1. . .

HE most distressing feature of the present world crisis is undoubtedly the great increase m unemployment. Until a few years ago New Zealand had been fortunate in escaping to a large extent this evil, but now we are experiencing the same trouble as other countries. TL e unemployment problem affects schools and schoolboys in particular in that those boys who in normal times are assured of positions now find their futures far from secure, and many find it impossible to obtain employment. As the importance of the situation was realised committees were set up to investigate the problem, and as a result of their searching inquiries they have been able to show that the seriousness of the matter has been very much exaggerated. There is more than a possibility, however, that in the event of a further prolongation of the present difficulties the question of unemployed youth will become grave, and it is obviously necessary for every boy and every parent to consider the position seriously and to take stock of the future.

NOTES

The Ven. Archdeacon G. H. Gavin and the Rev. Whitby .Tames preached at School Service during the term. Accordino· to the custom that has prevailed for ' . b sever·al years past, Mr. Renaud, the orgamst of St. Mary s Church, gave an organ recital during the last few clays of the School year. We wish to thank him for his programme and for his willingness to g-i-ve us an opportunity of hearing good mu.·ic. We regret the departure of many boys, especially those who have given such help in the choir, and wish them every success, hoping- the;v will still maintain their lo~' fllt~- to God and His church.

AGRICULT URE NOTES "At the hea.d of a.ll Sciences and Arts, at the head of civilization and progress, stands-not militarism, the science that kills, not commerce, the art that accumulates wealth-but agriculture, the mother of all industry and the maintainer of human life." -Garfield.

This year marks the opening of a new era in our course in Agr·ieulture. rr)lc. scope of the work has been greatly extended and provision in specialized work is now marle for third ancl fomth year boys taking the subject. At the outset it may be stated that the course in Agriculture is designed for boys who are definitely going to become farmers, and is not intended for those whose object it is to take a degree in Agriculture with a :riew t'o becomina later specialists in some branch of agriCultural scien;~. F01: these it is essential that specialisation should be defened until they have acquired proficiency in those subjects which are usually taken in the ordinary secondarv school course and which are necessary for the Suitable courses of University Entrance Examination. are provided. students degree cultural work for agri The School farm, which has made possible much of the recent development, includes an area of 60 acres. The soil is typical of much of the farm land of North Taranaki and is eminently fmitable for demonstrating what can be done on such co untry by scientific methods of farming.

HOUSE NOTES

SCHOOL HOUSE. (A. W. Holland.) Another term successfully completed sees School House well to the fore in all School activities. In House cricket our senior team has certainly not done wonders, but the excellent sporting· spirit which prevails makes every match a. g·ame. 'l'he junior team is leading and should, by careful playing, have a good chance of winning the competition. One of our boys has been selected to represent Town in the Town v. Country match and subsequently North TRranaki, wJJile three hRvc gained first XI. caps. At football we have four first XV. caps to our credit, nncl twelve of our boys were chosen to r epr esent the BoRrclen; in the annuRl Day Boys v. Boarders match, won this year by the Boarders, 23-17. Tn boxing, one of our members was runner-up in the senior championsJ1ip, while another was successful in winning his weight. 'l'o all these boys who have participated with Ruch succeRs in the var·ious School Rctiviti cs we extend our heR rti est congratulations. CARRINGTON HOUSE. (H. Whittington.) During the year the House has been well represented both on the field of sport and in the classroom. We wish to congr atulate those who obtained scholastic successes.

vV e also take this opportunity to congratulate four of our members who gained their football caps and those who helped the Boarders to secure their victory over the Day Boys. 'rhe House XI. won its first · cricket match of the season by. an easy victory over School House. Many of our members took conspicuous partR in the School athletic sports and in the concert, which this year was a great success.
