The following appear in Census Bulletin No. 165, but are excluded from the list of this Bureau in accordance with the plan indicated above:

TABLE 8.-Summary1 by States of school enrollment and attendance in cities and villages containing over 4,000 inhabitants.

In the preparation of these summaries omissions and deficiencies in the returns of individual cities were supplied from the best sources available. If no accurate information could be had in any particular case, an estimate based upon the ratios developed in the other cities of the same State was used unless it appeared that the conditions were essentially different in the city for which precise data were lacking.

Blanks in the tables indicate that the number of cities which reported the item was not sufficient to justify an assumption of approximate correctness in an estimate for the deficiency.
