The members of the first section re-
ceived their diplomas by obtaining a
general average of rs per cent. IN all
subjects for the three years of their
course. According TO the first order
on the subject, the second section To
graduate was TO consist of those who
succeeded in bringing their aggregate
up TO the same per cent. by. their work
during the present term. It was foun d
that this would only obtain a small
number of additional graduates, and
the order was changed so tnat the sec
tion included all those who obtained
75 per cent. for the first three years
and as per cent. for the work of the
present term. The 80 midsnipmen
mentioned below have obtained this
standing and will graduate early next

ing January, which is likely TO be
done in all or nearly all cases.
