The influence1 which the larger num
ber of school-trained children in the
Philippines will have on the political
bod of (he country is great. In no
less decree than the bo s do the girls
contribute to the general intelligence
of the country, though they do not
become voters. In that rapidly de
veloping country, a primary graduate
as soon as he becomes of age, should
possess such educational qualifications
as may enable him to meet the re
quirement for becoming a voter. In
termediate graduates should, in view
of their greater opportunity for study,
be qualified for leadership in their respective-
communities. High school
graduates, even If they do not con
tinue their studies in the university,
are educationally qualified for leader
ship in a rather broad way. The in
tluence of the public schools is even
now being felt in governmental af
fairs.
The report of the attendance of the
public' schools just after the open
ing of this school year has readied
the authorities at Washington. It
shows a very material increase over
last year. During the school ear
IJUL'-H there were graduated from the
primary course lO.'.CIS boys and 4.10L'
girls, from the intermediate course
?,.-. bos and 1 .Of.li girls; Irom the
sei ondary course L'S-l boys and fS girls.
The present year shows a total attend
ance of -;:;. f I s divided as follows, pri
mary 4f,0!:!. intermediate ::o.r,7 and
secondary l.Hlll. "It is very evident
therefore," says the Director of Kelu
cation, "that our graduations for this
sc hool year are going to be much
larger."
Due to the very excellent courses
of study provided for the pupils ot the
public schools and the thorough man
ner in which they are carried out.
this increasing number of graduates
Is having a most beneficial effect and
is certain to advance the interests
of the country, not onlyq in a govern
mental but in a material way as well.
It is estimated that the public
schools are now reac hing about one
third of the school population. There
are approximately a million cihildren of
school age not now provided with public-
school facilities. This condition is
largely due to insufficiency of funds
available for appropriation for school
purposes. For the year litlL'-Ki there
was expended from Insular, Provi
ncial and Munc-ipal funds the sum of
:?.r;U,4:!7.yi or 47 cents per capita of
total population, while in the I'nitud
States the average cost of education
per capita of population is $4.4f, al
most ten times as great.
A Rushing Episode.
Has anybody seen the big Wyoming
sombrero floating around the campus
or the wooden shoes? Don't get
frightened If you do, because what at
first appears to be Muflalo Hill's ad
vance press agent, or in the latter
case ein knabe fresh from der vader
i land, are in reality nothing but verd
ant would-be Greeks underglng chas
tisement in the preliminaries. And a
chastened bunch they are "for fair."
Presumably the second degree will
be administered as soon as the fish
ing is good in O street.
