Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chinese Recorder and Missionary Journal, Vol. 39: January, 1908 In the place of the old literary Chancellors, we now see the educational inspectors coming into prominence. Their duties, as may be surmised from what we have said above, are largely those of oversight and the gathering of information. They are also expected to encourage and stimulate the gentry of the various districts throughout the empire to found new schools and to give more liberally for their support. Naturally some of these men are the old literary Chancellors under a new name. However well they were fitted to preside at the examinations under the former regime it can easily be seen that they are not the men to help in the introduction of an education with which they themselves are not acquainted.
