R. KIDD, e Secretary. e mHE CHURCH OF ENGLANE e X GRAMMAR SCHOOL. v THE HEADMASTERS RETORT For the Winter Term, ls9o. The Term opened amidst general satisfaction, owing to the result of the Bishop's Prizes Exami _ nation, which had just teen published. From the pass lists it appeared that more than one-third ol the successful candidates belonged to this school, viz. Ist Gray, Kempt 3rd Hall, George I Senior Grade, sth Hall, James " Class I. 9th Wynyard, James J » 3rd Stichbury, tries j sth Devt-reux, Humphrey ( Senior Grade, Gth Snelling, Owen i" Class IL loth Frazer, William ) J Ist Hammond, H. } J, ™^ , ] I rade ' t For a school of some forty boys, I respectfully submit that these results are brilliant, and I beg t« return my heartiest thanks to Mr. ."Smallfield, who so ably ltsl our boys to a great success ; to the boys themselves tor that concentrated effort without which nothing worthy is to be won ; and especially j to our old boys. Kempt Gray and James Hall, why came back once more to the scene of their former victories to contend for the renown of their old school. Who can doubt that boys that did so well at this examination, covering such a wide extent oi ground, will do equally well at purely secular ex. animations'! The matter will eoon be put to a deci- - sire test, for several of these boys are preparing for the Junior Civil Service and Matriculation examinations. Meanwhile, is it of small importance that boys are thoroughly grounded in the fundamentals of their belief ? If we are to judge by the loud wailing one hears over a "Godlesseducation" it is not; but, . if we are to decide by the amount of practical support extended to this school by Church of England people, it must be a matter of small moment. Some persons may say that we sacrifice other subI jecis to impart so much religious knowledge. To f that it ought to bo sufficient to point out that two , of our Old Bovs, viz. :— "LEWIN .SHEPPARD And I ALFRED TURNER, B parsed the recent examination of the Board of 1 Education, and are now teaching under the Board. r Finally I beg to refer to the subjoined testimonials. 1 They were unsolicited, and ought to be conclusive ; B but if they are not, then I appeal from the injustice of the present to the justice of the future, in the '. firm confidence that my boys will prove me right in the end, for the only final" test of any system oi education is the question " Does it produce good citizens?" those who " Fear Gotland honour the king.' 1 HENRY PERCIVAL.
