We see by the report Of the condition
OF the Cairo Public School for Decem.
Der that the number Of scholars enrolled
is 575; average daily attendance, 400;
number OF cases Of tardiness during the
month only %. When we reflect that
there were 10, $50 chances for pupils TO be
tardy during the month, aud that cold
weather, wind, SHOWS, mud and rain in
terposed, 1t Is almost surprising that the
attendance was so nearly perfect. To
put the matter in a different light, We
have $50 Instances OF punctuality In this
respect against enc OF tardiness. In five
OF the rooms, aggregating 220 pupils,
there was not single belated pupil du-
ring the month. In one other room,
numbering 70 pupils, there was one; In
another room, where there are 50 little
ones, there were 4; in another room,
numbering AZ pupils, there were 9, and
In the primary department, where the
little six.year olds congregate 10 the
number Of so, there were 10.
There was not, during the month, a
single case OF corporal punishment-no
application Of the rod; NO thwseks from
the ferule; no slsps, boxing, shaking,
hair-pdlling; nothing that savored Of
corporal punishment. This 10 Q most
gratifying record, and we take pride in
presenting II to our readers.
