The science of war like other st‘iotlccs. is amply treated in the Encyclopedia

numerous requests from school children, who claim they were not given an oppor-

these valuable prizes which The Evrcsmo Srzxrrsrzr. will award to some one. For
the benefit of all such we add below a blank slip which if filled out correctly and
mailed to the Editor of the Recording Department, Evesmo Sl-JNTINEL, by ii p. 111.,
Monday, August 12, and if the applicant is found to be a member of any school in

will then be duly entered upon the list of competitors. However, for the benefit
of those who may not have preserved the black faced type word, they can get the
