another feature Of the rercrt. showing
that during the last ten years the
state has contributed the sum Of
1851, $3.50. 97 for this purpose. The
state is required by law to transfer
annually out Of her general revenue
an amount sufficient to make the gen.
eral schol fund aggregate $750,000.
Approximately 100000 has been re-
quired annually beginning with the
year 1908, or the equivalent Of 1-2
cent state levy. hence an average Of
3 IL cenths OF state levy laid each
year has gone back to the counties for
local school purposes and has not
been for any state purpose. Without
this state aid, the state levy would
have been reduced 3 IL rents and the
local school levles increased 1-2
cents.

Test Successfully

Transportation on all the lines Of
the Monongahela Valley Traction
company was very light yesterday.
The traffic did not exceed that of
the usual week day.
Saturday and Monday were two OF
the biggest days the company has yet
experienced. No trouble of any kind
jnterfered with the schedule. Satur-
day and Monday the cars were rum
ming a little late, which was due en-
tirely to the unusual traffic.
