CONTENT OF THE SACKED HEART, TTMARTJ. This fine educational establishment was founded in Timaru over thirty years ago. It is well knnwn that the aim of the Order is the higher educa- - ton of girls, and this has, in some quarters, led to the utterly false idea that the Religious «f the Sacred Heart do not undertake to prepare pupils for tie various local examma.tions.

It is an uncommon, advantage that the members of the teaching staff are recraiied_ from all parts of tie world, owing to the onir.?rsal extension of the Order.
