In the course of his address, Sir Chow announced bis intention of creating a new Chinese scholar- ship for the school.

The conception of family life in China does not bring the girl into the same struggle for existence, and, because of the part- she has to play in life, the plan of her education can be more idealistic. Examinations, though having certain worth for her, should not be looked upon as the be-all end- all. She should not consider her education finished with the pass ing of the Senior Local and the final closing of the school door. In reality it should prove a pre- paration for the life now before her; it should colour the long hours of leisure that await her in her home. It is at this moment when school life is finished that she should realise the value of the school training and be able to apply it in the direction of thought, in restraint and self- control, in being able happily and worthily to fill her time.
