For the Civil Service Junior examination live candidates presented themselves—viz., Misses Grace Smith, Mary Smith, llowena Indcr, Ethel Calder and Master Ralph Malcolm. Mr Munro was the supervisor for the examination held at the Naseby centre, being actively engaged for seven days. Miss W.

We wish the various candidates success and hope we shall be able to congratulate them in a future issue ; in the meantime we wish them a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
