From time to time the system does lead to happy results, as in the recent appointment of Mr. Gow as Postmaster of Boston.

...James Gow, for 18 years headmaster of Westminster School, England, died in February. He brought Westminster to its full enrollment of 300, partly by reason of the erection ef extensive laboratories in connection with the school. Dr. Gow created a sensation in 1919 by remaining covered in the royal presence during a visit to the school by the King and Queen and the Prince of Wales on the occasion of the annual Pancake Greeze. The explanation current was that Dr. Busby, headmaster in the day of Charles II, retained his hat in the presence of that monarch upon a plea...
