Mr. SMITH then proposed the following resolu-

tion for acceptance by the Board :-

"That, having regard to the loss of time and to the inconvenience likely to be occasioned, more

particularly to the pupils, by further delay, the Board proceed to examine the School on the basis

of the Grant-in-aid Scheme as placed before us by Dr. EITEL and approved by the Head Master,

the Examiners having due regard to the circum-

stance that the School has already undergone a

Masters' examination, now nearly concluded, and

that the work of the School has not been carried

on with a view to benefits to be derived under that Scheme, and that further the Examiners

reserve to themselves the privilege of asking for

the production of such examination papers and

of taking such assistance from the teachers as

may seem to them just and reasonable."

Mr. LECHLER having seconded this resolution,

Dr. CHALMERS said he was entirely opposed to it

unless the papers already begun by the pupils of

the School were completed by them.

Dr. EITEL asked if the examination papers

were required by the Board as a basis for their

examination, or merely to compare the results of these

with the eventual results of a new papers

and independent examination by the Board.

Dr. CHALMERS said he had already seen the

papers, at least some of them.

The motion of Mr. SMITH being put to the vote,

it was agreed to by all, with the exception of Dr. CHALMERS, who remarked he had doubts whether

he would have time to go through this examina- tion, and said that this was a violent proceeding, dangerous to the School.

The details of the scheme arranged by Dr. EITEL for the examination of the School in English were then formally accepted, the Acting Head Master, Mr. ARTHUR, having been called in and assured the Board that he had considered the details, in consultation. with Dr. STEWART, who also agreed with him in saying that this scheme was fair to the School.

Dr. EITEL next explained the details of the scheme he had drawn up, in consultation with

Dr. STEWART and Mr. ARTHUR, for the examina- tion of the School in Chinese, and proposed

that Dr. CHALMERS should conduct this examina- tion, assisted by Mr. NG CHOY and Dr. WONG, as a Sub-Committee.

Dr. CHALMERS said that if the examination be- gun by the Masters was not to be finished first, he would decline to act on a Sub-Committee.

Dr. EITEL then read the list he had prepared,

in consultation with Dr. STEWART and Mr. AR- THUR, of the special subjects in which some of the classes were to be examined, and proposed that the Government Analyst, Mr. HUGH MACCALLUM, should be invited to assist the Board in the examination of the Chemistry Classes. This proposal was agreed to by all the Members of the Board.

The Acting Head Master, in reply to a question,

stated that if he were asked to produce the finished and unfinished papers of the Masters' examina- tion, he would produce them at once.
