MILLIONS IN THE SCHOOLS.

The registration in the public schools of New York on the third day Of the present school year reached the enormous total of 909.65S. This is an increase of nearly P in the last four years Under the circumstances it is strange that some 126,OOO New York pupils only attend school part Of the day. Four years ago the school attendance was 5000 less than and at that time 39 00 pupils compelled forego school for a part ot each day, That means that New York is prepared to care for more than 75,000 pupils than she wa able to care for in 19l7 In other words, the City has prepared herself for increase three per per year, but she has grown faster than that
 In addition to this enormous attendance at he- public schools it is estimated that another 100 900 attending the schools of higher learning New City this year Five New York universities Columbia the College of the City of New York, New York University Hunter University and Fordham Univer- siy, have more than 000O students. That means that in one American city than 900 future citizens Of the United States being educated for the tasks that are before them. And that con tafns only one eighteenth of the population of the United States. If the proportion of the youtl of the land is going school in other sections Of the United States in New York there are today in this America of 1sO00. young American boys and girls preparing themselves the country when the present generation is through.
