The uniform report schedule com
of education for the use of coun-
ty superintendents of public instruc-
tion in making their reports to the
state superintendent, is one of the
most complete of its kind ever issued.
Copies of the blank reports have been
received in Moscow. They are to be
filled out and returned in compliance
with section 43-a, article 4.
The first page of the report contains
two parallel tables calling for the
county tax for general school pur-
poses, number of districts, number of
school buildings, high schools, te sch
ers, average salary paid teachers and
certificates.
The reverse or inside of the page
contains a long list of queries, Il in
number which cover all main and de-
tail information the state superintend-
ent wants as to districs in each
couny The area of each district is
asked for, number of school wagons,
number of months of school, teachers,
school buildings, grades maintained,
volumes in library, legal census, ac-
tual census, enrolment, per cent Of at
tendance, value of school property

= Expenditures are also listed. The
questions ask for total expenditures
for instruction, for operation, for
equipment, buildings and grounds, for
payment of Indebtedness, bond redemp-
ton, bond interest balance on hand or

1t is made possible through this re-
port to make a complete and very ac-
curate comparison by school districts
and by counties, so that the leaks if
any can be quickly discovered and sys-
tenn can be applied in those counties or
districts where the expenditures are
too great or not great enough This iTs-
formation will be of great value in
solving some of the educational prob
lens confronting the department.
The back page of the report calls for
data with regard to eighth grade stu
dents, institutes, teachers meetings |
reading circles, supervision by county |

RIVAL CITIES
BREAK BREAD
MOSCOW AND PULLMAN BUSINESS
MEN TOUCH ELBOWS AROUND
THE BANQUET BOARD
Imaginary Differences Between Tw,
Cities Wiped Away by FilicitOas
Speeches

That the already friendly spirit ex-
isting between the business men of
Moscow and Pullman is becoming
more firmly cemented and that all
imaginary differences heretofore ex-
listing between the two premier cities
of the big Palouse country have been
entirely wiped away, was evidenced
last night when about so of Moscow's
most prominent business men were
guests at banquet at Pullman under
the auspices of the Pullman Chamber
of Commerce. Following a most ex-
cellent repast furnished by the ladies
of the Presbyterian church, the din
ner having been served in the spac
ious dining room of that church, ad-
dresses were made by Pullman and
! Moscow citizens, each of whom ex-
pressed appreciation of the other and
of most cordial hope of continued
friendship, all for which may be TO
the glory of the two cities and their
institutions.
d. Fletcher Staley, a pioneer OF
Pullman, and known and respected by
many Moscow people, proved an ex-
cellent toastmaster and in his opening
remarks expressed his pleasure il
meeting so many visitors from the
university city and complimenting the
chamber of commerce and the busi
ness interests of Moscow in having
responded to the invitation of the Pull
man organization with such an excel
lent representation. He introduced
Mayor Jackson of Pullman who iii
choice language extended a most cor
dial welcome, Now, in the future and
for all time to come" The response
was made by President Chris Hagan
of the Moscow chamber, who express
ed on behalf of the organization, ap-
precaition and pleasure in having the
opportunity to break bread with neigh
bors.
The principal address of the evening
was from Congressman w. l. LaFol-
lette,2 who had just returned home
from trip to South America. He
spoke entertainingly for an hour on
what he had observed in Brazil. He
had gone to South America to study
trade relations but because of the
sinking of the Lusitania his journey
was cut short and he hastened home
without visiting other sections of that
country. His remarks we're listened
to with interest and much valuable in
formation was cleaned Rev. George
Fowler was called upon and express
ed pleasure being present. He eul-
ogized the country surrounding the
two cities and urged a better feeling
and cooperation between the two com
munities. His shafts of wit and hu-
NOR which we're intersperced during
his remarks were greatly appreciated.
E. ]. Iddings delivered characteristic
address uring cooperation. R. c. Nc
Crosby of Garfield also made a few
brief remarks.
