The last session of the Provincial Education Conference was held on the 12th inst, with Mr. Wong Cheah, Commissioner of the Depart ment of Education, presiding. The attendance was somewhat smaller than at the previous sessions, about 150 people only being present.

The Conference held seven sessions altogether, the more important of the numerous proposals being picked out for at- tention. There are now left about 100 proposals of minor nature, and
