minimum term. at the minimum rate
of levy, which is zoe on the 500
valuation of taxable property. This
sum is set aside from the general
school fund, and means the main
tenance Of good schools in those less
fortunate districts.
Another progressive feature in the
bill is the creating of state board of
education, who shall perform the du-
ties heretofore performed by the state
board of examiners. and in addition
thereto prescribe courses Of study for
the different graSes of schools in the
state. look for much good to result
from the appointment Of the board,
because it will help to unity the
work in the state.
THE bill further provides that No.
l certificates can be renewed for
a period of five years, and teachers
in district schools are not required to
take an examination in general his
tory and bookkeeping. 1t further
provides for the establishment Of
graded and high schools in towns
and villages where there ore from
two to four rooms In the same build
ing, provided such schools can be
carried on by the maximum levy.
Recognition of school Libraries is al
so made. Heretofore what has been
done has resulted from efforts Of
teachers and the pupils. However,
the teachers and pupils have raised
100000 volumes through their ef-
forts, but now the boards Of edu-
cation may contribute $40 a year
toward libraries. This, is a feature
that will grow rapidly. The compul-
sorry attendance law is also made
more effective and truant officers
must be appointed The uniform ex-
animation system has been improved
in several respects by making the re,
quirements more definite
Altogether, I can say that this
special session of the legislature has
passed the best school laws ever plac-
ed in tie West Virginia statutes, and
West Virginia has placed herself
alongside the most progressive of the
so-called educational states of the
Union, because these are advanced
steps. The new law will become ef-
fectiye May. So"

perintendent Of Free Schools
Talks About School Law.

State Superintendent Thomas C.
Miller, who has been largely instru-
mental in the revision of the educu-
tional laws, says
There has been demand for a
revision Of the school laws for many
years, because there have been 20
many contradictions and antiquities
in the old law that It was difficult
to gather the meaning of many sec
tions ana provisions which were very
important TO the success Of the
school. With the object Of eliminate
ing these Inconsistencies by a com
plete revision of the school laws |
suggested to the governor two years
ago the appointment Of a commission
to revise chapter 45 OF the code, ana
the governor, believing 1t to be an
excellent plan, appointed ]. r. Trot-
ter Il. l., Butcher, u. S. Morga i,
three ex-state superintendent, for
mer state senator Harvey w. Harmer,
former state senator c. Il. Carrlgan,
and L. w, Burns, with myself, as the
commission to revise the chapter.
THE commission worked faithfully
for quite long time on such re-
vision and submitted to the legislature
of 1907 bill embracing their ideas,
which was favorably considered, but
on account Of the length of the ses-
sion and other important matters,
receiving their attention, 1t was not
passed. The governor then includ-
ed the revision in his call for the
special session. The bill was taken
up by the educational committees
and the measure passed practically
on the basis recommended by the
commission, although number OF
minor changes were made.
THE best feature of the bill Is the
proper codifcation of the school law.
Various provisions relating to the
same general subject are properly ar
ticuated and not scattered through
various sections, US under the ola
law,
Among the progressive steps for
better educational conditions are the
provisions for the consolidation Of
the schools, thus allowing district
boards of education to eliminate
small schools ard provide for the
transportation Of the pupils to ar
other school. such as is done in Ohio
and other states, and the provision
being optional and not mandatory
with the boards OF education. The
district supervision of schools mean
that a district superintendent, with
the pay of teacher, may be appoint
ed to look after the schools in his dis
trict. The salaries Of the teachers
have been increased, the minimum
salaries being fixed at $40, 80 and $50
for No, l. and Q certificates. A
supplementary fund of $4,000 Is
set aside under the provisions of the
new law to aid districts not able to
