WAS HERE BEFORE COLUMBUS
Claims Put Forward That Danish
Navigator Landed on the Amerl.

Several months ago DIR. Sofus Lnr.
sen OF the University Of Copenhagen
reported having discovered among old
Portuguese and Danish documents. evi-
de;,ce that John Scolvo or Scolf. a
Danish navigator, reached the Ameri-
can continent and landed there In
l478 10 years before Columbus
sailed.
According to Doctor Larsens nc.
count. the Portuguese prince Henry
the Navigator. after his twentieth at.
tempt to reach India by sailing
around the lower end of Africa had
succeeded, conceived the idea that
ships could reach another part of
India by sailing northward across the
Atlantic. He got in touch with Chris.
tinn Of Denmark, his brother.in.law,
and asked him TO assist in dispatch.
Ing an expedition from Denmark in
search of northwest passage to

and chose John Scolvo, an expert

ship. Finally the ship reached the
coast OF Labrador in safety, ana
found harbor in what Is now called

selves Understood Amid the Deaf
ening Din Of Heavy Machinery.

Among Lancashire weavers there Is
a soundless system Of communication
which has been In use for generations.
Amid the crash of the machinery
when no human vsice could be heard,
the workers converse easily with one
another by means Of lip movements
and signs made by the hands. KnowI.
edge of the weavers' language Is Il
necessity to the craftsman and the
little "tenters" study It along with
their lessons In weaving. Usually the
first thing learnt Is the time of day.
A forefnger crooked and held up, then
four fingers held up, signifies quar-.
ter to four. If the crooked finger
moves to either side 1t means n quar-.
ter past four. The pupil watches the
movements Of the lips. At first he
can only comprehend their meaning
when the words are simple and the
movements are exaggerated. In sur
prislngly short time, however, he
is able to talk to his fellow work
men with perfect ease, during the In.
tervals when the looms do not need all
of his attention.

Cost Of Education In Colorado.

: Cost Of Education In Colorado.
Denver-The average annual cost Of
education per pupil In Colorado pub
lie schools, based upon average daily
attendance, Is $129.9S, according to
compilations made by the State Imml-
grafton Department for use in the
Colorado Year Book. The average cost
based upon total enrolment In the
schools is s9l.18 These averages are
,sJr the school year ending July l, 1I,2,
and are calculated from data con.
talned in the records Of the state su-
perintendent Of public instruction.
They are based upon total expendi-
lures for school purposes for the year
and may include some expenditures
for permanent improvements which are
not properly chargeable to the cost Of
education for the current year. Total
expenditures reported for the year
were $AosOtopO4o.
Costs in Denver are above the aver
age for the state, being $1O2.25 and
$l56.28. respectively. Highest costs,
however. are found In rural districts,
where attendance Is comparatively
small. In San Juan county for exam
pie, the average cost based upon at
tendance Is $2l8.63, and In Saguache
county, where many Of the children
are transported long distances to
school, and where excellent facilities
are provided, the average cost based
upon attendance Is S228.44. In Park
county, where average attendance 10
very low compared with enrolment
the average annual cost based upon at
tendance is s28S.40, which 10 the high
est for any county. Total school ex.
penditures reported for the county,
however, are only $41.6&.
The lowest average cost based upon
attendance reported Is for Baca c0un-
ty, being $4l.67. Attendance in this
county Is rather large compared with
the school population, which reduces
the average cost. Total expenditures
reported for the county are $142,640.
Conejos county ranks next to Baca,
with an average annual cost based up
on attendance Of $63.20. The percent
age of attendance here Is low In CON-
parlson with the total number Of chill
dren Of school age, perhaps because
Of the very considerable number Of
Mexican children In the county. The
percentage Of attendance based upon
enrolment, however, Is comparatively
high.
Average costs Of education per pu-
pil has been advancing rather rapidly
In Colorado for the past few years, but
the increases for the past year were
not 30 great as for several previous
years.
