der and Bessie Lawson, and at
Hickman, by Errett Patterson
and Mary Everett.
The following schools will be
out before the Christmas boii-
days; Liberty, Edmiston, Walnut
Grove, Stubs, Fair View, Island

Of these schools, Tyler has made
the greatest Improvement in at
tendance over last year. The
attendance was about double this
term. The school has been
taught by Prof. Carlton, of Cal

We are glad that a number of
our teachers will enter there at
that time. Others wishing APP.

The percentage of attendance
based on the census in our
graded schools for the past month
was rs follows:
Fulton, 81 per cent.
Crutchfield, 20 per cent.
Hickman, 90 per cent.
Prof. Gabby informs us that
the decrease in the enrolment
of the Hickman schools is due
to the fact that many have NOV
ed from the West Hickman dis
lrict, the attendance at the Col
lege being about the same as
last year The Hickman schools
lead the graded districts in at
tendance last year, having a
general average Of So per cent
of the census.
AS there are SO few families
IN the Handy Pond district and
the attendance at this school FOr
the last three years has been very
much lower than any other
district in the county, it does
not, M present, seem ayisable TO
continue this school next year.

House Hats Business in
Mrs. Wilson's Memory

In respect to the memory Of the wife
OF the President, the House of Repre-
sentatives did not meet today.
Fifty members of the House. headed
by Speaker Clark attended the funeral
OF Mrs. Wilson this afternoon The
House committee met at the eastern
Pennsylvaia avenue gate leading into
the White House grounds. and marched
In a body to the White House.
The committee did not accompany the
body to Georgia. The President did
not desire to halt the wheels of legis-
lation for SO long a time, and as the
House committee comprises the senior
members from each state. including the
majority, minority and Progressive
leaders, little business could have been
transacted during their absence.

Senate Adjourns for
Mrs. Wilson's Funeral

Because of the funeral OF Mrs. VIII
son. wife OF the President. the Senate
was not in session today.
When 1t meets tomorrow II will take
up the shipping registry bill and make
an effort to pass It. After that will
come the Clayton trust bill and then
the bill to control issues of railroad
securities will be taken up.
The question of when to end the ses-
sion, leaders now say, depends on the
war developments. Revenue legislation
and the need for further legislation
than the registry bill may compel Con-
gress to remain here indefinitely.
