EXAMINATIONS.

In the Hongkong University Examinations we had a record number of passes for the school. Nine matriculation and six-senior certificates were obtained. Last November in Class 1 seven can- didates were presented and the passes were a hundred per cent. Ng Taiping, who passed the Junior in 1923 with ten sections; passed with honours and distinc tion in Chinese. He succeeded in winning a Government Student- ship and the King Edward VIL Scholarship, which has seldom been awarded to a Hongkong Chinese candidate. One other point worth mentioning is that all the seven boys were the products of our own school. Mutagen?

A temporary scholarship has been given to the best boy in classtenable for three years, by a gentleman who wishes to re- main anonymous. I take this opportunity to thank him, and I hope his example will be followed by others who wish to encourage education.
