WHY CHILDREN LEAVE SCHOOL

In organizing to combat the opposi-
tion to child labor and compulsory edu-
cation bills now pending in the legisla-
ture the representatives of Hull House
women's clubs. educational and cor
rectiye institutions, who are behind
these measures, are seriously handi-
capped by lack of statistical informa-
tion regarding the condition that
| prompts so many children to leave
/ school before they reach the higher
grammar grades.
Some of the arguments advanced by
parents against making the law more
stringent are obviously hard to meet
without statistics. Children are pro-
NOTED from grade to grade in the pub
lie schools each year, but just what
proportion drop out in each grade
each year. and the causes for the fail
ure to return, are not revealed by the
school census or any other census.
What is needed is statistical infor-
nation that will show the percentage
of pupils dropping out of school in
the seventh and eighth grades, the
causes therefor. and what becomes of
the pupils who do not return to their
desks.
1t is true, as DR. Hirsch said in re-
cent address, that the reason why
boys cannot be kept in some of the
schools is because the instruction and
curriculum are absolutely without In
terest" But this does not explain all
the delinquencies. 1t is known that
| most of the children are taken out
under the pretense of family necessi-
ty" and put to work in factories. 1t
| would be interesting to know how
many in each grade were taken out in
this way and just what influences
, were brought to bear to prevent their
return.
1t is this kind of information which
Hull House Settlement workers and
| others Interested in the child-saving
movement are planning to secure. and
in gathering the data they should be
given every possible aid and encour-
agement

the growing crops and ruin their pro-
ductiveness.
Diseases are to the body what weeds
are to the soil. They divert the nutri-
tion which is necessary to sound health,
and the body, instead Of being strong
and hardy, drags out sickly existence.
When the stomach is diseased, and the
other organs of digestion and nutrition
are involved with it, there is a constant
loss of nutrition by the body. The stom-
ache and its allied organs are not able to
convert the foods into nourishment, and
hence the body and its several organs are
deprived of the necessary elements of
vitality. What is known as uweak -
heart or vweak" lungs, uweak" nerves
and other forms of so-called weakness, are
generally caused by uweakn stomach.
When the stomach and the other organs
OF digestion and nutrition are cured, then
the other diseases are cured with it. Dis
eases which are caused by a diseased
condition of the stomach are cured
through the stomach. DR.. Perce's
Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases
of the stomach and its associated organs
of digestion and nutrition. It cures
through the stomach diseases of heart,
lungs, liver and other organs. 1t In

There is no alcohol in vGolden Med
