School Statistics. Figures and statistics are not usually interesting reading, but a study of the Minister's of Education report for 1890, just issued, gives so much information ot various kinds, that it becomes both inter eating and instructive. We make a few extracts therefrom that may give people something to think over. The school population in Huron, between the ages of 5 and 21 years, is 15,600. In Huron 15,000 of these attended school for some time of the year, the proportion being 8,000 boys and 7,000 girls. The average attendance in Huron was 7,571, or 51 per cent ot the total attendance. In five other countries the per tentage waa as high or higher than here In Huron there are 213 teachers employ- ed, 133 male and 80 female. The idea that more female than male teachers are employed thus being erroneous. The highest salary paid being $700 ; average salary of male teachers $401; of male $279. Of the certificates held 127 are 3rd class, 81 Provincial 2nd class ; and only 3 Pro. yinoial lat class. The total receipts for Pul.lic School pur- poses in Huron, was $114,112,94 ; of this sum $74,963,99 was paid in salaries. Then comes large amounts for seats, maps re- pairs, &c. The avec age cost per pupil in this comity was $6.57, Out of 42 school districts in Ontario, the cost was higher in 31 of them thau in Huron, so that the people here have no special grounds for complaint upon this score. The average costlier pupil was higher in Brant than in any other, being $9.83• There are 4 Separate Schools in Huron, excluding Goderich, the total amount rale. ed therefor being $5,064.37 the total number of pupils in these was 222, while the average attendence was 79.
