Far East. It is a subject that of necessity: in: proper functions of British education in the terests a large section of the British community in Chica, and acquires increasing importacce year by year.

Mr.Hi L. Beer is sightly anxious to attract attention to the adwrnieges of his school, and to achieve this object he passes in review a number of the more salient features of its curriculum and of the principles upon which it is conducted. Starting from the premise that most of the pupils "whether they finish in England or not, Hooner or later go into busi- boss he he states that "no Greek and com-

To this touchstone of efficiency the Weihniwei School readily responds, and the Headmaster is of opinion that the pecuniary successes of certain old boys" "not only flects great credit on themselves, but bring certain kadar to the school." Mr. Beer also touches upon the actual province of a school and points out that no school can turn a pupil deficient in brain power into a competent and el ver young inan, while "some bays seem borg into the world with a certain inherent moral.crookedness, and they often go wrong at school and continue to go wrong when they DIOCESAN SCHOOL & ORPHANAGE. leave."

education, which, he points out, cannot ba regarded as as intellectual luxury suited only for people who can lead lives of elegant leisure, that brilliant exponent of lithed scholarship, the late Sir Richard Jebb, nece said: "Education seeks to give the human being powers which shall fit him for his social, and physical world. One mark of an unedu cated person is that he is embarrassed by any si uation to which he is not accustomed. The: educated person is able to deal with circum- siances in which he has never been placed be. fore; he is so, because he bas saquired general concep ions; his imagination, his judgment, h's powers of intelligent sympathy have been developed Into all such matters the question rf degree ent: ra, and it is not contended that the preparatory school should set itself a task that can only be performed imperfectly by a University. But the foundations of a liberal education, which is the first instance 'ought to be laid in the home, should assuredly ba cemented more firmly and added to at the preparatory school, if the bay in after life, whether at another school, or elsewhere, is! to be able to deal with circumstances in which he has never been placed before."
When we come to apply our liberal education. upbringing of our youth in the Fari to the will be seen than there is little room left for no inquiry into the nume ber of pounds, shillings and pence sam ed by, this that boy fresh from school. Rather we shall ask whether, through living in a wholly commercial atmosphere, which may well ba evolv d'in the most salubrious neighbourhoods far from stores and godowns, a 100 materialistic bent has been given to a boy's studies, which renders bim incapable of profiting from them in after life; ar whether by reason of the emphasis judiciously laid on the educative as well as on the utilitarian elements of the school's curriculum fija receptivity of new ideas has been properly cultivated. If he is to pass straight from school to business be is likely to prove himself a far better citizen, if "his powers of intelligent sympathy" with)| other things than his immediate work have been developed. If, as is more probable he is to proceed to a more advanced school in England, the responsibility of seeing that his training should fit him for his new sphere be comes will greater. For our own part we be lieve in the advantager of Latin in even an elementary educational schems.
