and the high school Is still In state
OF preparation, hut II is said that the re-
port to be made means an entire break
ing away from the book trust, whose
books have been in use by government
schools for years. These books are to
bc provided under contract by the gov
ernment and none of the local book deal
ers have laid in a supply.
The list so far adopted includes the fol-
following:

Supplementary Reading Hawaiian
Young People. Home and School
Classics.
Princes Arithmetic.

Rational Spelling.

The names of the publishers of these
books were not given in the report, and
were not known by Superintendent At
kinson.
Permission was given to Superintendent
Atkinson to make formal application to
| the government for land in Waialae, to
be used for an industrial school for boys.
| All the money for the building has not
been appropriated but the board hopes
| to begin work soon as possible, and
| take chances on securing the balance as
| needed. II was decided to appoint three
substitute teachers who are to report
every morning at the secretary's office,
| for which they will receive dollar per
day; and in case their services are re-
quir.d they are to get three dollars for
| each day they teach. At present there
| is great difficulty in securing substitutes
from the normal and the new plan is ex-
lpeCtcd to obviatc the difficulty.
