1t is not expected that any district will
make sweeping changes in textbooks at
once, but il is earnestly recommended that
they be made in accordance with the iorego-
ing recommendations and that the adopiions
be made as The circumstance and needs Of
the several districts may require.
County uniformity which is 50 much de-
sired can be secured in a very few years, but
only by the united and harmonious action
Of all the boards of the county. Not only
are marterial advantages secured for intro
ducing new books, but it VIII also be clearly
evident by a comparison Of the prices herein
guaranteed with those now paid fol school
books in the county, that there will be In
actual saving OF from 20 to 20 per cent to
those who buy the books.
Respectfully submitted.
