The third prize of $5 was awarded Russell Johnson of Evanston. His slogan is "Give him a vacation, too," and his presentation is that of a newsboy wist- fully watching the departing vacation- ists in a railway station.

The 35 posters entered in the contest will be exhibited in Evanston and the North Shore towns appealing for aid for Arden Shore.
