Satisfactory Examinations. Our Examination results are

threa satisfactory. Out of the rick who sat for Matriculation, two passed and one passed Senior, and out of the eight who took spirit, but rather in a spirit of Senior, five passed. In the Junior examination fourteen were entered and eleven passed, one with dis- tinction in Rotany, one with dis tinction in English and one with distinctions in Chinese and Music. It is particularly gratifying to have

distinction both in English and in Chinese, as this is at Anglo-Chinese School. It in our first distinction in Chinese for many years, and I hope it will not be the last. In the study of the Chinese Language a great deal is dependent on individual effort, and I hope this success may encourage The rest of the school to devote no
