Owing to the improper character of many of the prize contests which have
recently been offered by many papers and to the criticisms which have
been called forth by them, we have decided that it is best to withdraw
the contest begun in No. 55. We know that these contests are of great
interest to our readers, and hope that we shall be able to renew them in
the near future without subjecting ourselves to the risk of criticism
which so properly attaches to any of the prize contests being published.
