·A-LITTLE. HISTORY,
Mrs Bateman, the Head Mistress, wrote the report for 1905 ns follows :—I have the honour to submit to you the 15th Annual Report of this schout. As this will be my last report a short resume of the work of the 18 years during which the school has been in existence may not be out of place. The school was originally started by Dr Eitel, H. M. I. whose object was the education of Chinese and Eurasian children, The school was first located in a privato house in Hollywood Road.' Miss Mann, a certificated teacher from England, took charge of the school in March, 1890, and began her work with 20 girls, Miss Man left in August of the same year to be mad was succeeded by Mias
a certificated teacher from England. She following the example of her predecessor left the following August to be married, and Dr Eitel, to quote his own words" refused any longer to conduct such a matrimonial agency" and asked a e to undertake the duties of Head Mistress.
›
Bence my appointment, which dates from September 1891, when the number on the roll was 70. In 1892 these had increased to 95, when it became necessary to seek greater accommodation. It was then that the Hon E. R. Balilios (whose' death we have so lately mourned) came forward with his generous offer to provide a building if the Government would give the ground. This offer was accepted by the Government who gave the ground upon which the Central School for Boys previously stood. This bullding, perhaps the most spacious and airy school in the 'Colony, was given fully furnished with deska, black-boarks, easels and every requiry to the carrying on of school
It was opened in December 1898, by His Excel- lend the Governor Sir William Robinson, The change was a most welcome ono 1376 teachers and children, but in the
Spring the following year our bright perspoots were darkened by that first and terrible visitation of Plague in the Colony. During the months of June and July our school was literally decimated of children. teachers came daily to find only empty deska the average for the month of June being

To inculcate a lovo of reading among the ALL UP-TO-DATE COMFORTS AND EXCELLENT girls, and so help on their education, a school library was started in 1896 with 89 books. To maintain the supply of books the Government generously gave an annual grant to it. The books now number 500 odd volumes. It is largely patronised by the girls attending the school and also by former pupil. It must, in the care of those whose home language is not English, help them to acquire a better command of English.
In reviewing the progress of the school. and the difficulties it has had to contend with, the present numbers, which are greater than they were in 1895-prove that the school con'inues to meet the wants of a considerable section of the community. who would otherwise be unprovided with an education and who ly their regular attendance show their appreciation of the During the past education they receive. year 29 received certificates for regular Attendance; 11 of whom were not once absent, the remainder were within the or two full number by about one
