HIS PLACE AT STAKE.
DECISION TO-DAY IN THE CASE OF MR.
RIDENOUR.
STATE SUPERINTENDENT SKINNER. IN SPEAKING
OF THE ACT REQUIRING INSTRUCTION IN
PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE. SAYS
THAT LOCAL AUTHORITIES MUST
FURNISH TEXTBOOKS OR
THE LAW CANNOT
BE COMPLIED

Tho case ~ Mr. Ridenour principal OF School
No AZ which has been pending for some lime.
will in all probability be disposed of at to-day's
meeting OF the Board Of Education. Superin-
tendent Maxwell said yesterday that there
might be some sensational developments in the
case.
The Board viii also have before II resolution
providing for Easter vacation. Ths has
been indorsed by the Committee on Studies.
The resolution will not commit the Board to
any definite policy, but will refer the whole
question of shortening the present year to the
ioInt committees on studies and teachers.
For some time there has been strong UNDER
current OF feeling In favor Of some break in the
term from January to July g. prominent
member Of the Board OF Education is quoted as
saving that the present school year is entirely
too long and that the teachers are overworked.
This member admitted that there are many
parents who favor the keeping Of the schools
open during the entire summer season.
Superintendent Maxwell sent a letter few
days ago to State Superintendent of Public In
struction Skinner. setting forth that the Con-
troller CT Brooklyn has refused TO supply the
local Board Of Education with money TO buy
textbooks on physiology and hygiene. Mr. Max
well asked what action the State Department
would recommend the local school authorities
to take under the circumstances.
Superintendent Skinner gave out this state
ment at Albany yesterday: This department
has no power to direct the local school authori-
ties as to what they shall do under existing con-
dtions The law provides that physiology and
hygiene shall be taught in all the public schools
to all children who can read from textbooks.
Unless the local authorities can furnish these
textbooks the law cannot be complied with.
Furthermore unless these authorities can make
an affidavit that this law has been lived up to
during the present school year they will lose
their share of the public funds. which in the
case Of Brooklyn amounts TO about $425.000. I
can see no way out of the difficulty except that
the local authorities shall come to some agree
ment among themselves by which they can
cure the money needed TO purchase the text
books in question. Certainly this Department
cannot afford them any relief In the matter"
