The open scholarship system was open to many abuses, the worst being persp hape the tendency in schools that pre- pared students for such scholarships to work up to that point as an end. That was pernicious, since it led very often to over-training so that a boy at 18 or reached actually a higher point in the study of his subject than he ever got to afterwards,

The same thing applied to such exami- nations as the Civil Service examination. It was very difficult to defeat the cram

Almost all the good places in cer- tain examinations were carried off by those who had been trained in two.or three "cramming" institutions.
