Note.-It is proper to say, III explanation OF thc
number of honors, that tie rules provide that they
shall fall to eccry boy who reaches the required
standard. that this circumstance excited very gene
raj effort and that here elsewhere, proper ciort
always wins success.
The scholarship in 3IcGuirc's School is divided DC
tween two contestants because their averages diuereu
BY very small fraction, and 1t was inanfestly uii-
lust TO decide s;ch question by 50 aGeqiate tes'
rs a numerical estimate of school-sttndlhg. we
conprotuate ourselves that the success OF one
candidate does not consign 10 ctasrin and secret
modification another whose noble effort deserved
worthy recognition.
The rules further provide that student who, ,h'Thg
won the University scholarship of one session. at
tends school for another, shall not be candidatci~ i~
school-prizes. d. /. Ai'"oiHh'
