The adjudicators make the following remarks re this competition:“ln selecting this subject we have endeavoured to set your student readers the task of designing, in cheap, durable, and readily obtainable materials, such as would be employed by any City Authority, a very common desideratum for the convenience of the citizen, in such a way that it may be an ornament and not a disfigurement to its surroundings. We venture to think that our City Authorities might pay more attention to the artistic side of their erections and trust that the outcome of this competition may excite the interest of some of your numerous readers in the subject and show them what might be done towards the improvement of their Cities in this direction.
