WAR a SEAL " a a MODEL a COMPETITION ON Thursday afternoon last the " Knights of the Air," Capt. Sir John Alcock, and Lieut. Sir Arthur Whitten Brown, visited the exhibition of War Models which has been organised by Messrs. Thomas Parsons and Sons at their showrooms, 315-317, Oxford Street, London, in aid of the War Seal Foundation. Nearly a quarter of a million people have visited this exhibition, and up to the end of June last over ^11,000 has been collected and handed over to the War Seal Foundation. This latter, as no doubt some of our readers know, is an institution for providing comfortable residential flats for totally disabled Service men and their families, founded by Sir Oswald Stoll. Already 72 residential flats, together with buildings and equipment for giving massage, electrical treat ment, etc., have been erected at Fulham, but there is still plenty to be done, so those of our readers who are interested may care to obtain further particulars from the Secretary at 10, Charing Cross Road, W.C. 2. The primary object of the above visit was to present the prizes won in the model-making competition inaugurated by the above firm. There were two sections in this com petition, a senior and a junior, Sir John Alcock presenting the prizes in the former, and Sir Arthur Whitten Brown the latter. The prizes were as follows :— Senior Section 1st.—Model—H.M.S. Princess Royal. Mr. L. F. Rudd, ^60. 2nd.—Horizontal engine. Mr. IT. C. Duffield, ^30. 3rd.—Renault air-cooled engine. Mr. F.
