The President’s Trophy. 
Presented by 
Sir HENRY A. BLAKE, G.C.M.G. 
Open to ALL COUNTRIES. 
The PRESIDENT has kindly intimated that he will present a 
Trophy for the exhibit proving the greatest interest in connection 
with the production, preparation, or use of Rubber in any form. 
DETAILS. 
The Award, to be made by competent Judges, may be given as 
follows : — 
1. To the Manufacturer showing the greatest variety of articles 
made from Rubber, or it may be for one article only. 
2 . Or it may go to a Manufacturer of Machinery, or for some 
labour-saving device that would benefit Manufacturers or 
Planters. 
3 . Or for some simple invention of great value to all connected 
with the Rubber Industry. 
4 . Or to the Exhibitor of some article which demonstrates how 
largely Rubber may be used for general and commercial use 
in a way hitherto unknown. 
The Award will be called “ The PRESIDENT’S TROPHY.” There 
will be no entrance fee, and no entry will be required as the Judges will 
visit the various Exhibits in the building and make their award from 
them. 
The Judges will inspect and test all Exhibits they may think worthy, 
and make their award according to their own judgment, no matter from 
what country the Exhibit may come. 
Therefore a Manufacturer, Chemist, Planter, Inventor, Maker of 
Machinery, etc., has equal prospects of carrying off the Trophy.
