Single Book List.

The state board of education has de.
cided to ask for bids for supplying
books for the public schools. tho bids
to be handed in between March Is and
April Is. The bids are asked on q
single-list basis, the multiple list sys.
tenn having passed away early in the
year, when new members of the board
were chosen.
With the opening of the next school
year the change will become effective,
but there will be no effort to make the
entire change at once. The best books
now in the hands of pupils will be
used, but when new books are needed
those on the new single list will be
purchased In every instance. Mr..
Eggleston and the members of the
board will undertake to prevent the
hardship Of buying all new books at
once.
The decision for a single list was
virtually reached when terms of men,
bers of the board of education expired
and their successors chosen, the null
tiple list men going out and single list
men coming in. The people of the
State had expressed themselves in the
matter. and they demanded the single
list OF books.
Under the new order of things. books
of the same grades can be used in any
county or city in the State for the
same studies. The saving to the poo
pie of Virginia will be enormous.
