The uselessness of the prize contest
IS a test of literary excellence has
been demonstrated afresh by the pub
LEGATION in Golfers Weekly of Mrs.
Edith Wharton's story, 1.-THE Best
Man" This was the story which Sen
ator. Lodge approved as most worthy
of the first prize; but he was over
ruled by the other judges, and this
distinction went to a tale with little
to commend it in comparison. In fact
none of the three prize stories, al
though Mrs. Deland was the writer of
one. deserves to be mentioned in the
same breath with 1.-THE Best Man
The moral-if moral there is-seems
to be that writer's Of repute should
keep out OF competition in which, by
the vagaries of the judges, the merest
amateur may win.
