1.The total number on the Roll, 1416 was 95 less than the previous year, while the average daily attendance was 1015, or 15 in excess. These comparative figures establish the following facts, that Queen'a College was as full in 1905 as in 1904, but that there was a further improvement in regularity of attendance, and that fewer boys left in the course of the year, which is further supported the fact

only 373

2.-The Estimates provided 888,694 for 1905, of thle only 880,535 were spent. The amount of School Fees was $31,387 covering nearly 62 per cent of the total Expenditure. There was an increase ir Fees of $2,339, of which 81,660 are directly due to the extra half-dollar a month charg ed to each scholar in the Upper School, The balance 8679 is assignable to the improved attendance mentioned above.

The boys seemed to find the subject interesting, but the dozen that remained for the Annual Examination disappointed me, as their work was inferior to that shown at Mid- Term examinations.

The reaalts in Freehand were excellent, but Geometrical Drawing chiefly owing to absence of Text books, was poor. Kwan Iu Ki of III.A distinguished himself with 118 out of 200 marks, the highest total. Wo hope next term to proceed to Model Drawing.

19. It will be remembered that six -years ago, Hon Mr J, H, Stewart Lockhart,

when he distributed the prizes here,

said that Queen's College ought to have a Gymnasium, In 1901 affairs had reached to advanced a stage that a plan for the building had been made, but it was discovered that the Government could not at present, afford the expense, and it was proposed temporarily to utilise the base ment of the college for gymnastics. At length votes were included "in the 1905 Estimates, 8400 for gymnastic appliances and $270 for an instructor. Through the kind services of the Military Authorities an excellent instructor has been provided in Sergeant D. Taylor, R.G.A., and 80 boys" boon under instruction since last April:,but) what are they among so many?

14.Last February I submitted a scheme for forming a Collegiate class above and beyond the curriculum cf Class I in -Queen's College. No response worth men

tioning has been made, indicative of a desire on the part of the Chinese to avail themselves of the opportunity. It is now

to be hoped that Evening Extension classes

may moet the want in this direction, that ought not to be purely imaginary.

It is not surprising that after laboriously think. ing and expressing himself in a foreign language during several hours of a protrac- -ted examination the Chinese boy should find himself so weary, as not to have his mental faculties under complete control.
