THE RURAL SCHOOL TERM.
(By ]. l.. McBrien, School Extension
Agent, U. s. Bureau OF Education,

10Y u. II. htbtiths bthVOs
Agent, U. s. Bureau OF Education,
Department Of the lnterior.)
School attendance is Of first consid-
Grafton in a discussion of the rural
school term. According to the state
superintendent of public instruction of
Louisiana, the Hon. T. II. Harris, a
rural school term OF six months with
an average daily attendance Of 100
per cent ID longer and a better and
a cheapers school term than nine
months term with an average daily
attendance Of only 66 2-3 per cent.
The United States commissioner of
education agrees with the premise laid
down by Superintendent Harris. Ev-
cry agency should be used to improve
rural school attendance before tax
payers are asked to bear the burden
of increased taxation for a longer
school term wherever poor attend
ance Is tolerated. Georgia is the lat.
est state to enact compulsory school
attendance law. Such an act was
passed by the Georgia legislature and
approved by Governor Harris August
10, 1916.
The main features of this law are
thus reviewed in an editorial In the
Atlanta Journal:
Judged by its positive virtues rath.
er than by negative limitations, the
compulsory school attendance meas.
ure passed at the recent session of
the legislature Is praiseworthy and
serviceable law. Its terms are not as
far-reaching and stringent as those
prescribed in parts OF New England
and the West-and wisely So for II
reforms Of this character are to be
permanent they must be temperate
and gradual.
1.-THE measure voides In substance
that children between the ages of s
and IA shall attend school for not less
than four months year. Exceptions
to this requirement apply to those
children who have completed the
fourth grade of the grammar (elemen
tary) school, those whose parents or
guardians are In destitution, those
whose services are needed in farm
emergencies and those who are men.
tally or physically incapable Viola.
tors OF the law are subject to ade.
quate penalties"
The deplorable results OF want of
compulsory school attendance law
In Georgia are strikingly evident In
the large number OF pupils who quit
school between the second and the
seventh grades In the white schools.
There were 5S.246 pupils who entered
the second grade for the year ending
December 81. 1915; only 26.57s enter.
ed the seventh grade for that year,
which shows that 31.67O pupils quit
school between these two grades: in
other words. Georgia is not giving
over half her white pupils a seventh,
grade education.
The public school course OF Georgia
covers eleven years. with the excep.
ton OF few OF It's progressive cities
which have recently added the
twelfth grade. According to the an.
nual school report for the white
schools OF Georgia for the year end
ing December 81, 1915. there were

ID with a moderate run of cattle,
some 1853 loads, or about 1000 head.
Demand from the dressed beef men
seemed to be very good for corn fed

interest in the Western grass cattle
than in the natives. Prices were
stronger than at the close of last
week, and in most cases a dime
higher. Some choice 1,45O-pound
beeves sold at 1915, and very
choice yearlings brought $3.50. Bulk

Owing to the stronger prices at
other markets and the small run of
hogs here, buyers had to pay a full So

call was broad and good lights and
butchers sold readily on early rounds
at a 5@10c advances The early packer
bids were little or no higher, but the
sellers all held for higher prices and
when movement finally started values
were in about the same notches as
shippers had paid. Most of the pack.

shippers bought a good many at $40

were offered on Mondays market, but
