Tijeie wero OOIlle noticeable fea- twes in connoction with this examination. Ono was tl. ooniparative faiksre in Latm of tho inn or boys, only iour p-iasing out of 19 entered. This was t)«*, more perplexing as the resints obl^-irntxi in uLe subject had usually been good. A pleas.ng' feature which might be s-^t against ♦he icas saUaiactory on&s was the splendid 4ioen jn English. In this bect.on 51 oi 57 juniors and 47 out o £ 5D preluiwcaries obtaiiied & pass. These r<asiilts appeared to show thiit, l»w«ver poor the Engliaii might 030 in other paj-ts of \Va»ei, ii was, judged by the Oxford standard, partoularly well taught vn wi° -r school., (applause). The Oxford i^cai afforded1 facilities for exaniinatioun in a very wide range of subjects. H vgienc, a subject not p eviously tack'.vxi in this "centre, was offered by s<v?-ai -Oaijuiaatoos and a icw jva&sed. A few of tbe aotxkyLs had done very W2.ll, but on the whole the .result was below normal. For t-ie first time for many years not a. single oan>ajdate entered at ,the. centra obtained a. <istiiwtio-ti.

LLOYD'S SPEECH. I This happy little oercrnony tjver l'rd, Lloyd, 4MkliessL!ig the aud,.e.iioo, said that what now d»- Tolv'd iijxjn h.:m was a formal and uruicKjessary J #art of the proceedings. It was tho ousiom on jbart of the proceedings. It was tho ousiom on occasions for the person whose piea.sajit- itaty it was to distribute the prizes and cerUi- i -cu<te,-> to add something in the way of general re. I tuarks, Jicssibly by way of an antidote to tiiia peasant reel .ngs and joy of'the recipients of tho prizes and certificate* ^lau^likr). He hardly lelt spec:ally qualified for that duty except per- i kaps ior Uie faoct that many years ago he wis a -candidate on more than occa.i.i-nn for those- Jwcal i.waini.nations, and that enabled him at any rate u> appreciate leelingB of those wJIoQ h.;t I gone through the ordeal they had just pas&od through (hear, hear, and laughter). He well I • eniomfcered thø dignified gmtloman who pre- t 6'¡"¡cd over their i>c-ceedings oa 01#of Cicse occa- li.oris attired in academic gown and soarlet hood I and how kind he was when in the afternoon lie gave them hal'f an- hour.&o that chey could see Ccn-ccd Grant-, ",ho happened to he that day a visitor to Liverpool, and to hear the organist play national Mrs on the g-roat organ in St. George's Hal!. Since- than his. interests had lain, in other directions. # Hi3 work, first in oon- Moetion tne Lniv'-orsity of IxJiidon bhon witSi the University of Wates. had nothing to do with secoEukiry oiucauon it^alf; it had ohiof- iy ill (onnection with tho Weiah secondary «\s'eiri, and with that othr sysfrani of local ex- a.m::iat.or.s conducted by a Board which, as t'aoy wore ;)Ji aware, was just now sailing gallantly &<Hxgri trtjmbJecf waters (applause). He wn, I*i*erer, vory glad of that opportunity to soo of the work which was going cm in j that very important oentre of civic life in North Wales. Col'.vyii Bay rapidly creeping up regards population, rateable vakte and the rest oi it to lihe proud position of CAPITAL OF NORTH WALES. He waa not quite SUM whether it had not actual- I ly reitobed tiiat distinction—(itear, hear),—and that tiiie> oomrminity really meant, to play theiir pait, in tibs puhiio life of this part of tlie world was evidiasit Irom tho very successful Nationail EistackiiOil iiexl iiberc in iibe course of the eumraer | nwmtuis. He was also glad of the opportunity to express h.s c*ordiaj goodwill towards tftte in- atitutorts which were cluofly nepreeented at that moot-tig, sahools which in the main 110 doubt w-ure non-local, but owing their popularity and existence very largtely t:) the health-giving pro- perties 0; tihe North Wales coast, but also did to some exte:rit meot tho needs, so far as second- ary educaiuon was oonoeraed. of tihe dj-rt.r.ct in which they found" t-.tomseives, in addition to catering for distant centres n England, tlius xonmtng an important element in the general edruoattonal syst<>m of North Wales (hc-ar, hear). Apart Irom ali that, ihowevec, ho would be giad to play his humble part that aiternoon wore it only out of respsct to the- mcen.ory <Ji one whose iKumo had been aJu-eady nien-t.oned, and whom he would always regard with feelings of deepest veneration ajiii peapect, namely the late Mr T. G. Oeborn. At th<a Una when they unhappily lost Mir Cfeborn nmich was said in many carolee about his pubiic sarvioew— as a niag^etrate, as a prominent iigure in tle IjJ-e 01 that cojnjnunity, his service to the great Coniiiexion to which h& bekaiged, axia for wiikih ihe did so much, his service to etkicat.