COST OF PUBLIC EDUCATION
United States Pays Out Many Millions
of Dollars for the Benefit of
Future Citizens.

In round numbers there were g.
100000 persons enrolled in educa-
tional institutions in the United
States in 1914, according to the an
nual report of the United States
commissioner of education. Of these,
more than 100000 were in ele-
mentary schools, 1874, 1000 in second
airy schools, both public and private,
and $4,000 in colleges and univer-
sites.
Close to another 100000 were in
normal schools, preparing to be
teachers; $4,000 were in professional
schools, and the remainder were scat
tered through other types of institu-
tons. The teachers for this educa-
tional army numbered 100000, of
whom $4,000 were in public schools.
In point of rapid growth, the public
high school 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
$750,000,000. "This amount is a
relatively small sum when compared
with other items in the public ex-
pense," declares the report. at is
less by $300,o0o,O0O than the cost
OF running the federal government
it is only little more than three
times the estimated cost of admis-
sions to moving picture theaters in
the United States for the same year"

British Income Tax


Seventyfour years ago an act of
parliament was passed which Is still
very vigorous and doing its bit" in
the war, the London Chronicle states.
1t was the famous income tax act of
1912, brought In by Peel to make up
the loss of revenue caused by his re-
form of the tariff, and most of its pro-
fisions have been reimposed each year
ever since. 1t was intended to be
only a temporary measure, but both
Peel and Lord Russell renewed 1t, and
Gladstone passed Q continuing act in
1853, which extended the income tax
to Ireland. 1t having applied previous.
ly to Great Britain only.
Our income tax is, however, older
than Peel. for it was first imposed
In 1893 to raise funds for the carry
ing on OF the war with France. and
continued year by year until 1916, the
year after Waterloo. For the next
quarter of q century (happy days) /!
there was no income tax, but since
1872 its yield has steadily grown, and
1t now forms q permanent part of the
fiscal system. In 1893 at 2s in the
pound sterling 1t produced $4,000, 900:
in 1914 at Is Sd it produced &c.,
100000. The highest rate between 1912
and 1914 was Is Sd, in 1902 (for the
Boer war;; the lowest rate, I'd, was
reached In 1874.

Vegetable Diet

There is no doubt that human beings
can get along very well on vegetable
diet. Some of the strongest men In
the world (the Oriental porters) live
almost wholly on rice and the various
fruits. The horse and the OK, noted
for their strength, are purely vege-
tartan. The old idea that In order to
be strong one must devour great stores
of meat is no longer considered seien-
titically orthodox.
