fore the next meeting and that every-
thing be ready fer immediate action
when the time came.
It was figured last night by Super-
intendent Buchanan that the new
books needed would cost only $700.
but that the renewals would reach
over $5, 000.
The report 011 the books rendered
by the superintendent was as follws:
Superintendent's June Report
To the zBoard of Education,
Norwalk, Conn.
Gentlemen: We have a number of
sues, some dating back of 1900. In a
few cases I am commending changes.
The number of new books to be
bought in case we do not change
texts is about as large as will be re-
Quired of a new publication, either be-
cause the old ones are so nearly all
worn out Or can be shifted to another
grade in cases where the same text-
book is used through two or more
grades. in all cases where changes
of texts are commended. the old texts
were dropped more than five years
ago.
Last year we adopted], the. Every
Day Arithmetic, published by Hinds.
Hayden & Eldridge for use in the
third grade and its use has given such
exceptional satisfaction that I wish
to commend the adoption of the book»
lets of the same series for the fourth
and fifth grades.
The Aldlne Readers in our first
and second grades are of an old edi-
tion. no longtr published, and a gene.
ly number or them should be replaced
by the revised editions and the Old
books of best 'physlcal condition
should be continued in use in part or
'the buildings. This will cast no
more than to equip our schools with a
sufficient number of the old edition
to replace the woruout books.
I wish to advise that enough lan
grunge books of the series known as
\ital English published by Amhxose
& (‘11., be adopted and placed in ccxtaln
fourth, fifth sixth, sevncnth and
eighth grade ’classes to neutralize the
worn out copies of the Emerson &
Bender books aw in use
The principals of the junior high
schools ask for Board and Bogl‘ey's
United States History for use in suf-
ficient classes to take the place of the
worn out books of that grade. They
also ask for the new Junior high
school mathematics series by the

out books now in use. They also ask
for the adoption of the little classic
booklet—«Scott's Quentin Durward
published by Henry Holt & (‘11., to
meet the college entrance require-
ments. .
I, believe these texts are well
selected and that you will serve the
schools well by their; adoption.

glad to commend.

Also the classic “House of Seven
Gables" needed to meet the college

Also the classic “Schrab and Rus-

The adoption of these new publica'
tlons will cost but little more money
than would be necessary to replace
worn out texts wtih copies or thé old
editions and wiIl enable us to take a
step toward the proper equipment of
our pupils with up-tO-date texts.
Some othtr books are in need 01’
replacement by later series, the elcL

example but I believe it will be well
to await the coming new editions of
these branches.

‘ School to Start September 7th.
It was recommended last night by
Mr. Buchanan that school start on

Christmas vacation on Friday, Decem-
ber 24 for two weeks
“\Iy reason for this " the superin-
tendent said. "is because those weeks
are some of the coldest weeks of the
year. and a long vacation will give
us time to have the children in
school in pleasant weather. and they

At first the members did not seem

A committee composed of Jesse

w Coal Supply Adequate
, Chairman Miller. who was on a
committee to provide fuel for the
schools reported last night that there
was a good supply of coal on hand at
the district schools and that those
that could hold any more would in all
probability be fixed well also He
recommended that the board contract
now for coal necessary. rather than
wait until the appropriation came.
The report was accepted as progress
after Miller had‘ slated that there was
also a good supply of wood on hand.
Milling Machine on Way.
A milling machine for the manual
training room was reported to be on
the way by Dr. Shel-er who stated
that they were receixing them at a
bargain from the government which
is highly in favor of the training for
school children.
