Royal Masonic Institution For Girls.

many of the company present had the pleasure of attending at the School last Mondiy when the prizes were distributed ; he was there himself , and renewed his acquaintance with the School ; and although he held thc position of Treasurer of the Institution , and as such , j was one of the Committee , he was not able to be often there ; and he , therefore , could not be excused of self- ' audation when he said he never faw an Instiltition more

carefully , or beautifully guarded than the Girls' School was by the number of excellent men who worked on the House Committee . The result was that it was one of the best Schools in the country . Anyone could see how well the children and all connected wilh the School were watched over when

they looked at their smiling and happy faces , and it was a pleasure to him to find so many of the old pupils and old friends walking arm-in-arm with ths children , going down to see them , renewing their relations with the School . ' The education of the child ren was not neglected ; this was shown by the exceedingly satisfactory result testified to by the examiners , not examiners appointed by the Institution in order to make a very good statement to the patrons , but appointed by the University of Cambridge , the

College of Preceptors , and other bodies , and they showed it was incontestable that the work done by the School was a real work . Recently , there had been Civil Service classes there . A great number of girls had passed successfully , some of them with honours , and it must be a matter of exceeding p leasure that in the recent Civil Service class one of the girls passed seventh , and this year one girl only just 16—and a very small ifi she was—passed second out of 357 and obtained one of the 15 appointments in the Civil Service . That was what thev wanted to get in all the girls that

passed through the Institution , and that was gratifying to the Committee and also to the excellent people who were in charge—Miss Buck , the Matron , Miss Redgrave , the Head Governess , and others—who took extreme care with the children . It was a great pleasure that these ladies were old pupils of the School and were carrying out the benefit and instruction they received in former days . He did not want to go into details , but the fixed income of the Institution was not equal to its requirements ; it , therefore , looked to the brethren to make up the required sum now or a little later ; he looked with confidence to Masons , brethren who had brought the School up to its

present state of eminence and usefulness , to continue to support it , although their efforts this year were principally directed to the Centenary of the Boys' School . Bro . F . R . \ V . HEDGES , Secretary , then announced the following
