DOMESTIC SCIENCE.
SCHOOL MISTRESS TAKEN TO TASK. By Telegraph—Press Association. Duneilin, Monday. Miss Merchant's criticism of the attainments of primary school pupils proceeding to the Girls' High School haa drawn a trenchant reply from Inspector Richardson, who points out that with' similarly equipped pupils other secrad-. ary .schools in Otago maintained, if not increased, their .reputations for efficiency. If the day technical classes and private schools girls have successfully, competed against the Girls' High School the management of the teaching of the, latter institution is responsible. Miss Marthant's right to assert that the*, teachers are not properly trained ,is' challenged on the ground that her experience is confined to the staff of the Girto* High School, the majority of whom are untrained and chosen on university and social qualifications. With regard to domestic training it is asserted' that the Girls? High School is the only public institution in Dujiedin and suburbs where this important branch is not taught.
