MISS stage GIVES
COMPLETE REPORT

The report of the school attendance

age percentage Of attendance for High
schools in May was SO. Pocomoke
not only fell below this little over
2 per cent, but stands at the bottom
of The list Of High schools in the coun-
ty her percentage being 93.9. Stock
ton heads the list with mark of 97.3;
followed by Snow Hill 97.00; Ocean
City with 96.S; and Berlin with 96.5.
This may be due to the fact that with
d larger enrolment, it is more diff
cult to maintain a high percentage. A
record of $50 is very respectable in
deed, but, as said in previous issue
Of the Democrat Pocomoke's position
at the bottom Of the list does not look
well to the friends of the local school.
In the graded schools, Pocomoke's
position looks better, being second on
the list with percentage of s4.S,
Ocean City leading with a mark of
95.3. The average in this class of
school was 92.5. The new school
building in Stockton did not look as
well to the pupils in the grades as it
did to the High school students, for
they stand at the bottom of the list
for May with an average of S6.5.
The other schools in this class rank
as follows: Whaleyville, 94.7; Bish-
opville, Cal; Snow Hill, "a; Girdle-
tree 91.3; and Berlin, S7.8.
n In the two-teacher schools Newark
Sleads with a percentage of 92.S, the
average being 91.9.
In the one-teacher, Friendship is at
the top with 96.7, the overage being
s5.4. GNtt
The average attendance in May
Of 1925 was 95 per cent in the
High schools, 9O.7 per cent in the
graded schools, SAT- per cent in the
two-teacher schools and 500 per cent
in the one teacher schools. Compare
these percentages with those of 1925
listed above. All the. elementary
schools in the county made 90.5 pei
cent in 1926 against 87.8 per cent il
1926. All types Of schools show a de-
cided increase.
Ninety-nine boys and girls in thu

Tydings Announces His
Candidacy For US. Senate

Representative Millard E. Tyiings
filed his papers last Thursday as
o candidate for nomination to the U.
S. Senate. s e.. Gh
Mr.. Tydings has been offered the
support of the leading Democrats of
the city and State, and apparently will
have no Opposition in the primaries.
His candidacy quickly followed the
withdrawal Of Mr.. Janney., The close
friendship existing between Governor
Ritchie and him, seemed to make Mr..
Janney's exit advisable. i
The career Of Mr.. Tydings in the
House should be an excellent prepa-
ration for the higher division Of Con-
gress, and the whole State democracy
should get behind him in his efforts
to win the nomination. ~

himself abundantly qualified to carry

doubt, will secure position which
will pay him more money, the need Of

decision to seek another engagement.
