THE WINDHAM ADVANCE, THURSDAY, JULY 20,
BAST HURON ENTRANCE
EXAMINATION.
1905,
\Vo give below the 1taines of the
successful eandiclates who wrote on
the recent Entrance Examination in
most of the centres of East Huron.
In order to pass, a candidate must
have made 40% of the marks on each
subject, and 00% of the whole number
of marks, The maxiinulu nember of
marks was 050 ; the minimum number
to pass, 300. The names of those
wlio obtained 70' or over are arrang-
ed alphabetically in the honor list.
The pass lists Include all the other suc-
cessful candidates. This was the first
entrance examination held inkier the
new curriculum and the number of
successful candidates compared with
those that wrote ote is about the same as
in former years. All the examination
papers were fair and well graded, and
in the case of schools in charge of ex-
perienced teachers there were hardly
any failures. Clinton, Wingham,
Brussels, Seaforth and Blyth passing
every candidate sent up. Some
youngFF
)t )'i:• n{; least
a teacher's sent up i i 5
year too soon. [ 1
In this Inspectorate no pupil was re-
jected who is fit to take up Fifth class
work, and none passed who is not able
to enter on the Higher work of the
Public, or High School.
The goal aimed at in this Inspector-
ate is to have teachers display such
judgment in sending up pupils, that
there will be no failures. That a
teacher who sends up twenty-one ean-
didates and has one failure will not
say "I have done very well," but "I
have guest ono failure too many."
It may be added that the Spelling
paper was too difficult for the ungrad-
ed schools, as these schools do not
usually use the spelling book before
pupils enter the Fourth Class. It
would, we think be well to introduce
it in the Third Class.

"SVho owns that house?" he asked.

He must spend nine dollars in living
expenses for every dollar saved. That
being the case he cannot be too care-

like buying seeds for his garden, will
save several dollar$ outlay later on.
It is the same in buying Chamberlain's
