Many of the students may be seen on occasion of the various visits taking diligent notes, which will serve in some measure to prevent complete intellectual indigestion. It is rather significant that sometimes {e.g. in 1895) when prizes are offered for the best sets of notes, the examiners find no one worthy to receive the second prize. We would venture to suggest the abridgment of the programme by cutting out visits to printers and bookbinders, whose work can be seen in any large town by the students individually.
