EDUCATION tOMES
CHEAP NOWADAYS
Costs only l8C. per Day
to Teach Johnnie the
I" 3 RS ="
COSTS SCRANTON SIX CENTS
MORE THAN IT DOES HOMES
DALE.

1t cost just eighteen cents a day
to educate each one of the 525 pupils
in the Borough Public schools last
year, according to the financial state
ment of the Honesdale School Dis
trict just issued.
For the small sum of eighteen
cents per diem, John and Mary have
been filled up with reading, writing
and arithmetic and extras" The
curriculum in the higher grades, by
the way, largely consists of such
luxurious deserts as Latin, Greek,
Geology, Geometry, ETC., which of
course will be of great CD help to
the boys and girls of the Maple City
in earning their living, after their
school days are over, in the glass cut
ting shops and underwear factories.
More than ten thousand dollars
was expended in paying the salaries
of fifteen teachers, and one janitor
whose salaries averaged $40 per
twenty-day month, or $3.50 per six
hour day. Understand, however,
that this was the salary average"
and not the average salary" dis
tinction with a decided difference,
some of the teachers receiving con-
siderably less than that amount and
others being paid rather more.
The secretary and treasurer of the
school board did not draw large sal
aries, and only received $50 apiece
as compensation for their onerous
duties.
Books were seemingly a small item
of expenditure, little over 81,
pupil being required for canned
wisdom" which is certainly a mark
of progressiveness, as the trend of
present day pedagogy is away from
stereotyped text book instruction and
in favor of the Socratic and lecture
methods of drawing out and impart-
ing information. For strange to re-
late, education, in it's primary mean
ing, has to do with the drawing OUT
of scholar. Nature abhorring a
vacuum, 1t is then an easy matter to
I'LL up the cranial cavity of the child
with " knowledge over much"
Not much money was wasted on
supplies, either, probably not more
than $1.25 for each scholar. A little
over dollar apiece was required to
keep the boys and girls protected
from the Arctic blasts of Honesdales
nine-months' winters!
Notes and interest amounted to
something like $4 per scholar. $751;
600 worth of bonds are still out
standing, the interest and principal
of which the boys and girls who are
now attending school, will have the
pleasure of paying later on.
That the financial affairs of the
Honesdale School District are wisely
administered is shown by favorable
comparison of the cost of individual
instruction between Scranton and
Honesdale, the cost of educating a
child per day in the Electric City
averaging twenty-four cents, or six
cents more than in the Maple City.
