It remains to consider the chances of ob- -taining a better man from Home. I have spoken on the subject of Secondary Inspectors and their work with Mr. Hinton, of the University, who numbers some among his friends. I give his opinion for what it is worth: to me it seems rather convincing. It is that a Secondary Inspector is usually a man who has been to the Univer- -sity and there taken a year's post-graduate course in Teaching, and who may thereafter have had some experience as a master at a public school. But generally speaking they acquire their knowledge of the technique of teaching gradually by intercourse with practics. teachers of different views and methods in the course of years of inspecting schools. Such experience, combined with the traditional knowledge of their own department, makes them in the end to be very valuable advisers.. The point is that until this experience is gained, they are not likely to be so useful when absent from the help of senior officers.

The maximum pay we are offering is the same, nominally, as this class of men gets at home, and in practice it is much less, when cost of living, passages, double establishments for

married men with families at home, climatic risks &c., &c., are

considered. So the only real inducement we have to offer is the

comparatively high initial pay, £600 instead of £400. This attract- -ion diminishes in direct proportion with the seniority and con-

-sequent experience of the man, and except in the case of a novice

would be negligible. That is why I was for offering the additional

attraction of the reversion of my own office. But I fully appre- -ciate the difficulties attending that suggestion.

The next few years may decide whether Hongkong

is to be not merely the emporium but the University of Southern

China. There is no need to dilate on this attractive prospect, nor on the material prosperity that would be part of such a development. Responsibility rests heavy on my Department to keep up the proper supply of raw material for undergraduates. The Government has offered me liberal assistance, and on the whole I feel that at this juncture, I would rather have Ralphs to work with than the chance

take
