The pieces, when placed together correctly, form a view of an aeroplane. The original drawing, after the divisions had been marked and numbered, was photographed and is in the possession of the Editor, so that any doubt as to the correct placing of the pieces can be immediately decided. All solutions to this puzzle should be marked " Prize Puzzle " outside on the envelope, and inside should contain the sender s name and address and the date of posting. The prize will be allotted to the first correct solution received at the office of " FLIGHT." If more than one correct solution is received on the same day, the pnze will be divided equally between the solvers of the puzzle. If no correct solutions are received, the pnze will be—at the discretion of the Editor—allotted to the sender of the solution he considers is nearest to the original, or divided amongst two or more which he may consider of equal merit. No solution considered after January ist, 1917. Any one person may send in as many solutions as he pleases. There is no appeal from the ^decision of the Editor. The names and addresses of the winners will be published in " FLIGHT." RutMess Rnymes and Limericks. CUTHBERT, on his Multiplane, Side-slipped from this world of pain.
