The statistics furnished by the ex-
United States Commissioner of Ed
ucation, show very gratifying pro-
gress in education. In the country
as a whole the increase in school en-
rollment has been in advance of the
increase in population. The increase
is almost wholly from the Southern
States. OF the white school popula-
ton in the South, sixty-four per
cent. is enrolled and fifty-three per
cent. of the colored children are re-
ported as attending school. The ex-
commissioner is opposed to compul-
sorry education.
