Schools.
1t will take many thousands of books
to supply the demand throughout the
State. The publishing houses are not
yet able to supply the demand and pu-
pills and parents are requested not to buy
any books yet but use old ones until ad-
vised that the books adopted are in stock
by the merchants. Due notice of this
will be given. State Supt. Hamlet has
announced that he will prepare a bule-
tin Immediately instructing school au-
thorities and patrons of the schools ex-
actly what they must do. Old books
heretofore in use in the common schools
may be exchanged for the new adoptions
at 80 per cent of the cost of the new
books.
