Ex < t figures for the scholastic year ending June 30 11103 were not obtainable owing to the absence of anything I ke an accurate report this year from Marion county, but an estimate was made that will come very near being correct. The tot.?l enrollment, for the year shows a very large increase, but the ne- j grot's show a larger attendance ! than the whites by a large major- | jty. The enrollment estiinitiug Marion for the year amounted to 286,892. of wli eh the whites wero 138,076 and the u ?lored 153 816 The figur*'* for It>62 ar- also an estimate as there* was no report j from Marion and none from B-an* ' fort, but averages were tnrde from both of these nnd the total was ?43 400 of which 12 \1)95 were whites and 130,465 colore ?.
