School Data.

In Kentucky there are fewer num-
Der of children of the legal school age
in the schools ef the State than there
are children outside the schools The
number of children who do not attend
any school at all is larger than the
number of children in school. This
rather startling bit of information is
given quite casually in some of the
statistics which are being prepared
for the annual report of Prof. j. G..
Cra5be, State Superintendent of Public
instruction. This statement, showing
that there are in average daily attend
ance in the schools of the State total
of 81, 1872 children. and the number of
those not attending any school is 4l7.-
co., will be used during TIE coming
session of the Legislature as an argu.
ment for better schools and school
laws in Kentucky.
