One of the most useful contributions to the discussion of the question has been made by Col, Sir H. Knollys, late R.A., whose service extended over years.

The open scholarship system was open to many abuses, the worst being persp hape the tendency in schools that pre- pared students for such scholarships to work up to that point as an end. That was pernicious, since it led very often to over-training so that a boy at 18 or reached actually a higher point in the study of his subject than he ever got to afterwards,

The same thing applied to such exami- nations as the Civil Service examination. It was very difficult to defeat the cram
Almost all the good places in cer- tain examinations were carried off by those who had been trained in two.or three "cramming" institutions.
