SCHOOL CENSUS TO BE TAKEN
IN COUNTY
Law Designates Nov. To 1910
Afford Basis For School
Find Distribution


In compliance with the school law
of MARYLAND, the school census Will
he taken in the counties in 1886. Inc
taken in the counties in 1885. The
school census in this county will be
taken during the first and second
weeks of November, from November
2 to November 10.
There are several reasons for tax
ing the census. The main purpose
for taking the census is to afford
basis for the distribution Of the State
school funds. Each county in Mary
land will receive its proportional
share of State money based on the
number of children in that county.
The second reason for the school
census is to ascertain the amount OF
educational service that the county
must provide. By knowing where
the children are situated the school
authorities have basis for develop
ing a school building program.
The third reason for the school
census is to assist in the enforce
ment of the compulsory attendance
law which now extends to the age OF
16 years.
The census blanks for 1886 are
similar in form to those used In
1894. Every parent or guardian OF
each child shall give the following
facts about their children: CD Name
of the child; (2) Place of birth; CD
Date of birth; (4) Age last birthday;
co School now attending; COZ
Handicaps, if any; CD Employed or
unemployed; (S) Name OF the fam
lily physician; CO. Name OF the
mother and father or guardian; (1O
3 Residence; (11) Occupation of the
parents; (12) Parent home-owner
or a renter.
According to the Maryland State
School Law, Article II, Section 30,
"Whosoever has under his control a
child between said ages and with
holds the information in his posses
sion from any officer demanding it,
relating to items aforesaid, or make
any false statements in regard to the
same, shall be deemed guilty OF a
misdemeanor and be fined not more
than twenty dollars

THE THREE RS

El Centro's school year has started
Though school rooms buzzed with stu
dents for the first time Monday, actually
the start would date, probably. from the
plans made during the summer by teach
ers, principles and school boards.
From the standpoint of relation to the
public, school got under way Saturday
at meeting of teachers, school and
board officials, and representatives of
almost every civic and service organiza-
tion in the community The gathering
was, from every angle, one of the most
inspiring which has taken place here for
many months. Not only were the pre-
ceptS and concepts of modern day educa-
ton touched upon, but through express
sionS from selected leaders. and direct
contact between teachers, parents and
tax payers, there was sounded a stirring
keynote of cooperation, mutual assist
ance and common objectives.
No longer does education consist of
instruction only in the three RS. In ad-
dition to the task of giving youth tools
of thought and knowledge. school now
is a character builder, psychiatric elm
ic where the mental processes of chill
dren are carefully moulded so as to pro-
duce the most productive life. Ideals are
incalcated, personalities and talents de-
veloped. We can remember when we
couldn't see much difference between
a school and jail, but nowadays, we
see little difference beween schooltime
and playtime, so far have educational
methods advanced.
There is one score upon which we feel
especially sorry for teachers. Most of
us harvest the crops of our own planting
and reap the JOY or sorrow of knowing
that what we planted has succeeded or
failed Teachers, however, plant their
efforts in crops which are long years in
the growing. What eventually happens
in the harvest of adult lives, few instruct
ors ever know 1t is too bad that in this
high calling, the worker seldom shares
in the final outcome
Ell Centro and the union high school
district can we'll be proud of our educa-
tional institutions Parent and child
and teacher unite in the common objec-
tive of continued improvement to the
point where our school system will rank
among the best in the land

Last year there were 81 deaths dur

AS the number each year increases, it
indicates the degree by which the lives
of you, members OF your family, and
those of your friends are endangered.
The safety and patrol agencies of the
