1941 Enrolled.
Seventy more kiddies were register
ed in the Ottawa schools today, than
were enrolled at noon on the opening
of the roll a year ago. Every school
in the city, with the exception OF Co.
lumbus school in Center Ottawa, made
a gain at the opening session At
noon the enrolment at Columbus was
1876, which was exactly the same as
in September, 1921.
The total enrolment stood at 1941,
while the records at the close of the
morning session last year showed that
1871 had entered the various educa-
tional institutions,
The number obtained from the var
ious schools did not include the kim
dergarden classes at Washington, Co
umbus, nor the afternoon class at Lin
coin school. Principal c. j. Byrne
placed the estimate on these classes
at 40, which will make the total en-
ro.lment at the close of the day, 1881.
While almost all Of the children in
Ottawa trOoped back to classes this
morning, some few will enter the later
in the week, which will probably swell
the total registration some 10 or 90
1t would not be surprising if by the
close of the week the registration
would pass the 1000 mark.
! The registration at St Xavier's Con-
vent was also larger than in previous
years, more than 85 girls starting their
years work when classes were called
! The greatest gain in the number OF
pupils was made by St Francis in West
Ottawa Twenty-three more students
attended classes there this morning
than a year ago. Shabbona was sec
ond with a gain of twenty; Lincoln
third with sixteen; Washington next
with eight; and Jefferson, in North
Ottawa, had gain of five. The ex
act gain in the enrolment in st. Co
lumba and St PatriCks schools could
not be obtained today, but heads oi
both schools stated they had moro pu
pills than ever before.
The enrolment of the various school:
up to noon today was as follows:
