CHEAP rEXT BOOKS.

Upon the eve Of the opening OF the
public schools the school board could
not address it's attention TO a more inn
portGut question to half the families,
whose children are pnpils Of the free
schools, than the subject Of cheaper
textbooks. only those who arc poor,

are the books used, costly,but by somo
hocus-poous OF now-iashioned educa-
tional methods they are frequently
changed, until the "free-schools" be-
como anything else but freq to those
patroaizing them.
The well-to-do citizens, whoso child
rem attend the common schools, do not

poor children who pay them. The
present system is discrimination in
favor OF booksellers and middlemen,
and against the poorest children in the
community. Certainly no school board
desires, or intends deliberately to
make such an unjust and cruel dis
elimination, and 1t has heretofore been
DONE doubtless through thoughtless-
ness and oversight.
III there are q thousand children in
attendance upon the public schools OF
Dallas, they will spend in scholastic
year from IS, O00 to $4,000 for textbooks.
The middlemen mako q profit Of at
least 40 to so per cent, and the children
pay from $4,000 to $1,000 moro than
there is any necessity for paying, or
than they ought to pay. The board,
with the pupils interests and the
best interests Of the schools upper
most in their minds, can save this 81.
COO or 5000 OF money to the POOR, by
furnishing the books direct from the
large publishing houses, at wholesale
prices. This plan is adopted in many
cities Of our size. and is found to work
admirably and most satisfactorily.
What is thus true Of school books ia
equally true Of stationery, On which
the profits, however, are yet much
larger, and tho children, 10 such
extent, the more damaged.
Hundreds Of worthy laboIing men
would be relieved by this plan, and

OF tho Dallas public, and tho school
board in particular, to this matter, and
