Old Civil Service Examination.
Lady Imruthy Nov 111 in ono of her
books gave an nmtiHlng example of the
t vie uf examination for posts in tbe
British JvlI service which prevailed
iMifurv tbe advent of the competitive
system. The young candidate was unh-
ered Into the room of the old chief
clerk of the department and this or-
dcul followed:
"Sit down air" roared a vol'-e of
thunder. Tlmn after a painful pnuite:
".Now. sir. attention I shall examine
you In arithmetic."
"Shall I nvt have pen and paper?"
"No. air" thundered out the tyrant
voice. "Attention! now much are
two nd two?"
I'urnlyzed by the voice and sudden
question the youth stared and then
gusped out quite seriously:
"Four sir."
"Quit right air" roared out the ex-
aminer stopping bltn on the back
"You'll do sir."
Hut the question surely should bare
been. "How many blue beana make
