Esperanto Prizes for Essay and Speech

At a meeting of the Esperanto Club held yesterday afternoon in the Shepard Room of the Phillips Brooks House, a constitution was adopted and the executive committee's power was extended to deal with the Ostwald Prizes.

Two prizes, each to consist of an Esperanto dictionary and Esperanto literature to the value of $5, will be given for the best essay and speech in Esperanto. Essays must be about 750 words long and may be either a translation or an original composition.

Speeches must occupy a period of five minutes. Those wishing to compete should send their names to a member of the following committee before May 1: Dr. W. H. Morse, A. B. Kuttner '08, and H. R. Shipherd '08.

The competition for the speaking prize will probably be held at a meeting of the club about the middle of May. At this meeting the speaking prize will be awarded and the name of the winning essay will be announced.