«4i in generaJ, something being a.6o said of the service he resxlerod to the III- tjtitu-c.ori wuii tthtub fl." ,t1b9 spoaker) was direct- ly connected, tee University College of North Wales. But his service to the University was so pre-anr m?nt tliat he was glad 0: that, oppor- tunity to add one word more by way oi appre- ciation oi the enormous debt winioh the Bangor Coller^ owed for trie many years' service given toO it by Mr OsboriL He was a member of the Couno-.l of t.h.e College aimost from the start, for a gwd many years at any rate before he (Prot. Lloyd) went tOOe, and throughout those years Mr Osborn was what one might regard) as THE BEAU IDEAL of what a member of a body of that kind should bo. Not merely was he regular in 'his attend- ance, 04ton attending as he (the speaker) know at great inoonvenrcWioe, in the jivxist of pressure of sohool work and otaer business; not only did he give liberally—he did not for a moment re- gard the personal servjos wiiich he gave as ex- eanpting lnm from giving his support in othor ways—but the which he playoo in theti-r cum-mittee meetings and gatherings was of a very specially va<hiable kind, and as such was particularly valuable inasmuch as it was not done in pubic, ard therefore did not receive at the tune ainy real publio reoogtriton. There was in Mr Osfcorn a very Impjiy combinationi—a fine .independence of judgment, perfect courtesy and full ooKSHierafajon for ulae feelings and opinions of others. He was emjihatioaily a strong man, always prepared to take. a line of his own, never to bs only just an echo of the opinions of others; he could on occasion alone if he thought tihat ccTGUimstances called* for ail attitude of pro- test On tlie other hand, there was no one more considerate of the opinions of otiers nor more rearly to yield where lie felt he might do so con- aistently with principle. There was no one more easy U> work witih in that sense. He had! vory definite po».tkil and leiigious views, and yet those views were never allowad to influence his conduct in toTbreob,ii vvitn coilcge business; one felt that k- regarded e-very ouc-st on purely from the point of view oi the hig-liest interests oi the college. Mr Osborn's \'tho].' 1,, oonspicu- ousiy ilhistrat-xl the motto or the school with vwn.oh his name woukl always be associated, '"Servloe rat.aer tham Distinction." THE JikXAMiNATFON A NECESSARY EVIL. Continuing, Prof. Lloyd said there were many subjects attracting attenton m educati-csnai spitores which t-oinpled one to speak upon. As a member of the Denbighshire Education Com- mi-t,t<ee, he w¡¡. wdl aware that there was one cducivtional subject wftixaa had great interest to many m ColwJn Bay, and taeie wore other more or less ta-orny topics which one, if rash enough, might embark upon—(laughter),—but bAg, fait it was diue to ttie p»-opr;ete3 01 that OO<- snjin to leave such topics severely alone tliat after- noon. He would there confine his remaining' law sentences to exaaiiinatuous, a. niore or less appro- pr.ate subject unckvr the circumstances. Not that it was a very agreeable one. 'iiiougii proiad of their ¡¡O(;cs. tJiat ckty ho lelt sure all the bo>s and giris wto had Iwen sitting ior that exuiiiuiiw- lion would agree with lum tnat tJJe actuai pio- cees of exiunmution wa-s not a very I on-6 (kwu-ghter). Sjieaicirig fioun tiiie otiau* side ot this table as an exairmaier he oouki assure them that the business of examumng was not a very exhilarating one either (laughter). Apart irotn tne transient joy when one got in; iiiie- ior doing the work ihe busines.