PREFACE. 
 
 11 
 
 Any person who desires to study law with a view to prac- 
 tising- in this country, should first apply to the Benchers of the 
 Law Society for leave to become an Articled Clerk. This leave 
 is granted upon proof of the candidate's competency to enter 
 upon such study. The application should be made in the man- 
 ner provided by Rule 44. As soon as the candidate obtains his 
 certificate (Form III, p. 32.) he should prepare his Articles, 
 (Form IV, p. 32.) and have them executed and filed. He should 
 thereupon, without delay, apply for admission to the Law Soci- 
 ety as a Student-at-Law (Rules 48 to 50.) and be entered on 
 the Roll, and receive his certificate (Form IX, p. 35.) Service 
 in a Solicitor's office qualifies both for admission as a Solicitor 
 of the Supreme Court, and for call to the Bar. Mere attendance 
 in a Barrister's Chambers does not qualify for call, for the Degree 
 of Barrister is conferred only upon Solicitors of at least one 
 year's standing". The distinction between Articled Clerks and 
 Students-at-Law is little recognised in the Profession, for the 
 reason that each person serves in both capacities at the one 
 time. It is, however, well to remember that one who has been 
 permitted to enter under Articles, and is pursuing the course 
 necessary to qualify him for admission as a Solicitor is desig- 
 nated an Articled Clerk; while on the other hand, one who has 
 been admitted into the Society, and is pursuing the course 
 necessary to qualify him for call to the Bar, is designated a 
 Student-at-Law. 
 
 After the candidate has entered under Articles and become 
 a Student-at-Law, three examinations await him, viz. : 1. The 
 Intermediate Examination. 2. The Examination for Certificate 
 of Fitness, and 3. The Examination for Call to the Bar. A 
 careful perusal of the Rules and the Curriculum of Study will 
 enable the student to discover the various steps to be taken 
 in order that he may present himself in due course at these 
 examinations, as well as the standard of knowledge demanded 
 thereat. After due service and a strict observance of the Rules, 
 the successful candidate will be enrolled as a Solicitor of the Su- 
 preme Court, and receive a Certificate from the Chief Clerk of the 
 Supreme Court accordingl)\ After the lapse of another year, 
 and a compliance with the Rules made in that behalf, he will 
 be called to the Bar, and receive his Diploma from the Treasurer 
 of the Law Society, and be enrolled as a Barrister-at-Law.
