A statement alleged to have been made in the south reflecting on the eduction system in vogue ; iii the Auck'lantl Grammar Schools was refuted by the Minister of Education, avhen presenting prizes at the Mount Albert Grammar School on Thursday. “I am glad to see from the headmaster’s report, that your-health' is good,”-said the Hon.Mr-Parr, addressing the boys: “The physical ’ development ’of the prize-winners is aMaf contradiction to a statement I heard-in t.he-south to ;: tlie effect that prize-winners at the Grammar Schools- in Auckland were mostly delicate, anaemic /swots/’ (Loud, incredulous laughter from the boys.) You boys who have hot won’ prizes,” Mr Parr added; "will agree with’me that those who have won prizes are not merely good ‘swots,’ but are also able to hold; their own in the playing fields.” r 20,% REDUCTION IN "CEREMILK” PRICES The very great demand for "Ceremilk-” brought about a substantial reduction in price, but the product is of- the same high standard.
