to pay teachers’ salaries,
than a quarter of a million dol^
lars was spent in new equipment,
and a tidy balance of $1,144,367
was carried forward into next
year.
While in the aggregate the
sum devoted to the payment of
teachers’ salaries appears to be
large, when it is divided among
the 9,834 educators in the com
mon schools of the state, it is
found that the average salary
received amounts to but $301.63,
in earning which, each teacher
had to hold school on an average
of 114 days.
The pupils who received in
struction numbered 404,760, out
of a total population of school
age amounting to 585,749.
These figures seem to indicate
that some 80,000 children in Ar
kansas are not receiving any
schooling, but it is explained by
the Bureau of Education that
for the purposes of the statistics
the “population of school age”
includes everyone between six
and 21, with the result that
many wage-earners and married
women who have long since left
school are counted in. As a
matter of fact, it is noted by the
Bureau, the Arkansas Legisla
ture of 1911 brought sixteen ad
litional counties under the pro
visions of the Compulsory
School Attendance Law.
