Appendix F.
Remarks on Examination of Children from Victoria School.
The failure of the Victoria School in the examination on the Advanced Course seems to call for explanation. The Headmaster points out-
(a.) that the subject was only begun in the middle of the Autumn Term, as there were not sufficient pupils capable of receiving instruction before then;
(b.) that the average age of the pupils is only 12, and that they are not men- tally fit for the study of the Advanced Course;
(c) that they were only entered under pressure from myself.
With regard to the last point, it is true that when I learned that there were not enough pupils to form a Team, I requested Mr. WILLIAMS to send them in for the Advanced Course, rather than that a Government School should be altogether unrepresented at the examinations.

I am pleased to report that HUNG IU-CHI, a genuine Queen's College product, was bracketed third in the Schools' competition in the Advanced Course, while by the success of our Team of ten boys in the Elementary Course, the name of Queen's College will head the list inscribed on the Shield. ROBERT EASTLAKE of III A. and IP U-PAK of IV B. were selected by the Examiners for prizes as
