MEASURED
NUMBER OF DOLLARS

Washington.-That four additional
years Of schooling generally means a
more substantial income and assures a
better future is revealed in a report
just made public by the Children's
bureau, department Of labor
To show that education means better
jobs at higher wages, the following
figures are given:
Comparing the wages of a group Of
children who left school at ID years of
age, with another group who left at
Is years Of age, it is found that at the
age of 25 the boy who remained in
school until Is had received over 81
coo more salary than the boy who left
at IA and was then receiving over
5000 a year more. In each succeeding
year the wage of the better-educated
boy viii increase considerably, while
the wage Of the less fortunate boy will
increase very little.

An item in our last weeks school

on the accredited list also, but are on

not up to the standard in some par

deem themselves. When they do this,
they will be placed on the approved

KenOsha Nurse
Died in Evanston
Miss Alice E. Ball, Recent Graduate
of Kenosha High School, Died in
Evanston Sunday.

A short illness from an acute attack
of appendicitis resulted in death Sun
day morning when Miss Alice E. Ball,
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Cornell
us Ball, 673 South Chicago street, a
recent graduate of the Kenosha High
school and a student nurse at Evans
ton, died at the Evanston hospital. The
deceased had been taken to the hos
pital last Wednesday, where an oper-
alton, undertaken as a last resort,
failed to save her life. The news of her
death came as a great shock and sor-
row to her many friends in Kenosha.
Alice E. Ball was born in Fruitport,
MichI Nov. 9, 1904, She came to Ke-
nosha with her parents while she was
yet small child and had lived prac-
tically all of her life here. She at
tended the city schools and was grad
in June, 1922, after having taken a
prominent part in the school activi-
ties, including the class play.
In the fall Of last year she had en-
tered the Evanston hospital as a stu
dent nurse and although she was the
youngest member Of her class, she was
considered one. of the most promising
of her group. III health compelled her
to take vacation during the past
summer but rest failed to restore her
vigor and she was forced last week TO
return to the hospital as o patient
when she was stricken with appendi-
citis.
Miss Ball was a member of the St.
Matthews church and for several
years had taught a group~ofS girlSpi in
the Sunday school there.
