In the theoretical class there were only six failures out of 31 candidates, notwithstanding that the high percentage of 85 marks was required to secure a pass, while in the practical division, in which 40 per cent, of a possible 50 was required, nine out of 13 candidates got through. This result is highly creditable both to the instructor, Mr J. _ Graham, of the Wanganui Technical College, and to the candidates themselves.
