There need be no advertisement of the examination, further than by principals to all pupils eligible to pass the same. 3. The term of each scholarship will be for the two school years next after the examination upon which it was awarded, and vacancies will not be filled, except that if any person to whom a scholarship has been awarded shall be unable to accept the same, then the next highest in the competition may be awarded the scholarship. 4.
