For Sale is a Half Page removed from "The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, August 23rd, 1913," showing the Following 3 Photographs for "The £5,000 Hydro-Aeroplane Race round Great Britain."

The competition is for £5,000 offered by "The Daily Mail" for the success of a British waterplane fitted with a British engine.  The minimum distance to be covered in this contest is about 1,600 miles.  Mr. Hawker collapsed with sunstroke last Saturday, and his machine was taken over by Mr. Pickles, who then found the water too rough for a continuation of the journey.
