HIGHER GRADES FOR CHILDREN Increase in Number Seeking High School and University Education Take a group of 1,000 children now attending public schools of California in the lowest elementary grade. Of this number 855 will eventually reach the seventh grade. 260 are graduated from high school, and 50 ultimately receive college degrees. These figures were compiled by William John Cooper, United States Commissioner of Education and formerly superintendent of public instruction in California. The Increasing survival is due to a more efficient school system and a more general appreciation of education, he believes. Compared with the survivals in 1918, Cooper's figures disclose that they have steadily increased during the 10-year period. In every group of 1,000 first entering schools then, only 634 reached the eighth grade and 139 graduated from high school. Statistics also show that since 1908, survivals to the fourth year in high school also increased. Of the total number of pupils entering public schools in 1908, Cooper pointed out, 30.9 per cent survived to the fourth year in high school, 34.3 per cent in 1910, 40.3 per cent in 1915, 42.0 per cent in 1920, and 55.9 per cent in 1926. The California educator explained that a number of factors explain the increasing survival of students. "One of these is that there is more desire on the part of the average person in the United States to get as much education as possible," he said. "There has come the realization that one can't get along without it." Much of the improvement is due to better preparation of the teacher and to a wider variety of courses offered in SATURDAY and SUNDAY Gary Cooper in "A MAN FROM WYOMING" the schools, Cooper "Formerly the pr ed to reach only population for po while today the 100 per cent." he c process has come education, and tha more interested i dren through scho GOLDEN WEDDING FEATURE The Iowa Assoc California has m stage a Galden n connection with t outing at Long B day, August 9th.

"Formerly the public schools attempted to reach only 10 per cent of the population for positions of leadership, while today the attempt is to reach 100 per cent;" he continued.

Deimling, Santa Ana district manager of the Southern California Edison company, Ltd., for the last 20 years, to serve in a special advisory capacity in the commercial department of the company's general offices in Los Angeles was announced here Thursday by W. L. Frost, Edison general commercial manager. Mr. Deimling will be succeeded as district manager by R. E. Bacon, who has been assistant manager during the past year. The Santa Ana district of the Edison company includes Santa Ana, Garden Grove, Tustin, Orange, Anaheim, El Madera, Olive, Villa Park and Stanton and under the direction of Mr. Deimling has become one of the foremost of the 28 districts of the Edison system in Southern and Central California. Show Growth Mr. Deimling has been identified prominently with business affairs of the Santa Ana section since becoming district manager for the Edison company in 1910 and has been a close observer of the district's remarkable growth during the intervening years. At the close of 1910, his first year as district manager, the number of service meters in the district totaled only 2,644 and the total of electric power delivered to consumers for the year was but 3,048,504 kilowatt-hours. Mr. Deimling's report for 1930, to May 31, showed 18,572 meters in service, with a total of 14,297,325 kilowatt-hours served since January 1 of the current year. The number of kilowatt-hours served during the month of May this year was approximately the same as the total for the entire year of 1910, the reports shows. 115 In Personnel Office Figures recording Edison company business in the Santa Ana district this year illustrate the constantly growing use of electric energy for a wide variety of service. At the end of May the total of connected load for the district was approximately 70,000 horsepower, as compared with slightly more than 60,000 for the corresponding month of 1929. The number of meters in service increased 1,000 during the same twelve months.

Bees Fly Far For Honey Loos Confirming the honeybee's reputation for diligence, the United States Department of Agriculture recently learned that a bee will sometimes fly as much as 8 miles and return with its min load. Under such circumstances a single pound of honey would represent approximately 18,000 trips of 16 miles each, or nearly 300,000 miles of flight by bees. In a locality in Wyoming where it originated alfalfa is virtually the only source of honey; the department plans some hives 8 miles from the nearest nectar supply. The bees flew this distance regularly; the department culturists assume they might fly farther if necessary. Flying these 16-mile trips, however some bees fall to return home because storms overtake them or wind winds impede them. Laden with honey they are forced to rest often on a way home, particularly when flying at the wind or in cool weather. When they reach the hive after such trips they often make abnormal landings, and frequently fail to alight at the entrance of the hive. The rebellion in East India has most destroyed American export traps in that quarter, and doubtless that one of the reasons why our "American radicals and "liberals" are whooping up for Gandhi.
