The pay and prospects of the Indian staff have been considerably im-
proved by bringing them all on to a time-scale.
As suggested in last year’s inspection report a teacher has been sent to
the Spence Training College, Jubbulpore,* for a nine months’ B, T.
course in English and History. The Drawing Master was also sent to
the same college for a two months’ refresher course while one of the teachers
was sent to the Daly College, Indore, in connexion with the nature study
syllabus. This attempt to provide a course of training for members. of the
staff is decidedly a move in the: right direction and should. be persevered
with. It is, as.a rule, desirable to send men before they reach the. age of
thirty.
Buildings and Furntture:—The buildings are in excellent order and
accommodation is more than sufficient: for the present needs. of the college.
Two new pattern Aqua latrines, which were thuch needed for the boarding
hoises, have been constructed during the year at a.cost:of Rs. 3,600.
The Managing Committee have decided to make improvements in the’
electric supply of the college by changing it from D. C. to A. C. at a cost
of about Rs. 24,000. It is anticipated that the improvements, when effected,
will result in a saving of about Rs. 2,500 a year on the electric light bill, which
now comes to Rs. 9,000 a year.
A reference was made in the last year’s inspection report to a scheme
for improving the water supply. The Managing Committee have decided
to dig a 20 feet diameter well at once as an experimental measure.
The supply of furniture and apparatus is quite adequate. It is hoped
that in the near future it will be possible to provide a gas plant for the
laboratory.
Eaaminations.—Three candidates appeared for the Diploma Examina-
tion and all passed. The results of the college have been consistently good
as only two have failed in the last twelve years.
Certain bays in class If are now appearing for the Patna University
Matriculation examination.
