The first week's enrollment Is given helow and compared with the enrollments of the sumo <lute lust your: Camden grammar school In t034 hud 324 enrolled; in 1035 hud 323 or I less. Laurens street school In 1034 hud 248 enrolled; in 1U35 hud 243 or 6 Jess. Pino Tree Hill school In 1034 hud 270 enrolled; in 1035 hud 273 or 3 more. Camden high school In 1034 had 201 enrolled; in 1035 hud 318 or 27 more. The total for 1034 wqs 1133 com* purcd with 1157 for 1035. It will .he noted from the above llgures that the white enrollment for the llrst week Is Just 24 'more than at Hie suine time lust year. The high school alone shows an Increase of 27. Practically every grude throughout the schools shows uA lncreuse in numbers with the exception of the first grades. In that grude the comparisons ure as follows: First grade, Camden grammar school in 1034, 101; in 1035, 87 or 14 less. First grade, l'ine Tree Hill school in 1034, 58; In 1035, 50 or 8 less. For the past several years there has been a steady decrease in the number of llrst grade pupilH which would indicate a decrease In birth rale. On the other hand for the same period there bus been a steady increase in the number of students entering the high school, which would indicate an increased interest in secondary education. A certain type of census Which has been carried oh for the past two weeks shows that there are at least lit'ty children who have not entered school. Very probably the number is considerably greater. Practically all give as their reason for not attending school the inability to purchase the necessary school hooks and clothes. Resulting from this census and from the interest of certain public-spirited people in Camden, a movement has been begun to secure necessary funds to provide books and clothing for those who are not financially able to sec.nre them. A number of organizations have joined in an effort to relieve the situation. The school itself will sponsor an entertainment on next Monday afternoon at 2:15 o'clock in the high school auditorium for the purpose of raising funds for books. The attraction is billed: Lui fling, concert violinist, operatic tenor, humorist and entertainer. The admission for children is It) cents and for adults 20 cents. The superintendent of schools urges the patrons of school district number one to enter for enrollment as quickly as possible those children who have not already entered the school. Children remaining out of school during the first part of the year are very badly handicapped in their work. A drive will be made, on the part of the teachers of the district during this week having as their Aim the enrollment of every school child in the district. The teachers will visit every home which contains children of Bchool age who have not been enrolled. The work of both students and teachers for the first two weeks has been most gratifying. Students are applying themselves to their duties with more seriousness than has been noted in several years. Camden is fortunate in having an excellent corps of teachers, most of whom have served for several years in the system. The three new members of the faculty are experienced teachers of excellent qualifications. Below is given the faculty list by schools: Camden high school?L. W.
