We have also received The Educational Almanack, 1886. (National Educational
Union.) — It contains a "chronicle of educations/ events," an account of various educational societies, and a number of interesting statistics. Among these last we find some significant figures relating to Board and Voluntary schools. The cost of a child in the former is E3 Is. 10., in the latter, E1 15s. 40. If we restrict the comparison to purely educational expenses, we find that the figures stand £2 6s. 80. and El 15s. 4d. The ad.ninistration of the Board schools costs 5s. 30. per child, and the interest and repayment of loans about 13s.— The Church Worker, Vol. IV.
