OF THE MISSION BUILDING 
All pictures were to be entered 
under a nom de plume , together 
with a sealed blank envelope 
which should contain the name 
and address of the several 
authors. Awards in the com¬ 
petition have just been made, 
and we have been permitted 
by the courtesy of Mr. Birge 
and Mr. Lamb to reproduce 
some of the more interesting 
of the successful photographs. 
Irregular focusing, which gave 
a softness to the views, and a 
method of printing from the 
negatives to obtain an artistic 
texture counted in the choice 
made for the first prize. Nor 
was the taste shown in the 
attractive mounting of the 
prints without its weight. The 
set of pictures bearing the nom 
deplume “Yampah” was given 
first place, and received the 
prize of twenty-five dollars. 
Those bearing a pen sketch 
of a mission belfry were 
ranked second, and the set 
marked “Norwood” was 
placed third. These received 
prizes of fifteen and ten dol¬ 
lars respectively.
