contestants for a gold medal a prize on
test was held in tile evening in which
four young ladies took part. The prize
was Won by Miss Bertha Derrick with
Miss Nellie Swan, OF Amdover, second.
Two OF the Judges in marking gave Miss
Swan a percentage, but the third Judge
evidently over estimated the delivery of
the winner, as her marking more than
cOunterbalanced the first two, thus the
minority won in this ease.
