Own to • Bulletin (cued by Certain'
. ad 8tattstice OSca. The statlstl^s
Mee based on beformatlon collected by
Se enumerators for the year prior to
dbaking of the last census. and
how that the total number of per-
Ifo.a between the ages of six and
t wenty at that date, was 1141,909. of
Me= 1,101,779, or 64.12 per cent.,

pals amber, only 44.92 per cent. were
St school for more than six mont:1s
fl the year, and only 62.61 per cert.
attended school for any length of time.
'these figures do not seem very
creditable or very promising at first
Mgbt, but further examination par-
tially accounts for the low percentage
et sobool. The steeliest numbers are
of children at the age of fie*, which
sunny people think la too young for
beginning school unless a kindergar-
ten is available, and of boys and girls
over fifteen, when the public school
coarse Is in most cases completed.
The largest attendance is between
Mus ages of seven and fourteen. at
which period 931,4$4 children. or
71,63 per cent., attended school. but
at these only 69.68 per cent. attended
for more than six months in the year.
The proportions of boys and girls
attending school In Canada are fairly
*pat at most age periods, the girls
hieing in the"majority between the
yep of fifteen and twenty. thus In-
dicating that more girls than boys
oe to High Sohooh.. Between the
ages of twenty-one and twenty -tour,
the figures are 4,073 males and 1,741
temates. PIobably this 1a due to the
tact that mon young men enter col-
lege tor the professions; also to some
'eases young men who have had their
Iowa way to make In the world man-
age to go to school tor a part of the
pear to obtain 'a belated education.
notieea that the proportions of
'boys and girls attending school are
more nearly equal In the Canadian -
born population than In the foreign -
born. In the latter, the boys are la
iSTceas except at the five-year age
period.
Viewing the figures In the negative,
the atattstics show that of the total
number of children between seven and
fourteen, the Province of Ontario had
lta7 children of every 1,00') whn were
not attending school; Quebec had 190
per 1,009, New Brunswick 290. Nova
Scotia 171, and Prince Edward Island
164, whose education had apparently
been neglected in the year the cen-
sus was taken: The numbers not. re•
sported 's attending school were pro-
portionately larger In the Western
Provinces. but this does not by any
means indicate that opportunities for
educatlhn are not valued in those
provinces. On the contrary, new
schools are ppened up ev •ry week to
the year. But the rireumstancc.; of
settlement in a new country. par-
ticularly whn❑ settlers have to take
up homesteads In remote districts,
make It Impossible sometimes to send
the children to school. at least for
"mule years until more settlers come in.
. • 'As might be expected, the attend-
ance was proportionately larger las
the eines and towns than In the corm -
Cry Metric-tn. The children of immi-
grants from foreign countries "bow
the smallest percentage attending
school, only 414.19 per rent. for o'fe'r
six months in the year.
