It is no wonder that the world always awaits with breathless interest the results of the efforts of the great research worker. This interest aroused by the modern natural scientists, is also attracted by antiquarians. We all remember the search for the tomb and body of Tut-ank- amen, which gave such sensational results as to astonish the world.

Public authorities Wales, supported by teachers' con- in North
ferences, are uniting in an effort to secure greater elasticity in the curricula of the elementary schools in rural areas. They suggest that the education of rural children, In- stead of being identical with that given in town schools, should bear a closer relation to their environ- mont, and that the existing system
gives the country pupils a positive distaste for agricultural pursuits, with the result that they migrate to the towns and thus aggravate an already difficult problem.
The subject is being approached from a new angle by the Advisory Committees for Juvenile Employ- ment, in co-operation with the la- bour exchanges, who see in the Board of Agriculture scholarship scheme the possibility of effecting to some extent the change which the local education authorities have hitherto failed to bring about.
Mr. William George, brother of the ex-Premier, a governor of the North Wales University College,
considers the scholarship scheme excellent so far as it goes, but sug gested that it should be extended to apply to children under 16 and should be combined with scheme for finding agricultural em- ployment for students who complete the course,
