The Common school Commissioner
throughout the State have received circu.
lar from the Superintendent Of Public In
struction urging the necessity Of impress
ing upon the Sheriff. the importance Of
having enough money in the School Treas
ury to promptly pay the teachers in Jsnu-
sry.
The report Of the Superintendent Of Ed
ucation has appeared, and the Courier Jour
nal publishes the following interesting
statistical information from the report;
Formerly the enumeration Of children
Of pupil age was very loosely made, but
this year diligent effort has been made to
report every child entitled to the benefits
Of the school fund, and the result shows an
increase In the school census Of over nine
thousand five hundred pupil children. The
aggregate Of white pupil children is 49,
100, and that Of colored children 37,4l4.-
The superintendent complais., however,
that there Is gross neglect on the part OF
trustees and teachers in failing to furnish
full and accurate statistical information Of
the actual condition Of the schools. The
information required especially to furnish
the public with information is mainly &C
curate knowledge Of how many children
attend the schools the amount OF local sup
port accorded, and the character Of studies
pursued. Ample requirement is made by
the law for the preparation and forwarding
Of such statements, but the persons eharg-
ed with the duty seem to have neglected it.
The law directs the school commissioners
to impose fine of twenty dollars on any
teacher who fails in this duty, and there is
reason why it should not be enforced. From
an abstract Of the commissioner reports,
which the superintendent ssate' are, from
the above mentioned causes, fas from being
absolutely accurate, it appears that during
the past year the highest number Of chill
dren attending school was l9l ,ll2 the
lowest number 5S,O62, and the average
number 1l5,603. The progress by decades
Of average attendance during the past thir'
ty years Is thus shown: In 1874, 1924; in
1854, 20, 40; in 1864, S0,9s6; in 1874, il5,-
6O3. From a partial report it appears that

ly together for more than sixty years. DR..
Joel Owsley died FIVE years ago. lacking
only few days Of reaching the advanced

with pride and affection, as her birthplace
and the home OF her childhood, She lived
a useful life, and died a Christians death.
