Officer received last week from the State
Board of Education, the comparative
attendance records of all the counties
in the state.

the Eastern Shore Counties. Cecifs
two teacher schools rank third in the
entire state.
The one.teacher schools rank fourth
among the Eastern Shore Counties, with
an average Of 90 per cent. The graded
schools with an attendance Of o5.6 per
cent, missed first place by only one
tenth of one per cent, Somerset and VII
comico being os.7 per cent All OF the
elementary Schools when counted to-
gether rank 9Th in the state as whole.
and 3rd on the Eastern Shore. Cecil

ance of a. per cent fell very low. hav-
ing the fourth lowest attendance in the
state. In the .,colored schools also. at
tendance was very poor. being only oI.S
per cent and the third lowest in the State.
This record on the whole, is very
