SCHOOLS TOO CROWDED
 TO DO THE BEST WORK
AVERAGE OF 55.5 PUPILS TO ROOM IS TOO GREAT, SAYS.
 ,SUPT. WOMACK,
ceremony

With 555 pupils in 10 rooms, an av- craze of 55.5 to the room, it is i'm possible for the best work to be done in the Conway public school, according to Supt. J. F. Womack. The school re-opened yesterday with that number present, the attendance in each room being as followsi Room 1, ST; ?, 6S: 3, 55; 4, 65; 5, 55;. $, 5i; 2, 5s; 8, A; 9, 37; 10, S2. ~.
 "As 40 is considered a full room, it will be easily seen that our teachers are doing a great deal more work than they should be asked to do,' said Supt.
 Womack today. Look at the figures for rooms 1 to 2 inclusive and decide whether you can reasonably criticize the teachers for what they do or fail to do. How many parents could keep that many children in order eight hours day and not get any gray hairs? And yet the teachers have not only to keep order but to teach as well. In fact, keeping order is only
 incidental to their work. So, if your child does not seem to get all the at tention it seems entitled to, just re- member that the average time pupil lis entitled to is little less than seven minutes a day. And remember also only one room can give more than that amount, while four of them must give less" >t,x
