WHAT IS YOUR WISH, AND WHY SHOULD WE MAKE YOURS COME TRUE?

Criswell Design & Publication and Diversified Business Enterprises 
is sponsoring an essay/art/poetry contest to convey your wish and 
why it should come true for you. Whatever your dream is could be 
yours if your entry is selected as the Grand Prize Winner. Let your 
creativity or gift for words express your wish. Any form may be 
used, whether it is written, photographs, drawings, etc. The entries 
will be judged by a panel of 5 independent judges from the Phoenix 
area. They will choose the Grand Prize Winner and three runners-up 
to also win prizes. Please keep in mind that the winners will NOT be 
chosen based solely on artistic ability. They will take into 
account, however, the way in which you present your wish and your 
creative expression of it.

This contest is for all age groups, but minors must have a parent's 
permission to enter. Parents are encouraged to help their children 
show their wish and why it is so important to receive it.

Also, you must give the name of the charity or organization you 
would like to donate to, because part of the proceeds from this 
contest will go to the charity of the Grand Prize Winner's choice. 
Whether it's feeding homeless children, for the environment, or a 
local church...whatever organization you feel should receive support 
will get it all because of you.

The judges will also select other top entries to be compiled in a 
work titled "Oh, I Wish." Even if you don't win the Grand Prize, 
which is, of course your dream come true, you may be a featured 
entrant in "Oh, I Wish." 

Contest deadline is September 15, 1996. Winners will be notified by 
October 15, 1996. All entries become the property of Diversified 
Business Enterprises and Criswell Design & Publication and will not 
be returned. Sponsors are not responsible for late, misdirected or 
mutilated entries. The winners will also receive a copy of "Oh, I 
Wish". 

Submit your entry (no longer than one page for written entries and 
11x17 for pictorials) with $2 (to protect you, please do not send 
cash) to Criswell Design & Publication. Make sure your name, address 
and phone number is on the back of the entry. To receive a copy of 
"Oh, I Wish" please enclose $14.95 (plus $2.50 s+h) and allow 6-8 
weeks for delivery after the September 15 deadline. If you would 
like a list of winners and prizes awarded, please include a SASE 
with your entry. You may also request a copy of the complete rules 
and guidelines:
