. . . . If the Education Board will only give this matter their serious consideration, and get the teachers in the different schools to cooperate with it in carrying out a similar experiment to that so successfully initiated in the schools in Ghent, we see no obstacles in the way of the Savings Bank in the schools of New Zealand becoming not only an established fact, but one of our noblest institutions. The scheme has our hearty approval.
