Inter-School Bxhihitions: То Improve the standard of embroi dery and millinery schools, inter- school exhibitions should be held to promote competitive interest in this work. Such displays would also give the teachers of vocation- al schools in Hunan an opportun Ity of seeing the industrial work of other provinces, thus promoting eficiêncy by friendly competition resulting from observing the me- ¦ thods of other industrial centrés.

Education Committee: Since the former Vocational Edu- cation Committeé no longer exists, a Vocational Planning Committee should be organized under the auspices of the Hunan Provincial Department of Education, in order that the work of the various voca- tional schools may be better co- ordinated.
