SCHOOL BOARD
HOLDS MEETING
New Commission Convenes and
Prepares for Its
Work.

The first session of the new Commits
sion of Public Instruction, which came
into being as the result of an act pass
ed by the last Legislature, was held in
the room of the Board of Education
yesterday morning. The full member
ship of the commission was in attend
ance at the meeting-A. Z. Judd and
Mrs. May Wilcox, of Oahu; John T..
Moir and Miss. Ella II. Paris, of Ha-
waii; W. HI. Rice, of Kauai, and W.sO.
Aiken, of Maui.
There wassa disposition upon the part
of the Commissioners to question the
wisdom of the Legislature in circum-
scribing the authority of the Commits
sien so, as COMMISSIONS Rice, of Kauai,
expressed it, the members could only
growl.' -
Superintendent Babbitt, who is vest
ed with the title Of executive officer of
the Commission, stated that, in his
opinion, the Legislature had made a
serious mistake in abolishing the office
of Normal Inspector, and he presented
"a plan by which he thought that the
haRtcaps could be overcome His idea
is to have supervising principal
named, who would have authority over
all the school principals, and make
regular visits to at districts. of the
Territory
The opinion expressed by the Com
missioners was that too much author
ity has been delegated into the hands
of the County Supervisors in the mat
ter of school regulation and supervision.
superintendent Babbitt stated that
aside from the supervision over teach
ers the only authority. possessed by the
Commission was distinctly of an adj
visory nature.
A resolution was prepared and passed
providing that all teachers shall draw
up ist'of their requirements in ma
terials and supplies, and it was also
agreed that principals shall be provid-
ed with blank forms on which to make
requisitionsst to the department.
The system for the substitution of
supervising principal in place of the
Normal Inspectors will be. arranged at
January meeting.
