a partion of the recent Government grant was not earmarked for investment: it in no way means that there is any sur plus on current working, whether to make good existing and admitted deficiencies, or provide for the expansion which: increasing numbers will render urgently necessary in the near future.
It will be remeinbered that in the Budget estimates the items Eniversity Examination fees" and "Matriculation and Lecal Examination fees"
were left blank on both sides of the account, on the ground that the recent charge in, the fees for our local examinations rendered nay accurate estimate imposible: it was. however, stated that those examinations would be conducted at a css. The net cost of University examination is now. shown at $98173, while there is a loss ca Matriculation and Local Examination fers of 84,050, 33. The last mentioned item is rather alarmingly heavy, and is to be attributed to the increased number of candidates and to the excessive-cost of stationery. The loss provided for in the 1022 Budget is" 83,300 only, and, as a fur- ther increase in the number of candidates is.to be expected, it will be necessary to consider how our loss can be minimised. I should be very reluctant to recommend a further increase of fees at the pterot moment.
