for the schools under their charge. or change
old ones, and that is between the time of
clccting teachers and the opening of the
schools. Section 23, Act of VI, Y /, 1854, says ::
That Immediately after the annual election
Of teachers in each school district of the state.
and before the opening Of Che schools for the
ensuing term, there shall be Il meeting of the
directors or controllers and teachers of each
district; at which meeting The directors or
controllers shall decide upon q series of school
books, in The different branches to be taughr
during the ensuing school year; which books,
and no other, shall be- used in the schools Of
the district during said period"
Such is the law, with this exception, that
books cannot now be changed more frequent

The Loyal Sock coal grows in favor as its
good qualities become known. There are
many good reasons why this coal should take
the lead, as it does in this market; it burns
more freely, retains fire longer and is sold
much cheaper than the Wyoming anthracite
coal. Mr.. MALLORY, who is agent for the
Loyal Sock, very considerably keeps the
price down, fact which should be appreci-
ated by consumers.
