While t h i s e n t e r p r i s e was begun by T h e T i m e s ,it was with a view to e m p h a sizing t h e value of present-day news for t h e s t u d e n t of the past. T h o u g h e x a m i n a t i o n s in t h i s contest have been held in only a few institutions this was due to the desire to have practical proof of the plan b e f o r e giving it g,e.it r a l a p plication.
