The report terms this the “effective schooll year, and compares the 48 | states on that basis. The results of this comparson show that this state | provides 128 days of schooling for ev- { ery child of school age. In nearly & . guarter of the states the “effective school year is Jess than three months. ! As a nation, the United States has a shorter schoo] day, a sherter school week, and a shorter school year than any other highly civilized country in the world. Half a Billion a Year for Schools. . Our expenditures for public educa- tion have been more than doubled in the past ten years. Today the people of the United States spend nearly half a billion dollars a year on their public schools. The expenditure per child of school age ranges all the way from $3 in South Carciina to nearly eleven times as much, or $32, in Washington. The amount that the state has in- vested in school Buildings is an index past interest in education. In sippl the average investment per child in schoool buildings and property| is $4, while in.Massachusetts it 1s nearly 29 times as much, or $115. Connecticut Tenth on Expenditure. In current expenditure per child of school age this state takes tenth place among the 48 states, while in the aver- age value of school propefty the stand- | ing is fourth. A significant fact In | connection with this expenditure for school property is that as_a nation we ! allow our public schools to burn down it ficiency to Connecticut—On Attendance This Common- wealth Ranks Twelfth in the 48 States—High Per-, centage in Value of School Property. . st Mark on General Ef- { at the rate of more than one for every school day in the year. .« A 2 Year Elementary Course. Many states, through lack of compul- sory attendance laws, or through their non-enforcement, waste much of the! money that they expend on their schools. Some states have long school | years and short atténdance years. Theé, per cent. of attendance ranges from about 60 in Maryland and Mississipi to more than 80 in Oregon and Massa- chusetts. In this state the uverage per cent. of attendance is 77.5, which gives us a rank of 12th among the 48 com- monwealths. Connecticut’s Average Salary $561. In 18 of the 48 states the average annual wage of public, scheol teachers amotints to less than Sne dollar a day. In just five states is it more than two doliars a day. The highest average sal- ary paid in the United States is $918, in California, and the lowest is $200, in North Carolina. The rank of our states is 12th among the 48, with an average annual salary of $561 per teacher. According to this study, the average annual wage of carpenters in the Unit- ed States is about $802, of coal miners $600, of tactory workers $550, of com- o laborers $513,6 and of teachers 485. Throughout the southern states thou- sands of rural teachers earn less than $150 a year. In one New England state hundreds of teachers earn less than six dollars per week. In one county -in a Central Atlantic state the average for all teachers is $129 per year. One southern state rents its convicts to contractors at a liftle more than $400 per year, while it pays its public school teachers slightly over $300. Washington Leads. In general all-round efficiency this study places Washington first among the states of the Union, with Massa- chusetts a close second, and New York third. AIl of the states have weak points which need to be remedied. The |- object of publishing the results of this study at the present time is to bring these weak points to the attention of educators and to place in the hands of state legislators an authoritative statement of present school conditions. Coples are to be sent to every member of every state legislature convening in 1913. | GROTON LONG POINT COTTAGES ESCAPED INJURY | Beach Property of Norwich Owners Not Damaged by the Storm.

Demurrer in Bankruptcy Case Over- ruled by the United States District Court. In the United States court at Hart- ford Judge Martin of Vermont, who is sitting in Connecticut until thé vacan- cy in this court caused by Judge Platt’s resignation is filed, has oveP- ruled the demurrer filed on behalf of, George D. Howell of the MecCrum- TTowell company, following the peti- tion of certain creditors that Mr. How- ell be adjudesed bankrupt. The petition was filed last May by the Mechanics & Metal National bank of New York, the Corn Exchange bank and the Franklin National bank of Philadelphia. The claims of the peti- tioners are based on indorsements by him in conneéction with the affairs of the McCrum-Howell company and the alleged bankruptcy of Mr. Howell comes about because of an assignment of all the property of the MeCrum- Howell company which he and Lloyd G. McCrum made last March to Oscar L. Telling of Pittsburg as trustee for the benefit of creditors. The demur- rer set up that the matters alleged in the creditors’ petition were not suffi- cient in law to require Mr. Howell to answer, and in overruling it Judge Martin gives him five days in which to file an answer.
