day afternoon with the members and friends OF the

fore One hundred and ffty-one new classrooms

The committee appointed by G.. A. r. Commander
Graham to examine the histories in use in the
State so far they relate to the Civil War, re-
ports that of those in general use give cor

written. giving a brief truthful and impartial ac-
count OF the main facts for in the schools. 1t
also suggests that the suftciency and adaptablty
OF a school history should be under the control or
