of them were diagnosed as suffering from trachoma. Fortunately, $5 % of the cases were pronounced "mild," ga 2 "bad", and only 4% "very bad." Most of the cases have since been treated. A team from this school took part in the Hygiene Competition; but owing to the usual exodus of scholars from the higher classes at mid amater, the field of choice was limited and consequently we only gained the 4th place. The innovation of a half holiday no Wedncaday has been much appreciated both by masters and scholars. Football contin ues to be the favourite pastime, and much en thusiasm is displayed in the matches with other schools.

Me Walfe, Inspector of Schools, bówever, han kırdly offered a very handsome cup for this purpose. In conclusing I would like to refer to Mr. Carwin' etsing remarks last year.
