Regarding enrolments in Scinde House at the Napier Boys' High School, the principal, Mr W. T. Foster states. — "This year*s number also shows an inorease, We expected to reach the limit of our accommodation, namely 50, but one new pupil and two of last year's at the last moment failed to arrive. Our numbers are therefore 47 with one other to come after Easter. This increase is quite pleasing, and should ensure the success of the hostel.
