 Ri:i'(^RT ()x\ THE EXAMINATION OF THE 
 
 ALL HALLOWS MISSION SCHOOL 
 
 YALE, HRITISH COLUMBIA, MID- 
 
 SL'MMEH 1890. 
 
 I have great i)U'ii.sun! in reijorting tho result 
 of the exatniiiattoti, which at the request of his 
 Lonlship tlie Bishop of New VVestuiiiister, 1 
 have just liel'l at the School. The exainiiia- 
 tion of tho senior pupils was largely cudducted 
 liy moans of papers, the tiuestions of which 
 were as a rule well answered. Tho children's 
 knowledge of the various selected portions of 
 the Scripture.s — and as to this I speak of all 
 the departments of the School — was specially 
 good save in some few instances, chieny those 
 of Indian children who had very recently en- 
 tere<l the Institution and were therefore yet in 
 the earliest stage of instruction. I was also 
 struck hy tiie generally intelligent reai ling of 
 the pupils, and especially of the elder ones, wl».) 
 in this respect compare favourably with ujost 
 of the British Columlnan Ixtys of like age, 
 whom I have heard rendering passages of tne 
 i>il)le in the Sunday Scho 1. Dictation, too, 
 w as (US a rule well duu<j ; and fair proficiency 
 shown in Map }Jrawing, Elementary History, 
 Grannnar, ( ieogr.ip''y, and Arith.metic. Many 
 of the children's C nipositi ns wro also fairly 
 good, regard 1 ein<' Ivxl to the fact that to most 
 of tile pupils English is more or less of a for- 
 eign tongue. The children ^f All Hallows also 
 sing very swtx-tly in ch.jrus, a fact the more 
 noticable as tliis is n he.ilt)>ful, recreative, and 
 instructive element, ah'i()st wholly neglected in 
 the state estahlished day schools of British 
 Columbia. 
 
 I nmst further make an especial liliision to 
 th • accurate and evidently reverent km^wledge 
 of the Scriptures, possessed by one of the older 
 girls named Mali, an Indian ^ntcsitof/. Tlie 
 younger children whom I examined stood the 
 test .so well, having regard to their age and 
 race, tUot I exitect .some of them even to pass 
 l)eyond the present standard, good though it 
 generally is, of tlx^ older pupils. The children 
 are I untlerstauil t.ught simple needlework 
 well, a sul ject however on which I ventured 
 not to adjudicate. They al.so assLst in the do- 
 mestic arri'-n<'emcnts of the house, which is a 
 m xlel (if or ler, cleanliness and neatness, and of 
 tiieir culinary attainments, the hospitality of 
 estubli.shmeiit tendered me during my visit of 
 inspection bore very satisfactory pi-oof. 
 
 '1 he tone of the Schtol .seems excellent and 
 the children have evidently a loving regard for 
 their pi(»tectres.sos and teachers. 
 
 I had, as I lay statt , during my visit a gcKnl 
 ojiportunity of noting the general n^spect of this 
 Institution maintaine<l Ity the Sisters of 
 All Hallows, Ditehingham. The School- 
 hou.se, situated in a lovely valley on the 
 
 Fraser River, is not only delightful as to ex- 
 ternals but within provided with all things 
 necessary t > the health and comfort of the pu- 
 pil-protegees. 
 
 Excellent wt>i"k is acconlinglj' b ing ilone 
 (on a sc .le, unf H'tun.itely limited by tl-.e t< o 
 slender resources .f t'-e Institution) tors ' lo of 
 the many girl children of a most inter('sti".g 
 native .;\ce. The younger Indians of i British 
 ColumI ia aro, as 1 conceive, capable by virtue 
 of a n.iti'.rJly docile intelligence •! bec<i ing 
 under CWristi.m con<litions a very useful, per- 
 manent el"' lout of the working coiouunity of

 .School is about to 'xi enl..r/'>'., so ra tc* accom- 
 modate m uv; Intli'iu cbil'lren and a fair niu'i- 
 ber of whit \ upils. 
 
 There i& ample scope for sueh extended work, 
 not only in I'ule, but elsewhere in British Co- 
 lumbia, did the ladly limited educational re- 
 sources of the diocese of New Westminster per- 
 mit it. This extension is tho more desirable on 
 tho part >.f the Anglican Church in Britifih Co- 
 lumI ia whieh ohould not lag bohind in any 
 good wo k — inasmuch as tho Konian Catholics 
 of tin; rroviiice, to their credit be it said — have 
 long lieen and still are largely rendering reli- 
 gious edu>'ation.il aid to the Indians of British 
 Cohim' ia. 
 
 I WHS not-surprised to find among the chil- 
 dren (if the school, several intelligent pupils 
 of white |.(irentiige. Their natural guardians 
 rightly think it !•■ tt r to send them to a school 
 like this, in wliich their duty to God and man 
 is taught from th<! highest of all motives, than 
 to trust tiiem to the )Mir> ly secular training of a 
 public day-si h'tol in iii rovii'oe, the Legislature 
 of whi<''i has <leeided, not only to exclude from 
 daily ediic 'tion all C'hristian t<!aching, but has 
 also for'ii'lden, during school hours, the simple 
 reading of tho scriptures. It is therefore the 
 more satisfaitory to note, that the proposed ex- 
 tension of the school will include the establish- 
 ment of a ilepartmetit for white girl pupils. 
 
 I need -ay no more in conclusion than again 
 express tiie pleasure and satisfaction afforded 
 by niy brii'f visit to All Hallows School, and 
 wish it a long and increasingly useful future 
 career.