* was wear .some and quite w tedious to the examiner as to the can- Ujciate. Neverblieiess, he thought the cxaimna- Uon was a neocssary ev J (hear, hear and laughter). Prof. Lloyd siruke of tine influence of the experience of the acl,ua: examin-ation and the prelim.nasry training for it upon the develop- ment and subsxnuent well being of the candidate, but 'he jwotested against certain pjiases Of exiwm- nation work. Itie j';rÎt..sh public ioved statistics. They had beeai fed upon by politician and thsy were to have a renewed' diet of tnem again (laughter)* Everytuhung was reàuOtxl to rule of liaree and figures. Such aof passes luoajiit a success; a loiver percentage meant i'a.jure. Tliat was a very unfortunate way 01 re- z rii garding eiiucatkMial woik ajwi every teacher vvoukl depreciate in a strong way having his work as a whole judged by the success of his pupils in passing examinations (appbu). Ib did. not be neve examinations could be dispensed with in either sdltools Or beoauae they aiiond-<M.i an useful test of some qualities Wihich proved telpiul to the caiaiidaLe in after- life; but ihc-re werc many other q-u-al.trcs equally important, if not more important, that should iu- iiuenoe tiheix nuocks in that matter. The sobool course included instruction in otiter ways which ooukl not possibly be decitkni or measured by examinations. Among tihesn were the power to make wise use of books, the power to make use of material not stored in the brain, to arrange bcoks of reference before one; the faculty of cultivating a literary taste; the power of judg- cnem; the power of conducting a long research into a difficult quest.on and deliberately coming into a sound- judgment upon it and so forth. So that tilezo was a Nery wdo ii-el,ki which the in- structor had to cover wluoh could not be decided by the teat of an exami- nat.iori, and therefore, for thctae amd other rea- sons it was unfair and unsatissaclory to appraise the value of ths work by any st-jtool or university merely by examination roan Its (ap plause). The red teaclier was the man who ian w ih s work and i^erfornvod it conscientiously, doing hw best for his pupib. never laying hi ill. 9<1f out merely to pass them through examina- tions (apfdause). THE SCIENCE OF CRAMMINC. The man who did the lattor was a crainitier- a person who laid himself out. to try aud fore- cast the probable character of the examination ))a.per» which his pupils wen-t) to face and pre- pared h-lmsek- by scudyng the littk [>ecuiiarities of the -o-xat for most exannj-nei-s had their [je^'ul arities, tastes, and ideas. An ex- aminer 'had written books perhaps and given himself away—(ksughter)—showing his particular bias. # 'l'he crammer read the books and the whole thing became a --K.n{y in which the .I he craiiwner manipulated thng so as to be able to pass pupiis through, and once they got tiarouigh tnat was ail he concerned himsuif about (hear, bear, and applause >. That was not true 1 etilHstttlon \appki.use). That was not the way gieat men were produced. Gieat statesmen, great inventors, great judges, men who as a rule occupied the foremost positions in the life of a ouuiJivy could never lie educated: upon socOi a put<;iy inechamloal system as that (hear, hear). There was one oailkif* ior wii.'oh the examination system pre-eminently fitted a person—that of the barrister, whose businuss it was to aequ.re a tre- mendous knowledge of facta it.ad tit:1 ability to store them Ln.'ms mind ready to use at a moment's notice and then, when he had dene wii.h thi'jn, to bauissh them from his memory of -r-o further use (laughter). Looking at the matter from a wider l»iix« of view, thoy must nevertheless regard tlie exajinnation system as a necessary part oi Uieir educational, machinery, but. the same time it should net be regarded a43, the be- ail and end-all of education, stid less a standard on whicih educational effkioney was to be juiiced diieti-re). THANKS. A hearty vot? of tliauks was accorded Prof. oil th;, motiom of Mr Glover, cecxxt&j by C a-no n Roberts. Equally hearty was a asnilar resolution oar. ried tfoankiitg Mr Williium.

