Newspaper article titled "2nd Sculpture Prize Won By Mrs. S. C. Fuller." In pencil vertically along the left side is written "Boston Guardian". The article is as follows: "Mass. Branch of Woman's Peace Party Awards $25 Prize to Former Philadelphia, Zeta Karrick Fuller. Mrs. Malcolm Forbes Elected President. The Boston Post of 24th instant reports: - Miss Rose A. Garrity of 77 Gainsboro street, a pupil of Roger Burnham, the sculptor, was yesterday awarded the sculpture prize of $50 offered by the Massachusetts Branch of the Woman's Peace Party for the best sketch conception of the constructive peace movement. The subject of her composition for the peace prize was "Peace Rests Upon International Law. Which is Built and Upheld by the People." The second sculpture prize of $25 was awarded to Mrs. Meta Z. [sic] W. Fuller of Framingham. The title of her sketch was "Peace Halting the Ruthlessness of War." Mrs. Fuller has studied sculpture in Philadelphia and Paris and is said to have done very meritorious work. The art committee of the Woman's Peace Party believes that later it may be arranged to have these two sketches worked on a large scale into bronze or stone and also to be the inspiring ideas in others of the fine arts. Mrs. J. Malcolm Forbes was elected president and Mrs. John Richardson, Jr., treasurer."
