A BOY'S FUTURE
In a recent speech the Eev. J. D. Day, headmaster of Stamford School, remarked that in recent years circumstances had forced him to the conclusion that it was impossible to decide a boy's future career until lie reached the age of 17. Until then lie -held whims and caprices, but for some peculiar psychological or physiological reason until a month or two before or after that age he had no established idea what ho wished to become.
Capacity !for work' and the mysterious quality known as character were ii boy's •greatest virtues, irtid at the school they had inaugurated a system of assessing those qualities at live points each. To Vie double live was a higher honour than to win any prize, and he Hoped that parents of the 13 boys so, assessed would feel that it reflected honour. /
