SPECIMEN PAPERS FOR BOTH ORDINARY AND MOTOR
EXAMINATION.
The candidate will be expected to show that he is capable of
making a dimensioned drawing of a part of the machinery, such that
if the drawing were sent home from a foreign port the part in ques-
tion could, if necessary, be accurately reproduced and the new article
fitted in place on board ship on her return without alteration.
SECOND CLASS.
