The fact that all third year students successfully ‘passed their examinations was i-u itself-a tribute to the College as well a,‘ tothe successful students.

"There is much significance in the fiact that the number of students in attendance is yearly in. creasing. the past year with an enrolment oi [347 being the largest in the history of the’ institution. Thlg means that more and more oi our young people are yearly turn- ing their attention to plofeslsional careers. more and more yearly abandoning the farm, as the great majority of the students are from the country schools. The increas- ing attendance at Prince oi Wales lgalso a tribute to the schools, urban and rural. irom which they have come.

NOTES IV THE. WAY

As to statutory holidays, the am. of 1919-20 provides as follows: The following days and-none oth-

er shall be observed in and by the Civil Service:

(i) Sundays; (2) New Year's Day; (3) Good Friday; 4) Easter Monday; (5) Victoria ‘Day (6) The birthday of the reigning Sovereign, or the day fixed by proclamation by the Governor in Council for the cel- ebration thereof; (7) Dominion iDay (8- LahorlDay; (9) Christmas DU; (10) Any day appointed" -by proola~ mstion of lths Governor in Council to be observed as a general hast or thanksgiving or as a holiday.

' The point waa rIised by Senator Bradbury tihat the Government have been declaring iour or five days yearly to be holidays besides those provided for in the statute as above quoted and that this has ibeen done illegally. Senator Bradbury pointed cuiii thavh whh a Civil Ser- vice almost 40,000 in number the cost oi each oi these illegal holl- days is between $200,000 slid $300,- 000 or a million dollars in the year. On the day in question (March 5) the Senate held a. siiiliiing but obs House oi Commons adjourned and the department officials took a holl- day, Hon. Mr. lftandurand, the Go- vernment leader in the Senate,
