The use of larger buses has made it possible to combine small loads at Cameron, Carthage, Glendon, Horshoe and othsr districts, thereby reducing the num ber of buses in operation from 35 to 31, and elinaftnating almost a dozen second and third loads. The great in crease in the number of children ac comodated by first loads has contrib uted to economy of time for the pu pils and simplified supervision and ad ministration for the principals, while the anxiety of parents over the long absence of their children from home caused by waitng for buses, has been greatly relieved. In 1928-29 the to tal expenditure for the six months term for transportation of 1346 rural school children was $21,517.63 or $1?6.03 per capita, compared with an expenditure of $23,750.00 for the transportation of 1623 children at a per capita cost of $14.63 in 1930-31.
