As s preparatory school for the University, Prince of Wsles Collegd has always taken I high standing. The present splendidly equipped building wns erected about two years ago on the site of the old College destroyed by fire. Its erec- tion made possible the addition of a fourth year students course, thus bringing the institution up to standard Junior Gouge require- ments, Some 400 students from Lil parts oi the Province were in st- tendancc at the College last year.

Four years ago the public school at Bummer-side was equipped and staffed to carry on the work of Senior High school to the end of Grade X11, when its students pus directly to the University.

As Prince Edward Island is an agricultural Province every sifort is made to encourage the study of agriculture both in the schools and college. In the elemenwry grades nature study is an important part of the curriculum and develops into agriculture in the higher grades.
