ing Program Planned

THE NEWSPAPER

There are some people who
take the view that newspaper is
a garbage bucket into which any,
thing may be dumped. Mistake
No. l. There are some people
who think that a newspaper is
published only to serve a selfish
interest and throw the harpoon
into the other fellow. Mistake
No. 2. There are some people
who think that a. newspaper
should print what is obviously
advertising matter without cent
of compensation. Mistake No 3.
There are many other similar
mistakes with regard to the pub
lication of a newspaper. but these
vi answer for the moment
True it is that a newspaper
gives away much, especially
where charity is concerned. but
it does not follow that the pub
Usher should adopt charity as an
established custom and open the
door freely to all comers. Space
is the only thing that a newspaper
has to sell, and the publisher that
gives it away is no wiser than the
merchant who gives away hat
or a suit of clothes to man who
'omes into his store and aS<
them.-Burlington On. ~ En-

EFFICIENCY OF
THE YALE SCHOOLS

Some may recall that about a
year ago some data concerning
the efficiency of Yale schools was
announced
1t was found that the efiicien-
cy was about rs per cent, and
that the number OF repeaters
was 45 in the grades. A repeat
er is one who spends more than
a year to the grade. These 45
children being taught over and
over means the retaining of one
more teacher than, otherwise
would be necessary. Through
good teaching and regular at
tendance it was stated that with
in three or four years the extra
teacher could be eliminated.
The efficiency of our schools
has been worked out again and
the results are as follows;
The efficiency of a school is
made up Of two factors, he rela-
tion of the number of pupils fin
ishing the eighth year. of work to
the average number of beginners
and the relation cf thc number of
pupils we would have in the
grades if all progressed normally
to the number Of pupils We actu-
ally have.
Deducting for increase in pop
ulation, we have 27 pupils in
the eighth grade, which, with the
number of beginners (29) gives
us the fraction 27-29. Since there
would be at the present time 20 x
8 or 232 pupils in the grades t.
all progressed normally. and We
have 265, we have the other fac
tor, 232-265. Thus the efficiency
OF the school is 27-29ths 232-
265ths, equal 90 per cent
This means that our efficiency
has raised 8 per cent during the
past year. A perfectly running
school is one having an efficiency
Of 81 to 80 per cent, This is due
to the fact that some pupils are
removed by death, while some
with physical or mental defects
can not progress normally.
Hence We have a margin Of Z
to 10 per cent with which to in
crease the efficiency of Yale
schools
Last year there were 40 re-
peaters, this year SO, meaning a
reduction of IL repeaters. Since
the cost of instruction in the
grades was found to be $37.61
per pupil, the reduction of the re-
peaters saves the district $37.61
II, or $451.32.
The raising of the efficiency of
our schools was possible through
the cooperation of the parents
in securing regular attendance of
the children. and efficient work
on the part of our teachers. With
the regular attendance of the chill
dren, this year the chances are
that the efficiency of our schools
will be raised still more during
the coming year.
