County Superntsndents NiII Investigate the
Standard Of Grades and Report Next Spring
The State Board of Education held
an important meeting at the State
House Thursday. President George
A. Harter, of Delaware College, pre-
siding. The Board after a prolonged
debate, decided to make no change in
the curriculum of the public schools
of this State until the annual spring
meeting, in March, 1905, which deci.
sion means that the same text books
will be used for the coming school
year. Each of the county superin-
tendents of public schools, who were
present were requested to investigate
the standard of grades now applied to
the various schools of the state with a
view to reporting to the board Just how
established grades as promulgated by
the board are now being carried into
execution. This resolution was adopted
which will be deemed rather drastic by
some of the book publishers:
''Be it resolxed, that any book pub

THE STUDY OF GERMAN IN
OAHU PREPARATORY SCHOOL

At the last meeting of the trustees
of the Oahu College, held Thursday. it
was decided to begin the study of Ger
man in the seventh grade of the Puma
hcu Preparatory School. A report was
made on the subject by President
Griffiths, who has long had it in con-
temptation but who has been awaiting
the proper conditions in the school and
subject will be elective. Students in
the seventh and eighth grades whose
parents wish them to take the subject,
and whose work is satisfactory, will be
allowed to elect German on approval
of Mr. French. No extra time will be
required outside of school hours ex-
cept for preparation; the students who
take German will take less of some
other subjects There will be no ex-
ira tuition
Miss Grau, who is a German lady
educated at the Hohere Tochterschule
at Insterburg, will teach the German
in the Preparatory School. The plan is
to complete enough German in the Pre-
paratory School to equal the first year
in German now given in the college,
and then to give four more years of
German in the college. This will make
it possible for "a student, after meet
ing the highest requirement for adj
mission to college, to take the eQuiva
lent of two years of regular college
