TO DECIDE
At Election Next Month on Free
Text Books Question.

According to the Interpretation plac-
ed upon one of The new laws by the
state superintendent of public instruc-
ton, it is the duty of the trustees of
every school district in the state to sub
nit to the electors of every district, at
the annual election Of trustees, the
question of whether or not the dis
trict shall furnish text books free of
charge to all pupils in the grades.
County Superintendent Gertrude M.
Higgins has received the following let
ter concerning the matter:
"Under the provisions of the new
text book law it is required that the
question of free text books be submitted
to vote at the regular annual school
election, on the first Saturday of April.
The law requires that notice of the reg
ular election shall be posted at least Is
days before the election, and as these
notices must contain the notice of the
submission of the free text book ques-
ton, it is very important that you at
once inform every clerk and chairman
of board OF trustees of this fact. This
is is very important, for the reason that
those districts in which the matter is
not submitted this spring will have
permitted the children to buy books be-
fore another election and therefore will
not wish to submit the matter at subse-
quent elections. Please give this mat
ter your Immediate attention.
81 suggest that you write to those
living at greatest distances first, thus
saving as much time as possible. Do
not lose any time in this matter, as
many, perhaps, wish an excuse for not
submitting the question to the voters,
and we wish to have every patron given
an opportunity to express his wishes
upon the subject. We will mail you
copy of the law just as soon as we can
possibly have the same printed.
''Trusting you will realize the very
great Importance OF prompt action in
lis matter, am, very truly yours,
''W. w. WEIGH.
superintendent OF Public Instruc-
tion.'
