Gcography.—The teaching of geography was, as far as it went, fairly
satisfactory but it seems to me as if the organisation of the teaching, the
use of comparative and causal methods and the correlation between geography
and history had been neglected in the past. The Principal is fully alive to
this difficulty and is domg his best to improve matters. I would suggest,
however, that in the two or three top classes, at any rate, definite test papers
should be given as often as possible, certainly not Jess than once a week, in
order to train the boys in the method of answering questions. The contour
map of India in the college grounds struck me as being very valuable.
History.—The Ilistory teaching interested me. No notes were given and
yery little written work was done. At the same time the teacher continually
revised what he had done and the result was better than [ expected. I
still think, however, that in the higher classes at any rate more written work
should be done and more map work, and in the Jowest class more use should
he made of pictures.
Nature study.—I have mentioned below the question of the discontinuance
of the teaching of nature study. If it is kept up I think it should, even in
class V, he largely ¢hrough the medium of the vernacular and as much as
ossible should be done to encourage boys to make their own observations.
Many seem to find the subject diflicnlt and uninteresting.
General knowledge.—A regular scheme of general knowledge has been
worked out by the Principal and I shall be very interested to see the results,
Continual supervision of the teaching of this subject is necessary as it is apt
to he valuless unless teachers themselves nre really keen. What work T saw
being done was on the right lines. Boys, T think, should be encouraged and
made to ask their own questions, "
Cricket, football, hockey, tennis and physical training are compulsory
for all boys. In addition there are squash courts one of which has recently
been provided with electric light for usc after dark, a swimming bath, a
miniature rifle range and other physical exercises under the English staff, the
Superintendent of Games, a Daffadar and two physical training instructors,
Two polo teams can be put on the field; thore is also a college squadron of
light horse. ;
There is a Debating Society holding fortnightly debates and lantern
lectures are given on subjects of general interest in alternate weeks by
