Principles of Selection
To thi EnnoR or Thk Expreis;
Sir,—The appointment of an
apprentice to the city engineer has
awakened speculation as to how
and on what hues such appoint
ments ate made. In England,
generally speaking, the heads ol
the engineering, electrical, and
law departments regard these appointments as a perquisite of their
office. This method has been
strongly criticized as barring out
from these positions intelligent
youths, who may he possessing
superior qualifications, because
their parents are unable to pay the
five hundred or thousand dollars
demanded as premium.
It is contended that such appointments should be in the hands
of the council, that they ihould be
the reward ol the diligent in the
schools of the district, thereby
emulating the amliitious and al-
lording an incentive to the acquirement of learning.
The council here have such appointment! in their hands, but
whether the results are better is
certainly an open question, ll
such appointments were made alter
examination of the educational fit-
Del* and intellectual capacity of
the Candidates, there would then
be no opening for suggestions that
such appointments are made not
on merit, but on what may bc humorously termed "The principle ol
natural affection." Youri, etc.,

Free School Books
The undertaking ol the provincial government to supply text
books free to pupils at the public
schools, entails a very large
amount of work and the creation
of a considerable amount of machinery. At the present time, the
corridors and passages under the
south block of the parliament
buildings are packed with boxes,
which contain forty-five tons of
books, and a small army of men
are hard at work sorting and ar
ranging these in pteparation (or
shipment throughout the province.
As a beginning, the government
intends to supply readers, arithmetics, copybooks and scribblers.
The trustees and teachers ol the
respective schools must ptepare a
riipiisitiun, showing the number ol
eaih kimlol hooks requiied. These
requisitions must be forwarded at
the beginning of lhe ter in and only
one requisition per term is allowed.
These n (positions are to call ,oi
only such ipi .unities as may reasonably he expected to be sulhi I-
ent lor the pupils lor the term for
which they ate intended, lt is es
11 mn ted that one exercise book and
two scribblers sliould, on the
average, be suhicienl lur each pupil of the junior grade. The trustees musl sign kii agreement to
provide suitable accommodation
for the books, and also um'e t ike
that the teachers will see thul the
books aie kept in proper condition. A report iiii the condition
of the bi'oks is to be Milunilted
once a war. l'mvision is nia-.lt-
(or the distinction ol unsanitary
books, foi which purpose medical
officers will call at the schools Irom
lime to lime and examine the
books. With each lirst requisition
the department sends along a large
Union J iik. Ibis is a splendid
flag, measuring lour aud one-half
leet by nine, eminently suited to
fly over the institutions iu which
the vuiill ul the pmvince is being
educated.
One hundred and fifty requisitions have already been received
by the education department. The
Nurlh Vancouver requisition was
forwarded some time ago.
