Report of Education Committee, 1890.

worst answers were to questions 1 and 3 ; of the answers to the 
last-named question only five obtained over half-marks." 
8. The Examiner in Book-keeping (Mr. C. Gay Roberts) reports 
that the papers do not call for any detailed comment, and that the 
work as a whole was fairly done. 
9. The Examiner in Mensuration and Land Surveying (the Rev. 
Prof. Twisden) reports that "the constructions asked for in some of 
the questions were on the whole made neatly and accurately, though 
of course some candidates did better than others. The right 
answer was in no case obtained to question 3 [see page 427], though 
three or four of the candidates took it in hand the right way. 
Correct results were often found in answer to questions 4 and 5, 
and the data in question 6 were in many cases arranged rightly, and 
the section correctly drawn. In question 8 the calculation was not 
once made, and the construction in most cases was wrong. Ques- 
tions relating to principles (such as question 7 and the latter parts 
of questions 4 and 5) seldom brought out good answers. This point 
might be stated in another way, viz. that the work is too much done 
by rules, the reasons for which are not understood." 
10. The Examiner in Agricultural Engineering (Dr. Wm. Ander- 
son) states that the examination was upon the whole satisfactory, and 
that the oral work was better than the written. He again draws 
particular attention to the very bad sketching, and expresses his sur- 
prise that more pains are not taken to teach young men how to draw. 
He remarks that most Board School boys would have made better 
sketches than those submitted to him ; and he hopes that greater 
encouragement will be given to drawing, especially making sketches 
with dimensions marked thereon.
