'ideal school should be given to ENO school forthwith
after its instigation, instead of being laid by fur 'whiting
in a tabulated luminary at the end of the year. They
think it also deeiriible that the annual report of the
Elination Department should be eikiressed by them-
selves to Her Majesty iti Council. Their Lurviehipe ere
