STATE HOUSE
Report of State Supt. Regards
Student Loss from Second
airy Schools as a Matter
Of Concern

The student losses from secondary
schools may be regarded as matter
of concern, says the annual report &c
the State superintendent of schools.
Any examination of general statistics
can only approximate actual condi-
tions Comparing the registration By
Classes the figures show that the sec =
ond year class is % per cent smaller
than the first year class; the third year
class is smaller by 90 per cent thaa
the second; the fourth 20 per cent
smaller than the third. While during
the fourth year per cent of the class
left school or failed to graduate.
The percentages show the approx
mate losses from year to year. Com
pairing these conditions with the best
obtainable figures for the country al
large, even this showing is favorable
to the Maine high schools. For tn :
United States as whole the first year
high school class is 40.9 per cent of tn"
total enrolment. For Maine, ii repre-
sents Al per cent. But the fourth year
class for the country at large is only
1875 per cent while the fourth year
class for Maine comprises 1876 per cent
of the total enrolment in the high
schools. In studying the losses for our
schools, il is noted that between the
first and second year d considera bly,
larger number of boys than girls lett
school last year. Between the second
and third year, the condition was re-
versed though the difference is less
marked In the last two years Of the
course the losses of boys and girls are
approximately the same. Secondary
school attendance is often a hardship.
Boys and girls of secondary school age
begin to realize that they have at
tanned wage earning capacity and the
opportunity for individual gain is diff
fcult to put aside in favor Of the more
remote and. 10 them, less easily dem
onstrable value Of an educational
investment.
Then again. by reason of remoteness
from the homes, attendance at hlgn
school or academy presents the pAE-
steal difficulty of the hardship or ex-
pense of going to and from school. 1t
is safe to say that hundreds of boys
and girls in our secondary schools
travel an average Of five miles a day.
Hardly a school but has some studen,
or students living at distance OF hVs
OF, six miles from the schoolhouse ana
driving or walking throughout the
year. 1t may be said, too. that these
children are not seldom the most regu-
lar in attendance the least often taroy
and the most thoroughly interested ~
the student body. The fact that Maine
! holds so creditable position among
the states on point of secondary school
attendance must in the face of the rel
atively sparse population be construed
favorable to the enterprise of the
| youth and to the zeal felt among the
| people for the promotion OF education

Note. From Dr.. Love.

The following from the Missionary
Bulletin. is from DIR. Love, of Soochow,
China and is published by request of
a member of the First Methodist Mis-
sionary Society:
Soochow itself has more canal streets
than Venice, and we can go anywhere
in or outside the city in most attrac-
tive and comfortable and slow Chinese
house boats. II we choose to get to
the railway station in less than one
and half to two hours, we can take
a sedan chair carried on the shoulders
OF our fellow human beings. or we can
ride q donkey. The streets are very
narrow, so we cannot use inrikishas,
as is done in some of the other cities.
Besides being most picturesque and
unique because of the canals and the
miles long. encircling the city with its
six gates, the city is noted for its
wealth, pagodas, and temples. One of
China's largest pagodas, eight stories
high, is here and In fine state Of pre-
servation. Then there are also the
famous ink-and-pen pagodas
In the temples have seen ignorant.
cropping heathenism burning incense
and kneeling in worship before hideous
wooden idols. Actually to see such
things makes a different impression
upon one, than just reading it in books
or missionaries letters. Through pity
and love one wants to tell them the
truth, the life, and the way. In one
temple we saw five hundred idols of
every conceivable fancy, all made of
crumbling clay. and in an adjoining
room some fifty priests chanted and
worshiped before gigantic Buddhas
Can you think it possible that these
people believe in and sincerely wor-
ship these mud and wooden images?
Yes, can. because have seen edu-

and professional success. and other
metals-all base unless they have
passed through the refining fire of His
pardoning grace and love.

POTATO NOTES

Houlton. Nov 1.-THE potato situ-
alton in Aroostook remains about as il
has for the past month. The price
paid is still around the Sl.15 mark.
with no great demand for stock It
is expected by the average farmer
that as the cold weather comes on the
price is bound TO go up. Some of the
buyers. however do not expect to see
any very fancy prices, although near
ly all expect the s. mark will be
reached. 1t is predicted by many of
the buyers that the month of Novem-
Der is TO be a dull one in the moving
of potatoes. The fall has been a. fine
one and the farmer has been able to
keep busy even though he may not be
hauling potatoes to market. Plough
ing has all been done for the spring
planting and many other outdoor jobs
have been finished. This has been a
remarkable fall as the ground is still
unfrozen and there has been lust rain
enough TO make ploughing easy. At
ter the price of potatoes starts upward
hauling will then begin in earnest.
