It is like the river described by Caesar in his Commentaries, which flows so slowly and smoothly that it was difficult to tell in which direction it was moving. Ihe only way to get a clear conception of the movement is to take a section extending over a longer period of time than can be seen by actual observation, and compare the extremes of this peri od. The decade is a favorite meas ure with us in comparisons of this kind, so I will give the school sta tistics of to-day ccontrasted with the year 1902 3-1912-13: 1902-3 White..
