end. That the system of taxation be
entirely changed The present taxes
are based upon the rental value of the
land. This system was inausuratcd
III 1890, and has been in vogue ever
since. From a school point OF view,
1t is eminently unfair It exemprs
from taxation the land that has an ac-
tual but not necessarily a rental value.
For example a member OF the COM
mission cited an instance in the State
where a very large tract of land that
had been thrown out of cultivation
and was growing up into timber was
entirely exempt from taxation. be-
cause it had no rental value On the
other hand, the owners Of this estate
refused to sell it for less than $25,ooo.
1t viii be readily seen that by basing
the tax upon actual valuation of the
land much more money will be raised
that could be devoted to school pur-
poses. This would have the result, OF
course. OF increasing the efficiency OF
our schools.
3rd 1t seems best in the opinion OF
the commission that the County Sup
erintendent of Schools should have
more authority than he is allowed to
exercise under present conditions, The
purpose of this is to give the County
Superintendent the power to compel
school commissioners to rectify certain
abuses in regard to school buildings
so far as comfort, light, heat, and saili-
tatlon are concerned.
The commission also recommends
that the State Board of Education be
made more permanent body.
Another suggestion of the commits.
sion which will be OF interest to New
ark people is the one pertaining to
the higher education OF young women
of the State. After giving the matter
considerable time and thought the
commission realizes that the educa-
tiona' forces OF the State are badly
handicapped without a State normal
School, and the commission is ready
to recommend that a normal school
be established in connection with and
part of Delaware College.
In this way it was thought that
Delaware could train its own teachers
and the result would be much more
satisfactory than under the present
system where a certain few are sent
to Pennsylvania or Maryland to be
trained in the normal schools of those
States. 1t is not the intention of the
commission to suggest that the pro-
vision for the higher training OF wo-
men should be confined to the normal
school work, but that the State would
also provide instruction in Domestic
Science and other subjects that are
especially required TO prepare women
for their natural careers.
1t is hoped that these recommends
tons will appeal to all who are inter-
ested III the welfare of our schools,
and that the required legislation will
be enacted without much opposition
during the coming session.

BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETS
WITH SCHOOL COMMISSION
Recommendations To Be Made To Next Legisla-
ture--f1enN Ridgely Makes Good
Suggestions

Al the last session OF the Legislature
the Governor appointed commission
to make q special study of the school
laws of the State, and to make definite
recommendations i'll regard 10 their
Improvement This commission is
composed of Charles Moore, OF
Gcorgeto vn, chairman, Mr. Fred Bra
dy, of Middletown, and Col. Theo.
Townsend, Of Milford, secretary. 1t
has had number of meetings. col
lected a considerable amount OF data
i'll this and other States, and will pre-
sent its findings to the legislature as
soon as it convenes.
Last week the commission held a
OF Education. Shortly after the meet
ing was called to order, MIR. Henry
Ridgeiy, than whom there is no one
more interested in our public schools,
appeared before the meeting and ask
ed for a hearing. The chairman of
the meeting stated that Mr.. Ridgely
is the only man or woman in the
State who has manifested sufficient
interest to voluntarily come before
the commission and ask to be heard.
Among the suggestions made by Mr..
Ridgely were the following:
That some effort be made to en-
courage reading OF standard litera-
ture upon the part of the public school
teachers. He stated that he found in
his experience as school commissioner
that great many teachers felt that
their education wac complete when
they left the doors OF the Normal
School or High Schot \, and made
practically no effort to continue their
education by a well defined course OF
reading.
Mr.. Ridgely also urged that the
commission find some way to make it
possible to pay the teachers better
salaries, and thus encourage a more
thorough and efficient preparation on
the part OF the teachers for their
work
lie further suggested that, owing
to the complex nature OF the school
situation, the commission obtain the
services OF a school expert to go into
the matter with them as thoroughly as
may be ,ald assist them in solving
some OF the problems with whicn
they are confronted.
The suggestions OF Mr.. Ridgely
were cordially received by the com
mission, and some time was spent in a
further discussion of them.
Among the conclusions that have
bS>l reached by the commission, the
following, perhaps, are the most inn
portant, and should be of consider
able interest to readers OF the POST
Ist. That the school tax be collect
ed by the county collector, rather
than by special collector appointed
for this purpose. 1t has been stated
that i'll one of the counties it costs
$4,000 year to collect the school
taxes. 1t is thought the work could
be done more thoroughly and much
more economicallv by the regularly
