of the prodigious expense the collision
will be staged only once, the opening
day of the fair. The collision will take
place on the infield in front of the
grandstand and the engines will be
travelling at 60 miles an hour when
they crash.

LIVING COST KEEPS
CHILDREN AT WORK
Census Report Shows Increase
in Number of School
Pupils Employed

Several interesting points are brought
out in the school census report of the
Bureau of Compulsory Education, that
show the general trend Of population
and industrial and civic developments
within the last few years.
The report shows that from 1913 to
1919 the number Of children employed
in the city dropped from 21 ,653 to
II 1884. while there was correspond :
ing increase in higher school enroll
ment during the same period. This,
according to Henry G.. Gideon, dt-
rector Of the bureau, indicates that
narents we're more and more striving
To get their children a better educa'
ton and were less inclined to have them
go to work at an early age.
Indications also point to the fact
said Mr.. Gideon, that the number o
pupils employed during this year VII
reach nearly 10000, the first time II
years that, the number has increased
This he attributes partially to th'
change in the industrial situation, ant
the continued high cost of living.
Nearby industrial plants are ais
thought by Mr.. Gideon to have at
tracted many pupils, who have bee
| able to earn more money than usual.
