The Next Election For The Girls' School.
THE NEXT ELECTION FOR THE GIRLS' SCHOOL .
Our readers will have perused with much satisfaction the report of the proceedings of the House Committee of the Girls' School , on the 24 th Dec , and the recommendation to be
submitted to the quarterly General Court summoned for January the 10 th . By that report it appears , there are now 29 candidates for the April election , though of these
one case is to be withdrawn on account of previous canvassing . While we quite agree with the House Committee in principle , and feel that those injudicious friends may receive a proper
reprimand from the Committee , yet we are inclined to think and to hope , that , the child should not be made to suffer for the faults of others . Perhaps having called attention to the subject
publicly , and having openly condemned such hasty and irregular proceedings , the quarterly General Court may adopt the entire list of 29 candidates .
At first , according to the present arrangements , only five vacancies were declared , but such a number , with the existing amount of
accommodation and the funded capital of the school , was clearly insufficient either to meet the wants of the brotherhood , or to do justice to that excellent Institution itself .
Accordingly , a resolution was unanimously carried , that , ten additional children should be elected in April next , making in all , fifteen , and such resolution is to be submitted to the
Quarterly General Court on the 10 th of January . Of its success we need , let us hope , have no doubt , as its seasonableness is unquestionable , and its propriety we may add , self-evident .
The election of fifteen candidates , will still leave fourteen to come up again at the October election , and between this and October , it is , we fear , fully certain that , several more candidates

will inevitably appear . The Girls' School stands in a very different position to the Boys' School , having , happily , such a large funded capital intact , and , therefore our English Craft fairly
expects , that , the House Committee will not , by any mistaken notions of economy , or an adherance to former calculations of numbers and vacancies , fail to meet the pressing demands of
our largely increasing brotherhood . It seems to us , that , before long , the House Committee of the Girls' school will have to consider the propriety , of still further permanently enlarging the school
accommodation , as there is no reason , why , with the income belonging to the school from invested capital , and from the annual donations of our ever ready Craft , three fourths of tho candidates .
annually , should not at least be elected into the ' Institution . The Girls' School is in itself an educational seminary , of which as an Order we may well
be proud , and which for its efficiency , and thorough practical character , its adaptation to the requirements of our fraternity , and the position and training of the children themselves , is
we sincerely believe without an equal in this country . It has always commended itself to the warm feelings of Freemasons , and we feel sure
it will always do so , as long as it is conducted on the same wise , consistent , and large-hearted principles , which have marked its past work and administration .
In these days however , of active educational efforts , and earnest philanthropic interest , would it not be well ( we say it in ell deference to the very excellent
actual house committee ) , to have a fresh election of members of the same every year ? That is to say , could not a proportion retire annually for one year , so as to allow fresh metropolitan and
provincial members of the Order to participate in the good work ? We throw this out merely as a friendly hint , as we live in an age of great reform , but we
should not be doing justice to our own feelings , or to those of the Craft at large , if we did not express clearly to-day , how much we feel the success of the Girls' School is owing to the
ability and zeal of its most efficient head Governess , and to the active and continuous interest and successful supervision of the House Committee . It has a most active and able
Secretary in the person of our well-known Bro . R . W . Little , and we can only hope for his assiduous efforts and important duties , all of prosperity and success ,
