[...] The candidates for the first or lowest grade included not only some pupils of the elementary department of the Sir J. J. School of Art and of the Blinj and Surat Schools of Art but also the pupils of the drawing classes which have been established in colleges and high schools. [...] The Government in reviewing the work of the year note that the present system as it stands has the confidence of the people and that under it education is steadily spreading but they look forward to some changes as the probable result of the labours of the Education. [...] The readers of this Journal will we are sure take much interest in the addresses of the Vice-Chancellor of the Unversity on the one occasion and on the other of the Chief Justice Sir Richard Garth who dwelt in the most congratlatory terms on the persevering work of the two lady students and on the impetus to female education which their welmerited success would cause.
