Report Of State Superintendent.

In the biennial report given out
by State Superintendent Stock
we'll, the following improvements
were offered:
Election of county and state
superintendent be removed from
partisan politics.
2.-State aid be granted to rural
and small graded schools which
maintain high standard.
3.-More effective supervision
Of the rural schools be secured
thru the provision for district or
deputy county superintendents.
There should be supervisor over
every fifty rurals schools.
4.-The school term required by
law should be increased from six
to eight months without delay.
"a state agent or truancy Of
ficer be provided for the purpose
of enforcing compulsory attend
ance law. That an adequate and
enlightened child labor law be en-
acted.
6.-No school building shall be
erected in the future which does
not meet certain approved condi-
relative to school hygiene and
sanitation.
IA normal school be esta-'
blished without undue delay at
Minot. That the present social.
ed Normal and Industrial echool
at Glendale be given legally full
normal school functions. That
provision be made in the not dis
tant future for normal school for
the Missouri Slope. That our
laws he so changed as to admit of
the establishment OF county nor
NAL schools.
g.. No district ought to receive
more money from state and county
tuition fund than it is willing to
raise by taxation. Support of
schools without reasonable local
taxation means the pauperizing of
our schools.
8. A state board Of regents or
educational board Of control be
provided for the business manage
ment Of all state educational in
stitufions.
10. Another field deputy 10
