'''The Adjudicators — [[Louisa Hawkins|Lady Conan-Doyle]] and Mrs. Thomas Hardy.'''

'''The Judges.''' — THE TATLER prize competition which started in our issue of last week has had the good fortune to secure the kind services of [[Louisa Hawkins|Lady Conan-Doyle]] and Mrs. Thomas Hardy to decide who are the three prettiest children in England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales. [[Louisa Hawkins|Lady Conan-Doyle]] and her husband, the clever inventor of detective stories and the author of many good books, live at Hindhead in a beautiful house on the Surrey hills. Mrs. Thomas Hardy and her husband, the famous author of so many brilliant novels on Wessex life, reside at Dorchester in the very heart of that country which Mr. Hardy has so well described.

'''Read the Rules.''' — Notwithstanding that in the rules of our Pretty Children Competition it was made perfectly plain that photographs should not be sent earlier than August 10 half-a-dozen readers have already sent to me portraits which they evidently intended as their contribution to this com- petition. Intending competitors will save themselves and myself a great deal of trouble if they will carefully read over all the rules and regulations of the competition before they enter for it. I may point out that those who happened to miss last week's TATLER can still enter for the competition as back numbers can always be obtained either direct from the publisher, Great New Street, E.C., or from any newsagent or railway bookstall.

'''LADY CONAN-DOYLE'''<br />
The wife of [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle|Sir Arthur Conan-Doyle]], the creator of "[[Sherlock Holmes]]".

'''MRS. THOMAS HARDY'''<br />
The wife of Mr. Thomas Hardy, the author of "Far from the Madding Crowd "