With one iameiTiable exception, which wae- ImJOwa to tho Ccsarfe, lie believed -all the degree eions wøre cuctOO li. perfcet order, ■apd without any iuoident calling for the atten- tion of the court (lapp^iiiB^). The standard of the ex-ajniaaiionu had D->2.11 mamtaaned, and, if anything, raided (at^-ausw). Tite report of toe specaau oo of irefuiry as tD the cacecklng of the Fi-eiawh exansuiation in June was presented to the oourt. The com- mittee foirad thai laifornaation coraoerning the papers set out íbr the exaitiiaajion ieaiked1 out at Cardi.ff, and travelled to Aberystwyth alal Ban- gor. They oame to the conohiiion that the leaporBi biiiiy of the kaykage re-ited upon tlie internai cxaminier for French t3.i. Oardifi while tisere was 1£0 evider;ce to show that he acted with intea&m, the oommictee ooaildi not acquit him of negjigence in the discharge of tho re- siponenbde du.td.-œ of so grave a character aj to n Hike it umciasinable thart he shck, -L-Lll ain aot in that capacity.

The Rev. Aaron Dawes ascended, and this prvposi-mon waa agreed to. Tho rooommerrida tjons of tlie commititee were also adapted. Lord Keayon referred to certain letters whkih had appoared in tiio Wctbh newspaper^ over the segTsscure of Sir Marchant Williams, in which certain allegations were mK. mgiiinst the system of hol1din.g û-rm.ci.0¡I; T.ord KenyxDin saiid the charges had fc-cen withdrawn by the newspapers, a.nd, with all res-peei to the Court, he did not t'hui'k the allegations call-ed for an jncjTM-r). He aiied the Court to g;ive the Executive Ocanmittee power to ioie evi- dence ajid invn^stigafce if they considered a prima i.¡Qe case had been out. Profesjor Edward Edwards said he regarded that ntatter as ono of the most scaloin qucs- ticms that ever had come before the antention Jbrf the court. He thoughi that Sir Marwlxiat Williams ought to be cull*xl upon to wathd'raw the allegations made by him -in hi) letters. Speaking on bahaif oi his feiiow-examiirers in W a he said those general charge-, had been he said those general charge-, had been naace against them by a ciewar man in ffiloh a W.y that they could not place him in a court of law. 1:; was the duty of the Court to pro- tect the honour of the tnteriial examineri from these attacks, for upon their honour ami in- tegrity the whole system of the University de- pended (hoar, hear). He told the Court and ti;<3 public of Waits- that if he wj suspected of 'iLalior:i..ui-able comSuot he wouud f\I>51;;n thac moment and bog his. broad from dcor to door .hear). He was exprosring trie opinicn of Cie whole bed'/ of the examiners w hen, he said that if there was a dishonourable man amongst tbean he ought to be dk»aai.sekl (hear, hear). Lord Kenyon said lie was entirely in the hands -of ths Count, and only desired to steer a laappy moan. Profestur Tbctrapson, of Cardiff, thought Sir M'arehant WiLiams ought to be caviled uixvn Uj f)ul.'nt.i1ù:e hi &t-&te:nent;, Alderman S. N.

As a layman, he tliought thoy ought to 6, away with all internal cxainmera ("No, ruo"). Very weil, he knew what the popular f-eoling was, and the incident had made a deeper impression on tho mmds of the people than t'he letter of Sir Marchant Williams, whom they all knew (liaughter).

However, a cneque for hut) was tlie committee guaranteeing the amount. The expenses amounted to xl4 in ld', a'td t.io bank in'.erest to 13s 7d, and thus they had a deficienoy of £ 3 2s 3id. A lady had smce coiitr.ibut&d 10s, and the Pi^sidKmt f;I 13, and conaequontly the net deficiency for the year was El lIs, ilo trusted that as a result of that mc-et.ii\g thv- dabt would be completely wiped üÍÏ, and that tihey would have a good si/art- for the coming year. It was a nialter of deep re- grot to shim t'hat tife auxiliary Should! b»3 in thart position. He thought that pechap3 it wx>uld have been well to have t a r.&w secretary, but the eommi.tee would hear of that. He had bean, in office many yeaflrn.

