Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty-Fourth Annual Report of the American Madura Mission, 1868 The Village schools were never more hopeful. We now have 21 schools containing 380 pupils, being a gain on last year of 46 pupils. Our highest number in any one school is 32. The average is 185 Nine schools have over 20 each. Seven of the schools are taught by females, and 37 of the pupils are girls, all but four of whom are from Christian families. In most of the schools we have introduced uniform school registers with great advantage, but a still greater benefit has been the appointing of a school superintend ent, who has examined the schools and reported on them monthly. We have begun to collect fees from the pupils, usually in the shape of charity money, which, in two cases, has amounted to one-fourth of the teachers' wages.
