DISPATCH * The Y'onngsville Periscope A glimpse at the financial 1ob3 to our school due to the absence of stu dents reveals the fact that a real tragedy Is being enacted. The school Is being maintained by the hard-earn ed taxes of the people for the educa tion of their children, and yet they will allow this money to be spent without taking advantage of what they pay for. The amount of $414.75 has already been ?nent for the benefit of ing this school year. This cost for the keep of the building, teachers, janitor and trucks has been spent for children who have not come to reap their, due benefits, and yet the ex pense must go on in anticipation of their coming. It is a case of plac ing the advantages here for them to enjoy at their will. One wonders why folks will pass up what they pay for and what they need so much. Aside from the loss to the absent students, consider the advantage if every child would attend school ev ery day. If the 2765 absent ones had come to school our average daily at tendance would have been increased thirty-five. This added to our at tendance of 392 would give us 427. With this possible average Youiigs ville. school could haye fhrse olagr teachers valued at $3000.00 per year. TJth t&e addition of teachars ifie standard and efficiency of oilr school system would be greatly increased. Patrons, will you look and see how your money Is going and what it could'jaean to the educational life of your child? Students, will you con rider what you mean to"ybuj- school :n profit and loss as well as to your own profit and loss?
