Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL.
NEW CASTLE, Del, May 2s-E. l..
Cross. superintendent Of the rural
schools has been making a comparative
study OF the work OF the seventh and
eighth grades pupils Of New Castle
county with that Of the two previous
years as. shoyn by the examinations
taken by these pupils for entrance into
high schools. 10 is his purpose to pre-
sent this study fully in the June issue
Of the Delaware School Journal. He be-
lieves that when patrons Of rural
schools get a real picture Of the dlsad-
vantages OF their children so far as edu-
cation is concerned, they Will take more
interest in the schools. Mr.. Cross finds
that OF the ss pupils Of the county who
took the examination, &c Of about al
per cent. came from one-rOOm schools
a., or about 20 per cent, came from two
room schools while 35, or about 40 per
cent. came from graded schools Of
three or more room-schOols.
OF the one-room school pupils, i6 %
per cent, or 10 Of them passed with an
average OF 20 per cent. or higher OF
the two-room school pupils, about 80
per cent. passed with similar averages
while Of the graded school pupils, about
CSC per cent. passed in like manner
So far therefore, as having a chance for
a high school training is concerned
these classes Of pupils seem TO stand in
about the ratio of ;3:4, or the rural

child has IA OF the chance of the child
living In a town whose schools are
graded, II education is essential to a
successful life. But the above condl-
tion. both as il appears, is not a cor
rect statement Of the facts, for there are
in the county GO one-room rural schools
and i-26th Of these schools, or fewer
than i-3, sent pupils to the examination,
so that instead OF the above proportion,
IL would really be very much worse for
the rural pupil. Perhaps this ratio
should be 10 or ~. The study shows
that for some reason the pupils OF the
county have not done as good work In
most OF their subjects as did those OF
last year. In English alone does the
examination show a gain9 This is very
gratifying. however, In view OF the fact
that this IS the most important subject
and the one in which the poorest work
has been done in the past
In arithmetic, the work was, 70 far

"The Board Of Education

years, brought Dover's schools to a
