· PRIZE DAY AT THE CENTRAL SCHOOL
The annual distribution of prizes took place at the Government Central School on Saturday morning in the presence of a considerable aum ber of visitor. The prizes were presented by His Excellonoy the Acting Governor, who was- socompanied by Mrs. Mash. Amongst thou pre- ient were the Right Ror. Bishop Bardan, Hon. F. Stewart, LL.D., Acting Colonial Secretary: Hon. W. Keswick, Hen. Wag Shing, Livut.- Colonel Murray, A.C.G.O.; Mr. A. G. Romane, Consal for Portugal and Brasil Captain Parter, A.D.C.; Dr. Eitel, Inspector of School: Rar. Dr. Chalmers, Ret. Dr Faher. Rev. J. C. Edge: Brothers: Cyprian and Williams of St. Joseph's College; Mr. Granville Sharp, Mr: Hamilton Sharp, Mr. Woi Ayak, Dr. Ho Kai, Mr. J. H. Cor, and several ladies.
Mr. G. E. BATERON. WRIGHT, the Hond Hastor, opened the proceedings by speaking as follows May it please Your Excellency, ladies and gentlemen, the total number of boys on the school roll for the past year was 306. Of thes 499 wote present at one time in the month of March. It might be supposed that this ingresse of numbers was due to overcrowding of the school. It will be therefore a well to explain that the aumbers in the Middle, Lower al Preparatory Schools remained at their old figure; the increase must therefore be attribute to the Upper School and is the direct risnit of the higher standard of work introduced two years ago into the Middle and Lower Schools. Out of 412 boys just examined 95 per cent, passed, the same percentage as last year, but na muru boys underwent examination and the papers were of a more searching character, I think the result may be considored of a higher order. This Fear I introduce as a novelty into the examina tion of the firstclassja "general intelligence paper."
