cent, had separate divisions (with two or more classes), while in
31 per cent, the school was undivided. In 1875, the proportion
was 39 to 61 per cent. The number of children in each class in
the country in 1895 was about 20. In the towns, the number of
classes in 1895 amounted to 2095, of which 829 were boys’ classes,
798 girls’ classes, and 468 mixed classes. Each class had on an
average 36.8 pupils.

In 1895, 97 per cent of the children in the rural districts,
who were of the legal age for instruction, were taught in the
primary school, 2.5 per cent outside the primary school, and 0.5
per cent received no instruction. In the towns, the numbers were
respectively 89, 10.1, and 0.9 per cent. In 1895, the number of
absences of children taught in the rural elementary schools, was
10.4 per cent, in the towns, 7.4 per cent. More than 10 per cent
of the total number of children attending the primary school in
the country in 1895, had to go more than 2 miles to school.
This shows, in one respect, what difficulties the primary school
has to contend with in this extensive country. For the number
of pupils and classes, see the table on page 273.

Needy children receive their school books, etc. from the
municipality. In Kristiania, of late years, the Municipal Council has also
voted the necessary funds for supplying all needy school-children
