Tucson Citizen School Attendance Banner in the first annual contest This banner is now the permanent possession of the Menlo Park school to be kept on display in the school tuilding as the material evidence of their splendid record for the school year just closed and as an inspiration for next year's contest But although Menlo Park wins the banner there is credit for every school in the city for there has been a marked increase in the attendance average as the result of the interest stimulated by the contest The contest can not of course eliminate hazards such as epidemics but it has been demonstrated that the average normal attendance can be increased by an appeal to the spirit of rivalry which extends not only to the pupils but to the teachers and even to school neighborhoods But the contest is more than a game or a competition for as the result of increased attendance the allotment of school money from the state is increased and the school system is made more effective A thrill of pride now pervades all Menlo Park over the school's victory there is a new neighborhood patriotism a new spirit of support among patrons for the school and for the teachers For the principal of the school has given a share of the school's credit to the people they are good people who have established permanent Americans and Arizonans the backbone of the country And there is a thrill for us too as we read the smile of pride on the faces of4the winning pupils The contest will be repeated next year for the school year 1928-1929 and annually thereafter as a permanent Citizen enterprise for the public schools of Tucson That was the idea when the contest was announced and the first contest has confirmed it The Citizen also calls attention to its Vacation Activity Essay Contest open to the grade schools of the city The paper is offering prizes totalling sixty dollars for the best essays setting forth the beneficial use of tha pupil's vacation period The period of the contest began with the closing of is the period of experience and observation the active period of the contest starts with the opening of schools in the fall and culminates on October tenth when the essays will be
