that IA, 1924 days of school work have been

during the year. 1t must also be startling
to know that there were 1919 tardy marks
during the year, and that the number
neither tardy nor absent was so small as
Is.
Again. the last paragraph shows that up
to the 18th rear. the end of the grammar
grade, an equal number of boys and girls
attend our schools, but IS soon as the high
school is reached, the divergence becomes
marked, and the boys fall to small
minority 1t must be desirable that our
boys receive equally with the girls the
full benefit of our public schools. Who

MORE TO FOLLOW.

Congressman Joe Sibley of Penn
sylvania has turned republican. He,
the once valiant apostle of the white
metal, whose forcible eloquence and
invincible logic bore conviction to
the hearts of men, has abandoned the
cause of democracy for the sake of
reform. Mr.. Sibley is an honest man
and the prospect of seat on the
bourbon side of the house, while the
visible supply of calcium chloride is
so much needed in renovating our is
land possessions, causes no wonder to
be expressed at his course. One nat
urally infers that there are others to
follow. But democratic editors are
saying, ''they was never no good nc
way"
