that the board would certainly fight
the state adoption school book law as
the charter specifically states that the

IL appears that the board members
are prone to continue the use OF the
books in the schools now, and rather
than jeopardize the progress Of the
schools. will keep the books now be-
ing studied unless Compelled to Ao-
cept the state list.
County Superintendent Ragsdale
wants the board members to accept
the state adoption as il will then en-
able the county to use the same books
which will enable pupils in the coun.
~ to get them cheaper. He is some
what discouraged over the outlook.
