ALWAYS A STUDENT
SIR ROBERT STOUT’S RECORD
“Follow the example of Sir Robert Stout,” Mr J. K. Oaughley, Director of Education, urged students at Wellington College yesterday. Despite Sir Robert’s long and varied career, said Mr Ganghley, they would all think of him more than anything else as representing education in New Zealand. In early times he was a primary school teacher, and ever since those days Sir Robert had always been closely associated with education in this country. Throughout his career he had never ceased to he a student. He did not give up study when he left school. Throughout his life he had made it a point to take up r. new study every winter; sometimes it waa a new language, sometimes it was -science, or some new line of reading. The result wda that Sir Robert Stout had become on i of the most cultured of men, and one of the finest gentlemen.
