DIRECTOR OF CENSUS PRESENTS
sTARTLINke FIGURES AT THE
SOUTHERN COMMERCIAL CON-
GREsS AT CHARLESTON.

CHARLESTON, S. c.. Dec. I7.-In
presenting figures showing the remark
able progress made by the South in
the half century since the Civil War,
before the Southern Commercial con-
gress here today, Sam l. Rogers, di-
rector Of the bureau of the census
laid special stress Sn education.
While not yet up to the rest OF the
country. the South has a notable i'm
provement to show in this respect
Mr.. Rogers said in part:
"A reliable index to the civilization
OF nation or a section Is furnished
by statistics of school attendance.
Turning to these statistics. we find
that in 1860 approximately SO per
cent of the white children and youth
rom five to 10 years of age in the
south attended school. In 1870. near
the close of the dark days of the dark
Gays OF reconstruction, this percent
age had fallen to g. It then began to
1se' and 20 years later it stood at
90. At the end of another 20 wears
In 1910, 1t had reached 63-substan-
TALLY double what it was 40 wears be-
fore.
Inc statistics of school attendance
Ior negroes show, of course. a mucb
more remarkable increase. because a.
the close Of the war the number of
negroes attending school in the South
was naturally very small indeed IN
1870, only few years after the close
OF the war. and before the Sopth
nad fairly begun to recuperate from
the effects OF that great struggle
there were 10000 negroes ATTENDING
school, or a little less than per cent
OF the total number of school age
twenty years later the percentage had
risen to about 80; and in another ao
years, in 1910. there were more than
one and a half millions of negro chill
dren and youth attending school in
the South, or about As per cent of the
total number of school age.
The South today is providing
school facilities for more than ten
million children and youth, one-third
of whom are of the colored race"

JACOBSON LEAVES
TOBOOST Use OF
HAWAIIAN CIGARS

VIM. jacobson, president of the
Home Industry Cigar Co.. leaves for
the mainland via the Manchuria next
Tuesday 10 establish branches in Chi
cago and New York. These branches
will not only market Hawaiian to-
baceo, but will also operate cigar fac
tories making cigars from Hawaiian
togacco. " H..
1t will be remembered that this
concern is comparatively new in this
city having been operated throughout
the islands but few months. Aside
from a remarkable local success this
new move would tend to indicate that,
as claimed, when the company first
began operations, a thoroughly relia-
BILE process for the proper curing of
the local tobacco leaf has been dis
covered. From the beginning the
force of cigar makers has had. to be
increased to meet the demands made
upon the company for cigars. ,
Mr.. Jacobson states that aside from
their own resources his company has
negotiated with the firms of H. Hack
field & Co. and Castle & Cooke to mar
ket their entire tobacco crop. OF late
much of this tobacco has been shipped
to the states in cooperation with the
plan which Mr. jacobson now goes to
perfect and place upon permanent
basis. y ...-
Speaking from a local standpoint
and judging from the retail trade in
Hawaii Special cigars, these cigars
are rapidly winning their way into
popular favor says Mr.. jacobson.
Mr.. jacobson expects to be away
from Honolulu about two months.
