NUTS SCHOOL GROWTH

Children OF Maui are remaining in the schools longer, advancing
farther in education than formerly. The growth of the schools is pro-
porionatcy better above the sNth grade than the lower grades though
in The latter increases are highly satisfactory.
Some data ON the natviics of school children and how such chill
drn are being occupied in vocational work was given in last weeks
Maui News compiled from the term report of the schools as of Deem
Der 20, furnished 10y Supervising Principal H. NJ. Wells. Mr.. Wells
these make possible comparisons of present enrolment with those of the
past
While more than 90 percent of the schools enrolment is in the six
lower grades, in the past decade the percentage of increase of the higher
grades as been easily the largest. And leaving out the high school,
taking only the lower FIVE grades ard the upper three of the grammar
schools II is found that since 1919 there was a gain of l7 or nearly a
third of the total increase in the schools. At the same time the high
school increased Il so the increase in the upper grades is between IS
and 40 percent Of the total
In the past II years school attendance on Maui has a little more
than doubled. Al that time less than ! percent of the children were
in the upper three grades of the grammar school and more than 50 per-
cent in the first grade. To-day about a third of the registration is in
the lowest grade and more than II percent in the sixth, seventh and
eighth grades. With total attendance doubling in that time, the regis
tration in the sixth, seventh and eighth grades was more than 600 per-
cent greater than i'll 1900.
In part, such growth may be attributed that of the larger schools
which has rendered possible better grading arrangements and better su-
pervEion by the principals. In part it is from the establishment of the
Maui High School with its added inducements for continuing on through
the higher grammar school grades. And by no means least of all, it
has been due to the improvement in personnel of the rank and file of
the teachers OF whom, IA years ago only 80 percent had certificates.
In the increases shown over last year it is found that three fourths
of the increase came from children of Japanese parents, part-Iawaian
children increased 70 in number but those of full Hawaiian blood de-
creased by about 70, or four percent. Portuguese and Anglo Saxons
showed approximately the same gain, about 80 each, the percentage of
guese.
1t is such figures as Mr.. Wells has furnished that show Mauis
expenditures for schools have been warranted by worthwhile results
obtained.

PROPOSED TRAFFIC LAW

In the preparation of such an act as the proposed Territorial Traffic
Law, a digest of which is published by Maui News this week, much
difficulty is certain to be encountered in the effort to meet the diverse
conditions that are found in the different Islands and in different parts
OF each OF the Islands, to make 4 harmonious whole which will be in tune
with such differing situations. All in all it would appear on the surface
that the proposed bill has gone a long way toward effecting such a re-
suit. Even SO, 1t is too much to expect it to satisfy all interested persons
on any one Island or in any one community.
Much IS TO be found to be commended in the proposed law. In
the hrst place ii is desirable that, SO far as possible, there should be a
uniformity of regulations in all parts of the Territory o an automobile
driver or owner may now what to expect wherever he may go. There
can be advanced no good reason why 4 license issued in one county, a
number plate issued in one county, should not be good in each other
county. In that respect the proposed law is to be commended. In
taxation of cars, in their transfer, as well as in their registration there
is no reason why a general rule should not prevail. So far as speed
upon public highways and in congested sections and the vicinity of
schools is concerned 1t is not clear why rules should differ in different
counties.
The main difficulty to secure the legislation is to get together. At
the very outset Maui Automobile Club discovered this when the Island
luke warm or opposed to it. In looking through the proposed bill there
are seen several points which will rouse objection in Honolulu, especial
~ IN the provisions relating to the passing of street cars. Before passage
the measure will have to be harnonized to meet the sound objections of
each county and there will be the difficulty. Maui took the innve TO
bring about an understanding, but without avail.
Without doubt Maui as a whole stands for the law. There are diff
ferences OF opinion as to what if any speed limits should be enacted,
mere VIII be found differences of opinion as to other matters, but in the
END Maui may be expected to support it.
HAWAII tavors the idea. How the draft will please remains to be
learned, So whatever opposition arises will have to come from Homo
able but Honolulu is the uncertain element. 1t is to be hoped that an
agreement can be reached at the coming session, but the subject is one
whch, once started, will not down. On Maui the conferences which
have been held have had excellent effect and hearings in Honolulu NAV
convert HonoluLans to the measure and result in a Inform regulation
which will give uniform satisfaction.
