Huron. In order to pane, a candidate
meet have made 40% of the marks on
esob eubjeot, and 60% of the whole
number of marks. The maximum
.number of marks was 660 ; the minimum
number to paen, 390. The names of
those who obtained 70% or over are ar•
ranged alphabetically in the honor lief.
The pass list inoludee all the other ono•
easeful oandidatee. Thee was the first
Entrance Examination held under the new
curriculum and the namber of sncoeeeful
oandidatee compared with thoee that
wrote ie about the same 88 in former
years. All.,the examination papers were
fair and well graded, and in the ease of
eoboole in ()barge of experienoed teachers
there were hardly any failures, Brueeele,
Wingham, Clinton, Seaforth and Blyth
passing every candidate sent up. Some
young teachers sent ap pupils at leant a
year too soon.
In this Innpeotorate no pupil was re•
jetted who is fit to take up Fifth Claes
work, and none passed who ie not able to
enter in the higher work of the Public
or High School.
The gni aimed at in thin Ioepeotorate
is to have teachers display each judg.
went in Bending up pupils that there will
be no tailrace, That a teacher who eende
up twenty.one aaudidatee std .pas one
failure will not may "I have done very
well," but"I bave had one .failure too

It may be added that She spelling
paper was too difhoalt for ungraded

be wall to introdaoe it in the Third
