Superintendent of Schools W. It.
Tate has liled his animal report of
schools for the school year 1914-15
with the board of education; and
from this report many interesting
facts in connection with the school
work for last year are gleaned.
The. school census for 191T shows
a total of 1413, of which 715 are
boys, and 698 are girls. The total
enrollment for 1914-15 was 945, of
which 765 were in the grades, and
180 in the high school. The enroll
ment for 1914-15 is the largest on
record, which niakes it the largest
since the school district was organiz
ed. This was due to the large in
crease in the high school, as the
grade enrollment was less in 19 lu
ll, although greater for any other
year. The average daily attendance
was 729 575 in the grades, and 154
in tliu hign school, which is also
greater than ever before. The total
disbursements for 1914-15 were $30
939.43. Cost of Schools IVr I'll i I
Cost per pupil on enrollment .$32.62
Coat per pupil, average attend
ance 4 2
Cost per pupil for books
Cost per pupil for pupils' and
teachers' supplies 1

For the purpose of comparison it
will be interesting to note thsit Ihe
cost of education per pupil on enroll
ment in Nebraska, including the
country schools, many of which are
in session much less than nine
months during (he year, is $30.11
per year and the cost per pupil on
the average daily attendance is $10.
54. Manual Training
The permanent equipment of the
shop prior to 1914-15 was $911.30.
Additional permanent equipment
amounting to $12.40 has been added,
making the present value of the per

The increased expense this year
over last year is due to the fact that
all lumber iiad to be purchased,
while last year the lumber from the
partitions built after Central tire
were used; also to the fact that forty
more students were enrolled in the
department this year than last year.

There is only one way to cure deaf

remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin

this tube is inllamed you have a rum

and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the In
flammation ran bo taken out and this
tube restored to Its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
