result in the more cordial co-operation of the British and Chinese nations and closer intercourse between them.

It is well said that large outlay on education is, if wisely directed, far from being necessarily open to the charge of extravagance. On the contrary, an excellent system of public education is one of the best forms of national investment. In commercial and industrial efficiency, in a higher level of civic duty, and above all, in the wider diffusion of moral culture and religious feeling, the nation is amply repaid for what it spends.

We beg to subjoin a scheme which roughly represents our proposals. Should His Excellency deem them worthy of consideration we shall be happy to discuss them more fully in a personal interview at any time that His Excellency may desire.

We have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servants,
