thousand were in normal schools prepar-

fessional schools. and the remainder were
scattered through other types of institu-
tons. The teachers for this educational
army numbered 100000. OF whom sd, 900
were In public schools. In point of
rapid growth the public high schools still
presents the most impressive figures. The
enrolment for 1914 is greater by over
$4,000 than for the year before
The cost Of education for the year. as
estimated by the bureau, was $3.50 600 COO
