PARK VIEW CENSUS SOON.
Citizens Association to Have
Figures Early Next Week.

The school census beink taken in
Park View by members of the cjti-
zens' association of that community
will be completed early next week.
it was stated today by Miss Frances
S. Farley, principal of the Park View
School. who is directing this work.
1t was the hope of Miss Farley to
finish the taking of the census in
time to have statistical report of
the re suits in the hands of the mem
bers of the board of education yes
terday.
Mr.. Farley pointed out that sew
eral points in Park View were over
looked by the enumerators, and the
canvassing of this territory would
take additional time. Results thus
far obtained, however. are being
tabulated. and it is said they bear
out the statement of DR.. Frank w.
Ballou, superintendent of schools,
that the taking of the census would
prove it's value to the community.
! Incomplete returns made by the
enumerators indicate the need of adj
ditional school facilities for chill
dren of Park View, it is said, besides
more playground space.

Report is that under the aus
pices of the Smithsonian in
stitution Prof. Robert H. God
dard is preparing an aerial en-
CINE which is expected to rise
230 miles. It is in the form of
a rocket which will explode at in
tervals after leaving the earth,
it's impetus on returning to be
delayed by a self-launching par
achute. But can it return after
rising beyond the earth's 30
mile atmospheric rim, above
which our attraction Of gravity
is supposed to be absent? How
ever that may be, it has already
given birth to the dream of 60

TRAINING O WHILE.

The recent report issued Dy
the Federal Board for Vocation
al Education reveals that tWen-
ty-four odd thousand disabled
soldiers, sailors and marines are
being retained in a wide varle-
ty of vocational occupations. An
outstanding feature Of the re-
port is the retaining which IS
being granted to the nurses and
other women who took an active
part IN the winning of the war
and we're disabled while per-
forming their duties.
The report showed that ap-
proIinately "a per cent of the
entire number are enrolled in
trade and industrial groups;
about 32 per cent qualified for
business and commercial train
ing; more than Is per cent are
fitting themselves for agrlcul-
tural pursuits, with strong indi-
cations that the percentage OF
those taking agriculture will be
more than doubled ;only 16 per
cent were given professional
studies.
The number of vOcations in
which the veterans are being re-
trained are many and varied. In
the trades, alone, men r being
fitted for the expert use of ev-
cry known tool in any mechani-
cal field.
Those veterans who are tax,
ing instruction in business anC
commerce invariably aspire tC
administrative positions. In the
professions 1856 have chosen
scientific courses. The study Of
medicine finds 59S enrolled
Theology is being closely studied
by about so veterans.
A careful survey made by of.
ficers of the Federal Board fol
Vocational Education has brou
ght to light very few who were
dissatisfied with the training
given them. Every effort has
been made to see that the re
training of these men has beer
complete in every detail, anC
those whose courses have beer
finished are now embarked upo1
a civil career, capable of com
handing big pay, independent il
the knowledge that they arr
masters in their particular lines
and extremely grateful to tn
Government which has made al
this possible.

THE GOOD ROADS BILL.

The Mississippi Good Roads
Bill, calling for a bond issue of
$25,0OO,O 600 for the improvement
of highways in the state has
been introduced in both the
house and senate.
Briefly, it provides:
That the bonds shall be is
sued in sections and not in a
lump sum.
That the expenditure is safe
guarded by a commission.
Provision is made for main
tenance.
Each county will share alike in
the benefits under the bill in
proportion to the size and i'm
portance of the section and its
needs for highway Improvement,
The bonds are predicated on
the raising of motor vehicle Ii
censes and other revenue sour
ces. An advalorem tax and a
gasoline tax likely will be pro-
vided, the former being carried
in the measure proper.
A companion bill introduced
raises the license fees for auto
mobiles, the maximum being ap-
proximately $25 per year. This
is necessary and the success OF
the bill depends on this provis-
ion.

ACTIVITY Is Desuitory
With PRICES Downward.

NEW YORK, June 3.--The stocl
! market was in a state of suspended
animation during the greater part OF
today's desultory dealings, transactions
for the full session scarcely totalling
100000 shares.
Price tendencies were mainly
downward, although losses. except
among selected issues. were partly re-
lievcd when the money market devel-
oped unxpected ease and the shorts
found 1t expedientto cover.
Call money opened at 8 per cent. a
reflection of yesterdays sharp rise,
but relaxed to six per cent in the last
hour on a surplus of offerings to
which out of town banks made sub
stantial contributions.
A steadicr tone prevailed in foreign
exchange, especially tho London quo
tation. which rose about five cents to
the pound on heavy purchases of de-
mand bills. Tho Paris rate also re-
corded materially Improvement but
marks reacted.
Dullness in stocks extended to the
bond market with liberty issues ex-
periencing further depreciation in
some instances yielding l per oent.
