VOCATION POSTER COMPETITION As a variant to essays competitions conducted previously in Catholic Schools, the Vocations Committee offers to schools a Poster Competition. The subject of the competition is the need for Vocations to the Priesthood and the Religious Life. It is thought that such a competition would stimulate the children's thoughts on this subject. Suggested arrangements are as follows: 1. Each school is invited to run a poster competition within the school; small prizes could be given for the best entries in different grades or groups of grades. 2. Priests in different parishes are asked to assist in the school competition in any way possible. 3. Each school is asked to forward the two best entries in the school to the Secretary, Vocations Committee, c/o Church Offite, Victoria Square. Perth. Such entries to be at the Church Office

by June 15, 1960. These posters are to form the entries for a Diocesan Poster Competition, for which there are to be four prizes: for the two best primary and the two best secondary posters. 5. Ideas contained in the posters may be used for public posters prepared for Vocation Weeks in

4.

1960 and subsequent years. The Committee would be very grateful if teachers would co-operate to make this competition a success.
