At the . Initiation for scholarships offered Xv the Board to all children attend in^ the public schools in the province, under the age of 13 years, the fourth scholar ship in the list was obtained this year by liMter Basil Robertson, a pupil of the Ve\rton East School. This spoke highly fin- the standarJ obtained by the scholars, nod reflected credit on tho school. Mr Wilcbel; referred to the trying position of tbe teachers, and appealed to the parents for the assistance of home influence. He Mjltb also of the necessity of the children jfej regular in their attendance and of .-thebenefits they derived from free educa - Profefesdr Thomas presented the prizes to the children, and in an address referred to tfie lectures he had given in natural history to the elder pupils of the public schools.

The study cultivated powers of ob servation and reasoning, Xhe following is the prize list:—Pro fessor Thomas's prizes in natural history : Charles Kiseling, Ist; James Johnson, 2nd : forlwn Hay, 3rd.

Coates) diamissed the school for the jjoliclays.. He spoke of the excellence of tfc*brk; done during the year. The result ,tfsj due to real hard study on the part of both teachers and scholars, and he hoped next year would see a continuation of the feme. Few people, he declared, had any idea what work there was in managing a large school like Newton East, and it &ld only be satisfactorily done with the sympathy of the parents. Mr Coates ipoke at some length on the subject Ithe objectionable quarter money, a name which he contended did not belong to it; A? it was tho only chance he had in tJi£ yfer he would refer to the matter of of coiporal punishment which had been itifmigbt before them so prominently of ■ lie, "Its nad always tried to do without Strand he was sure that the children did |$ regard him in the light of a tyrant. Mi Julius Vogel had stigmatised the »Mpping of one child as a brutal outrage. Sfi was sure the public did not think lai same. The Premier had said that a ti^herwho used corporal punishment IP unfit for his position. This was "■wry inconsistent, for he (Mr Coates) had ; «fc one time tho position of tutor to 'ffie Premier's nepliews and very often had -to use severe corporal punishment, and ;t|<Hjgh this was known to him the Premier todnever interfered or given the boys any Empathy. Ife would have been entirely iis^labed. He concluded with wishing the JHlpila MA merry Cbristmas," the evening the scholars of the i&jool gave the following programme: — Song,: '!The Huntsman's Chorus," Stan- W ft; piano duet, "The Osborne QuadrUle," Miss May Warren and Miss m Offer; recitation, " A Little Girl a Troubles," Miss Elsie Wood; recitation, "This i 8 East and this is West," Infant ClaSses; part dohgi'* Hope will Banish ■fomfi Standard V.; Recitation, "The Bells," Miss E.
