In an average group of 200 Americans observed in 1928, less than four children were born, as compared with five in 1915. In eontrast with the declining birth rate and its reaction on school enrollment, the office of education reported an oversupply of teachers, | particularly in the liberal arts group. This has led to more exacting re- | quirements for entrance to teacher- | training institutions, Enrollment in clementary schools | in 1930 was estimated at 21,370,000. Public high school enroliment was approximately 4,030,000, Pupils in private and parochial elementary and secondary schools totaled about 2,704,000. Teachers were estimated at 848,500; school houses at 254,200 School expenditures totalled 3-,-8.! - 000,000. Farmer Fights to Draw. With Big Bengal Tiger Bombay, Dec. 29 (A—XKrishna Bhama, a farmer from Daigad, was in a hospital here today, having won a moral victory over a tiger which attacked him while was plowing be- hind a team of oxen. At the first spring, Bhama thrust a sharp stick between the beast's jaws, but the tiger seized him and inflicted deep scratches. They fought for half an hour before the farmer’s cries brought neighbors, who killed the animal with axes. Binghamton Bank Loss Placed at $1,500,000 | Binghamton, N.
