It can be intelligent. only when the

moments assume my favorite role-—
the school mastery-1nd give you a
brict lecture on the functions or the
school board from the point of view
of a practical school crnlinlstrator?
‘jI believe that What I have to say
on this subject is in accord with
the best practice in all forward look-
ing communities. I will say nothing
that is not a. matter ct common
agreement among all students of ed.
ucational administration.
"The function at a Board of Ed-
outlet: is identical with that of a
Board of Directolu o! a business core
notation. The same principles ap-
ply in each case. It thereiore tel-
lcwe. that a school board should can-
fine itself to matters or policy and
employ a superintendent and others
to execute. It also {allow that there
should be but one executive head
to the school system and that head
should be the superintendent.
"The legal status of the school
board is such. that members 0! the
board as individuals have no more
authority in school limiters than
have cltleene oi' the community
When this.is thoroughly understood.
it should be clear to citizens, tesch~
ers and others, that it is imposing an
unfair burden upon school board
members to take to them incir trou-
bles and complaints. The school
board member who understands his
lob will reter all persons seeking
favors'or' making complaints to the
Superintendent before any action is
taken by the Board or individual
members. This not only sures val-
uable time but it inproves the etc
ncieney o: the so e and retains
for the Board the id unity and the
functions which properly belong to it

“Obviously. within the time limits
hcre imposed. I cannot develop the
general proposition I have set forth.
as to the functions of the Board in
detail. I believe. however. that with
the general principles I have men-
tloncd. thoroughly understood, de-
tailed aciion will take its proper
course.
"In outlining the intuitions of the
Board. it was necwsary to indicate
something as to the relationship of
the Board and the Superhitendent.
Here again, we have it matter too
often misunderstood. In what I have
said. I would not have you for a

The Superintendent
"That the school board as its
first responsibility must employ a
Superintendent in whom it can have
confidence is. of course. obvious.
Having done that. however. its ro-
sponsibilitics have just begun. After
all. it is not so much a question of
men as it is a question of measures.
I submit to you that any school
board which outlines. in its best mo-

which pledges itself to abide by? it.
