ONE AMERICAN In FOUR
is ATTENDING SCHOOL

A recent report from the Federal
Bureau of Education shows the ex-
ceednlgly interesting fact that twenty |
four per cent of the population OF the
United. States, or approximately one
person in every four, is attending
school,
This army of students numbers
twenty-three million, five hundred
thousand. of whom the great majority,
of course. are in the public schools,
particularly the elementary grades.
In those schools the enrolment in
creased from sixteen million, nine
hundred thousand in 1910 to seven
teen million. nine hundred and thirty
five thousand in 1914, and in the past
two years the growth has been cnoa'-
ly> pronounced. While High Schqoi at
tendance shows an encouraging IN
crease, it is nothing like that Of the
secondary departments, where the en-
]rolInent has advanced from nine
hundred and fifteen thousand III 1910
Ito one million, three hundred and
;twenty-nina in 1915.
Commenting on the relative growth
of attendance in High Schools and
