ARMY EXAMINATIONS.

THE Editor continues to prepare Pupils for these Examinations privately, in class, and by post; and he has hitherto met with unvarying success.

POSTAL PUPILS.

The system of Correspondence is an excellent one for those who cannot make it convenient to read orally. It is conducted by means of Notes and Test Papers; and any Pupil who follows out the system faithfully cannot fail to make good progress.

GEOGRAPHY MADE EASY.

This book is now nearly ready; and we trust it will be issued to the public in about a month's time. It is framed on an entirely new principle, and is intended to make this difficult subject easy, by putting things in a concise, clear, and-where possible-a tabulated form.

LAST MONTH'S RESIDENT TUITION.

Candidates who feel at all "shaky" in their subjects are strongly advised to reside for the month immediately preceding their examination. By this means they will get the benefit of the Special Evening Classes which are held during this last month, for the purpose of strengthening any weak points.

All communications should be addressed to JOHN GIBSON, M.A., Bromley, Kent.
