The Great Round World and What Is Going On In It, Vol. 1, No. 33, June 24, 1897 eBook

This eBook from the Gutenberg Project consists of approximately 29 pages of information about The Great Round World and What Is Going On In It, Vol. 1, No. 33, June 24, 1897.

Prizes will be awarded to those who make the best selection and who mention the events in the best order of their importance.  Answers may be sent in any time before September 1st.

THE GREAT ROUND WORLD does not want you to hurry over this contest, but to take plenty of time and do the work carefully.  It will be a pleasant occupation for the summer months.

We would advise you to take the magazines starting at No. 1, look them over carefully, keep a note-book at your side, and jot down in it the events that seem to you important; when you have finished them all, No. 1 to 30, look over your notes and select the ten events that seem to you to be the most important, stating after each event your reason for thinking it important.

For instance:  suppose you decide that the death of Dr. Ruiz was one of these important events, you might say, “The killing of Dr. Ruiz in the prison of Guanabacoa—­because it brought the cruelties practised on American citizens to the attention of our Government,” etc., etc.

In sending your answers put your number and the date only on them, for the judges are not to know names and addresses of the contestants, that there may be no favoritism shown.

It is important to put date on, for if two or more are found of similiar standing, the one first received will be given preference.

Address all letters to REVIEW PRIZE CONTEST DEPARTMENT, GREAT ROUND WORLD, 3 and 5 West 18th Street, New York City.
