3f the legislature. The survey commission, as appointed by Governor Warren T. Me--ray. early ln 19:31. is composed of iSyron Vomers, Fort Wayne; Vil:tam Schanlaub, 'ventiand; Caroline ShoTiaker, Lafayette; J. ,. Van O.-ulol, Anderson, and C. M. Curry, Terra Haute. The commission was aided 33' the General induration Hoard, of -Vew York. The present report of the commission comprises ten chapters, a-hich deal with the basic troiibbs Df the educational system of tie State, with soma few recommendaMona for remedy. A second volume, to be made public soon, wi'.l contain more specific recommendations for vievatinqr the educational wurli i' :he Ptate. I'robaly the outstanding chapters in the report made public today are tlms'i decilins with teacher :ra!nlng- and local and Stato administration. The State Is not playii.jf fair with 575, 000 school chlldr 'it in- the rural elementary schools and small town hiph schools, according to chars: cs .nade by the c. mn.l.sslon. tUamlu-d tests civen more than lli.ooo school thildren. to tarry out the purposes f the survey. show that in the rural communities of the State, the flementary pupils are receiving an equivalent of only six years' education and city school pupils only seven years' education. in their tiffht years of elementary scimo! attendance. These fijtures are the result of tests given the elementary students in fundamental subjects, such as rtadingr, spelling-, arithmetic and h i s t o ry . Similar tota in higrh school work show that tho pupll3 ln the higher schoolr lie i-.-crivir.s-. In their four years' work, rducatlm ranging from the mentality of a fou-th-year hiph school pupii. The f-st revealed that the education siven in the Indiana hi Ah schools is extremely wea as compared to other r.orth central t-ta'.-s of the Union.

(ni-r anions: trio reasons. the commission believes, why Indiana maintains such a low average in flementary and hijjh school work. i.s the method and amount of training given r''spectlvo teachers in the t achcr training institutions of the State. School officials throughout the State, the commission believes, have been prone to neglect the elementary schools in order to maintain a standard in the smaller hich schools that would eliminate possibility of loss of the lii.ah school commission. Special mention i3 made by the commission of the lack of proper training- of teachers at the State normal school at Torre Haute, i-'ince l'.05, the report says, the, State normal school has devoted too much stress on the training of. hih school teachers and collecriate work, to the ne.elect of training of . lementary instructors. The same fault is found with the Indiana univ rsity training of high school teachers, but a practically clean bill

is driven Purdue university in its I (minim? of vocational instructors. j In dealing with high school in- : -truetion in the State, the report! -ays that in Indiana, the g-eneral 'c-ve-l of instruction in the small high schools lower than in most i northern an i eastern states. The j

lault tor this condition is laid at the door of poorly prepared and inxperienced teachers. Although the g-enernl condition of school houses In the State is said to be improving, yet there are t: . one-room, on-.-u a- ;. i- ijuildir.ga remaining, which are condemned by the commission.. To improve the building operations of schoolhouses. the commission makes the following recommendation : "To guard against waste of

public money end against excessive ! expenditure on schoolhouses and to guarantee tiiat all new school- '.

bouses meet reasonable schoolho requirements, educational as well as sanitary r.r.d hygienic, the p;-es-t-r.t work of the Stetc board o; he-alth a::d th-. State board of accounts should be supplemented by n division of schoroiiou.se planr.lng In the State department of education, with final authority to pass on schoolhouso plans. A division of this kind would cot only about 110.000 a year." Iti speaking Qt -vocational education in the schools of the State the commission declares too much money is being spent on "approved"

vocational education as now or

ganized and administered. Vocat

a! education, the commission says, should be an integral part of t'opublic school system. and the BUILD UP YOUR VIGOR FOR WINTER IN the fall your bloexi is thin and your vitality low.

Crown Prince Abdul Mcdjid hcendi, new caliph, and his daughter.

Crown Prince Abdul Medjid EfTendi, cousin of Sultan MchamTied VI. ha? been elected caliph by the Turkish Nationalist government, nr.

i cording to recent dispatches from Angora. The election followed tho

; oecision or Kemai 1 asha and his followers to separate the sultan : fjom the caliphate. The new caliph is liftv.

amount of money spent on it at any -iiven time rliottKi be decided with due regard o th- needs of all ... forms of public education. Vocational education Is important, says the commission, yet the school authorities should not teach this form of education to the n-glect of -duration that would lend aid to better citizenship, such as English, spelling, history, etc. Township, trustees would tie bereft of all present duties with the exception of school affairs, under the recommendations of the commission, in its treatment of local administration of school affairs. The commission would delegate all civil duties of the trustee to the county commissioners, inasmuch as they now practically control the actions of the truitco in tho building of roads, bridges and treatment of Die towns-hip poor. Immense fault is found with the p-r. sent method of handling school business by the trusters, especinlly in the construction of school buildings and hiring of teachers. Th. office of the county superintendent -or"s 'n 'o- r: :. i. also, through its being closely allied, along w i that of the township trustee, wi: politics. Too oft. ii. the report says, the superintendent or trustee is selected wholly because of past party service, and. after elected, is controlled, ln many instances by partisan politicians.

Fault is found also with the i

method of purchase of school equipment there 'being 1,017 trustees in the State, each purchasing the supplies for his particular township. At most, the report declares, there should be only 92 purchasing aeni the t'2 county superintendents of The commission also advocates the abolition of school towns and their union with the township in . or. sol 1 d a t ed schools.

Kliminatlon of waste in hiring of Inexperienced and

properly trained teachers, the commission says, would result in a

saving that would afford five salary schedule for

instructors. To remedy the defects in the citv school systems, the commission favors ndop-ion of a city school code, applicable to all cities. A great fault in the State board of education, as the present law s provide for its organization, lies in the fact that not enough laymen are represented on the hoard, and special interests. siivh as tho hlehe-eb:-atlonal institutions of the Stat-.
