ATTENDANCE At CITY
SCHOOLS BETTER THIS
JANUARY Than LAST
Influenza Has Not Affected the City
Schools Like the Bad Winter Of
Last Year Superintendent
Caplinger Says.

Although influenza has done much
damage in the city schools the attend
ance this year has been better during
January than 1t was last year accord
ing to City Superintendent Caplinger.
This afternoon Prof. Caplinger issued
the following statement:
We were surprised somewhat, when
we compared the statistical report OF
the month Of January 1919, with the
same month of the year Of 1918. The
average daily attendance in the
schools for January 1919 was 80 more
than the preceding January which
shows that our attendance was less
influenced by the "fu" epidemic than
that of the extreme rigor of last win
ter. The attendance the past week
has been much better than that Of the
week preceding. We contemplate
normal attendance by the middle of
the week. Should our attendance1
reach normality by the close Of the
week, it is our intention of devoting
the extra hour from 2:1O to to those
students who have lost time, because
of illness or are otherwise backward
in their work. In discussing this mat
ter with the teachers, they were anxr
ious to give this extra hour to those
pupils who have been in enforced abb
sence. This, it seems to me, is a
very commendable attitude on the
part of the teachers, and believe it
will be appreciated by those parents,
who, perhaps have felt that their chill
dren were being treated unjustly in
our endeavor to live up to the regu-
lations promulgated from the State
and Local Boards Of Health.
l wish to sound this warning to par
ents of High School students; the
work in the High School demands that
certain work be accomplished or else
the grade can not be given for the
completion of that study. The closing
of schools and the irregular attend
ance on the part Of some Of the stu
dents will make it difficult for them
to complete their work. For that re, Z
son, I am asking that parents assist
us by seeing that the students con-
serve their time and energies from
now until the middle of June, SO that
they may be devoted strictly to school
work.

"My recovery since taking Tanlac