Somo time ago lie been asked if ha eould find a book giving an acccsint of Mary Jonas aaid her Bible, a story which was known fa.r and wide. He failed to do ';0 for a time, ahhou&Tn lie was pl-oaeed to find that Mr Lewis Jonas, of the "Journal" Office, was able to say 4ihat he had known Mary Jone. and had effen spoken to her (ap- plause). At length he hud1 fomnd a copy of the book, and had a supply in hand. He hoped that those wbo road the book wgued taJce an jlt" æ in the eccietiy'a wortIc. On tihi> motion of the Rev. M.

Rayiaos (hcwio tx&pezhiten- -dccjt) tha-f i&Siverod an iz^r-ec.idn.g <»i- iihl) work of tho British end Foie^n Bial-e So- ciety. Ho rtct-ed' that the fact that the tjoci-ccy was managed by busiia&zs laymen, and that iJresy kept a tight hand on ti,-) turc. the incc-me last year was £ 4000 leae- thm the expenditure, and this wu; largely dHte to the -unexpeoted; calk m £ ide on the scesoby foa- Bibles from lands wlsece there was en av-raienr He stated that. no matter what Chi-istian sociafcy abroad asked for copies c'f the Bible they were supplied, end he wus pbli2"8d to my that ihere had lately gone to India, a large supply for tho Caiviriistic Methodist Mission (applausa). All sections worked together, and Uu missionaries of one socicty by their traneia- tit os helped others io roceive the word of God. But it was surprising that nearly the whole of the traaislations were done by men moved with the spirit of God. They had no instance of traders, merely for the sake of trade, doing the work. Last year the circulation exceeded that of the previous year by 600,000 copies, and he urged that the work of the society was of international benefit, and illustrated the point by giving an account of the various nationalities engaged in the work. Last year alone six new languages were dealt with. The Bible's silent influence we," exorcised everywhere. Dealing with tl* ques- tion of the decreasing support in some, places for the Society, the speaker asked that they should take a lesson from Cornwall, where the two iadv leaders of a Bible Class, by their influence, had raised the attendance at meetings from about 40 pcron.; to upwards of 2000, and from that OIl place the influence had circulated through- out Cornwall with excellent results. The. Rev. Owen Owen proposed the resolu- tion ci support for the Society, and the Rev. Edward Jones seconded, the latter remarking that if Mr Raynes would promise to attend the next meeting he would guarantee a crowded hall, as they had never listened to such an inepining and interesting adDre. The seconder also urged that the report of the Society should be more generally read. The resolution having been carried, the Rev. H. A. Raynes presented Mr Rowlands with a Biblo from the Parent Society in appreciation of his many years' faithful and devoted Borvioo, He said in making the presentation: "We ex. press the hope that as your remaining years grow fewer, asd the time gels nearer wlien rest and r v ard awaits you that the hope which this book sets forth may grow brighter and brighter. Mr Rowlands with great emotion received tlie Bible, and said it was the proudest moment of his life. He would look upon that Bible as his greatest treasure, ard any little service lie had rendered tho Society was artiv-y rewarded. He trusted that he would hlvc renewed strength to work for the Society. A collection was made on behalf of the funds of the Society.

ABERGELE.
ABERGELE. THE SMITHFIELD. —Mr C. P. Sheffield had a good ali round suppiy of stock in the yard on Monday, but the demand was not very good. The quality of beef on olfec was hardly up to the usual tandard shown here. No doubt the approach of the Christmas markets induces the farmers to keep their best stock just now. Forty- five dairy cows and store cattle v/ere sold, but the trade was dragging There was a full mar- ket of sheep, but again the quality was not as good as usual, with the result that the inferior qualities met a slow demand. Good Wolsh wethers were well sought after. Fat cattle made up to £19 7s 6d; dairy cows, £17 10s; store cattle, E10 15s; fat calves, 57s 6d; sheep, 35s 9d; and lambs, 26s. The popular Christmas show and saletakea place on Monday, December 12th, when the auc- tioneer offers 225 in prizes, including three valu- able cups, which are now on view at the Harp Hotel. Entries of stock competing for pi-iwe should be made not later than Monday, Decem- ber 5th.. I
