TO CHANGE READERS.
Effort Being Made to Part With
McGuffey.s
Baldwin or tyr may be substituted
American and CHM Representatives
in the City-0ld Reader has Been
Used 35 Years.

A movement is on foot to change
the readers used in the public schools
OF the city. As usual in such cases,
the two big rival book companies, The
American Book Company and CHM
and Company are more interested in
the change than any one else. Repre-
sentatives of the companies were here
last week TO appear before the School
Board, but no quorum was present.
They came back again last night, and
appeared before the board at its re-
gular meeting.
A. j. Wilkinson, Of Grafton repre-
seuus the American Book Company,
and a. f. Wilmoth, of Elkins, CHM
and Company Mr.. Wilkinson wants
to substitute the Baldwin readers for
those now in use, and Mr.. Wilmoth
is pushing the claims Of the Cyr read
err, or the Jones reader which has
just been issued by CHM and Compa-
ny.
McGuffeys readers have been In
use in Morgantown for thirty or thirty
five years. The children of today are
using a revised edition Of the books
used by their parents. The new
readers are said to be very fine and
to have much to recommend them.
The Board has not yet decided on
which Of the new books will be adopt
ed. They have not even decided to
part with the old one. 1t is very
probable, however, that change will
be made, now that the question is
being agitated.
