GREAT PROGRESS
IN LAST ? YEARS

Special to The Evening Journal
DOVER, oct. 26.-Governor Den
ney. at the request Of the state Board
OF Education. has issued the follow
ing proclamation regarding School
Attendance Week in Delaware urg-
ing the necessity Of all children OF
school age to be In school beginning
the first week OF November. which
begins the 10o-day attendance period
as required under the State School
Law:
Improvement In the attend
ance OF Delaware children at
our public schools has doubtless
been the greatest achievement
Delaware h7a made in the past
two years. Three years ago our
attendance record put Delaware
below the average among the
States OF the Union. In 1918 we
were thirty-hfth among the
States on ten principal counts Of
school measurement and thirty
fifth also IN the one point of av-
erage daily attendance Of child
ron of school age. The record OF
the past two years has doubtless
/ raised that general ranking sew
eral points.
Last year there was a gam OF
2Seo over the year OF l919-1920.
This continued advance is
what we should expect Of our
people. But our school attend
ance is not yet what It ought TO
be. Our children are being de-
prived Of opportunities the
state has provided for them.
