ished the work of grading the pa
pers OF candidates for the office Of

and adjourned at noon.
"rhe papers were the best lot that

We had 40 papers, and only two
failed to pass. The general average
of the candidates is above ninety
and probably be in the vicinity of
80, grading on basis of 100 as per-
