore decided to set a closing date for this competition late enough for the farthest-removed of our regular readers. Of course we shall receive entries at any time before the closing date, and we do not wish to discourage readers nearer home from competing. We think, indeed, that the long interval will refresh our regular competitors, and that after a strenuous six months of competitions they will be happy to' take things more at their ease. A coupon will be published every week.
