)NVEYANCEOF CHILDREN F

The following is a section of
? annual report of the supcrin- h
nlcnt of education that has not
t been published: h
Hut, after all, are sections where n
: white population is sparse, si
d some children would 1 e he- n

larate schools are maintained tl
r verv small groups of children. ?
eh schools are weak and 00- r<
tionahle, hut the children are h>
titled to education, and must he li

In some of those cases it may L
that the children could lie con- y<

ml school at less cost than would o'

to demand our attention. For,8*
ormation upon the feasibility Y<

Again, 1 am able to cite for 01

i some plantations the children ce

ny years before there will be of

nilies, with threechildren each, F<
1 the children of one of these io
nilies attend for only a part of of
? term. Fach 'amily is hardly ati

some of the children are too fo

It i- understood that a strong

ppointment offered him.
Those close to him and who
now of his decided pro-ex pan

To accept, he would
ave to resign his seat in the senate,
with inure than throe years
