TEXTBOOKS FOR PUBLIC SCHooLs.-ln relation
to this matter, which is now exciting consider
able comment the Nevada Transcript remarks =
considerable msapprehension and misrepresent-
alton has grown out of the fact that the Revised
! School Law empowers the State Board of Educa-
ton to adopt series text books for the Public
Schools. The series in was adopted
four years ago. and by its adoption parents have
been saved thousands of dollars. Before that
time every teacher had his favorite author in
each branch Of study, and every change of teach
er followed by change of books. The
State Board selected what they believed to be
the best books and every school was compelled
by law to use them Under the Revised Law,
the Board of Education was given the same pow
er as conferred by the old law. The old series was
re-adopted, without exception, and parents will be
at no additional erpense Clark's geography was
added and is intended to follow Warren's lnterme-
date, as an advance study. This book devotes a
large space to the Pacific States and Territories and
fills up a gap which is left in other text books on
this subject. No one examine the book
without being convinced of the necessity of its
adoption. No change has been will be made
in text books, and only one has been added to
those adopted under the old law. The misap-
prek ion in this city grew out of the discussion
on II late course of study, which adopted
by the State Board. This gnorantly con-
founded with the text books, when any man of
common sense should know that the course may
be studied with any series of text books. The
only object of the of study is to fix the
time when branches should be studied, and fix
the work for schools of the different grades
The State Superintendent has made no statement
during the session of the Institute, upon which
any other construction than thisscould be plac-

HoME.--The following beautiful passage is
from the pen of DR.. Guthrie -" Home To be
home is the wish of the seaman on stormy seas
and lonely watch. Home is the wish of the SOL
der, and tender visions mnge with the troubled
dreams of trench and field. Where the palm
tree waves its graceful pumes, and birds OF
ieweled luster flash and flicker from among
gorgeous flowers, the exile sits staring upon
vacancy; a PARKWAY home lies upon his heart,
and bourne on the wings of fancy over the inter
vening seas and lands, he has swept away to
home and hears the lark sing above his IA
theirs field, and sees his fair-haired boy brother,
with light foot and childhoods glee, chasing the
butterfly by his native stream.
And in his best hours, home, his sinless
home-a home with Fathers above that starry
skv-will be the wish of every Christian man.
He looks around him--the world is full of suffer-
ing: he is distressed by its sorrows and sins.
He looks within him-he finds much in his own
corruption to grieve for. In the language of
heart repealed, grieved, yexed, he often turns
his eyes upward, saying 81 would not live
always" No, not for all the gold of the world s
mines-not for all the pearls of her seas-not for
all the pleasures of her frothy cap-not for all
the crowns of her kingdoms would live always.
| Like a bird about to migrate to those sunny
lands where no Winter sheds her SHOWS, or strips
the grove, or binds the streams, he will often in
spirit, be pluming his wing for the hour of his
/ flight to glory"
