Tlio school enrollment in the county allow comparatively lew of the school population not In atendance. The school eiirollinent last year showed a total of 1740, distributed In the grad. s a follows: llcglnneis 22'.', Mist grade I'M",, second grade liix, third grade lift, fourth grade 2IS, flith grade l!m, sixth grade 174, seventh grade lfil, eighth grudo l.'.X; from the figures It will be Keen there were 20.". of school age, between be-tween t and IS, not enrolled in the grades, a great number of these 2oj graduated Irom the eighth grade before they reached IK, and consequent y were not Htlending imblic schools, though enumerated in the hcIiooI census. It 1h also a source of congratulation to the Hrhool patrons of onr couniy that our public Bchool graduates have been up to the standard required, and that ninny of them continued Bchool attending higher Institutions of learning learn-ing In the state. Since 1102 040 stu-dents stu-dents have completed the grades In Millard County, tho number for each year an follows: 1902, 2.1; l!to:i, G4; 1H04, 4S; lOor., 27; li)0G. C5; 1907, CN; IDOS.'tiO; 1909, 82; 1910, 9:1. Of the class graduating last year 75 per cent are attending high schools. There is no reason now why 100 per cent of our graduates should not atiend high school. Since the establish merit of the Millard Stake Academy, and the Kill-more Kill-more High School, each offering three year'i work, higher learning Is In the reach of all, and we hope these Institutions Insti-tutions will not only attract those who i complete the public schools, but urge I others to get into the public schools, in order to place themselves In Hue ; for high school advantages. THE SCHOOLS OF MILLARD The County Superi. tendent tells of Our Educational Facilities i J When one reflects that It has been but a few ye irs since the school of Millard county were ungraded, and any pretense at systematic and uniform In-, In-, strtietloii w as lacking It must ncces-I ncces-I sarily be a source of satisfaction to all i school patrons now, to know that sys- tern and uniformity In Instruction pre- vails in all schools of the county, that the capacity and power of our public schools to make good and efficient citizens citi-zens Is greater than ever. This en viable condition is due to the splendid work of our ex-superintendent, the willingness wil-lingness of the various Bchool boards In the county to expend public money whenever the expenditure would Increase In-crease the efficiency of the school and the generous support given by all citizens citi-zens and t. ix payers to school purposes. To give the public some Idea of the condition prevailing In our county sc hools let us give some figures taken from last year's reports, according to the records of the county treasurer of Millard County: Received for school purposes during the last fiscal year, ending June 20, 1910, from the state $hi.!m;.mi, from the county, $8000. and from district taxes 121,903,31, making a total In the school revenue for last year of $10,873.1 1. This amount coming com-ing from state and county of course Is apportioned according to the school population of the various districts, hast year the school population of the county was 194."), 931 boys and 914 girls, dividing this total Into the total revenues reven-ues we get Hn annual expenditure per capita of $21. This $21 per capita goes lor the purchase of free text books, payment of teachers, construction of buildings, exiien.se of furnishing mid care of sa Nearly every district in the county lias two substantial school buildings, those built during the list few years belnjt modern ami well equipped with all modern i.ehool appliances, ap-pliances, especially with respect to heating and ventilation, and class rooms.

The idea that all a child should know about a subject in a particular year is In the text bonk used that year has no longer any adherents, and outside reading and Investigation In a!l branches Is encouraged, en-couraged, especially in h'glier grades. Fach year now. under the state law, every school bo.ird Is required to expend ex-pend a certain amount per capita rf school population for library purposes. Though there are yet a few districts In the county where the grades are mixed and all taught by the sime teacher, yet In all larger districts where school attendance will Justify the grades are separated. In order to accomplish this of course the employment employ-ment of more teachers h is been necessary, neces-sary, anil the number of teachers In the county has stendily Increased, until now in the county there are f.O teachers. teach-ers. Not only has the number of teachers teach-ers Increased, but the scholarship of teachers is better than ever. This condition con-dition Is due no doubt to some extent to the higher requirement made of teacher teach-er by the State Hoard of Kdueatlon. but due also In part to the commendable commend-able policy of most of our school boards In trying to secure the best talent consistent with the funds available avail-able for silarles. Three of the fifty teachers In the county are of college standing. 27 are graduates of recojt-niied recojt-niied normal schools. 9 have complete four years of high school work, while eVven Annm less than four years high school work.
