MUCH COMPLAINT HEARD CHANGES IN BOOKS NOT DEEMED NECESSARY AND CALLS FOR BIG E;:f ENDITURES SOME OF THE CHANGES. Public school patrons in Richmond (1 Wayne county, when they start Kir little ones to school m Septem ber, will again experience a depress ln financial feeling, due to an edict promulgated by the state board of education making another change in the text hooks. The change embraces advanced and primary grammars, advanced and primary physiologies and spelling books. Hyde's grammar, which has been in use, will be supplanted by the Scott Kouthworth series both advanced and primary; the Jenkins physiology will give way the Indiana spelling hook to the Conn series, and School Hook company will be shelved for the Miss Georgia Alexander speller. A few years ago the Indiana School Hook company furnished practically all t ho text books in use in the public schools of the state and it was through this agency that the high trust, prices were greatly lessened. Hut educators have all along contended that, the Indiana series were not up to the standard and there has been a gradual getting away from the series until now the only text book furnished by the Indiana people is the series of readers. Eight different coi; corns now have contracts for furnishing text books. GONZAGA CLUB EVENT Lawn Fete and Musical to be Given Next Tuesday Evening The Program.
