Eddie, who is badly in need of S200 for a proposed New York trip, decides to enter an essay contest, which offers S200 as first prize. In order to gain ideas, he studies the work of a famous English author. His Uncle George, a lack- adaisical person, sees the well-known essay, and thinks it was written by Eddie. He sends it in to the contest without Eddie's knowledge. Eddie also enters his own essay under an assumed name, because he thinks that Mrs. Granville, a judge, is prejudiced against him. Everyone is overjoyed when it is announced that Eddie has Won first prize in the contest. All is well until it is discovered that the prize winning essay was really written by the English author. Eddie is accused of cheating, much to everyone's discomfiture. The troubles are finally unravelled when Uncle George, who has been away, returns and says that it was he who mistakenly sent in the disputed essay. When the judges announce that Eddie's own es- say has been awarded first place, all is peace and happiness once more. Page Twenty-five
