IDAHO SYSTEM UNIQUE,

4 Not all Idaho citizens know tha
within the last four years they hay
themselves voted for and initiate
an absolutely unique form Of STAT.
school administration. Nevertheless
this is the case. The Idaho System
differs from all others in it's com
plete unity of the school affairs o.
the State, from the primary grades
70 the University, which are under
the supervision of one single State
Board Of Education. This Board, IN
the first place, acts as governing
board for the six State educational
institutions, including the Universe
ty, the two State Normal Schools,
the Idaho Technical Institute at
Pocatello. the Industrial Training
School and the State School for the
Deaf and Blind. This same Board
exercises general supervision over
the public elementary and High
Schools.
LEGISLATURE fAND
PEOPLE ACTED
This new plan was passed upon
most thoroughly by the people Of
the State. Their representative in
the Legislature of 1911 proposed a.
constitutional amendment providing
for a single State Board of Educa-
ticn to supervise both State insti-
tutions and the public schools; the
people OF this State passed this
amendment by sweeping vo.e in
November 1912; the Legislature of
1913 in obedience to this amend
ment passed the law providing for
the present State Board Of Educa-
lion.
A BIG TASK FOR ONE BOARD. |
In April 1918 this new Sta e
Board of Education, consisting CT
i've members appointed by the |
Governor, and one e1-offlcio meh-
Der, the State Superintendent, as
'umed the great and burdensame
ask OF directing the affairs of the
ix state Institutions and superin-
ending the public schools OF the
'tafe. In this way they were charL1
d by the Law with duties which
lad previously been distributed
mong six separate boards. The ap-
'ointed members of the new State
'card OF Education are all business
zen with duties and responsible
les cf their own-probably consider
bly, heavier than those Of the aver
ge citizen. Nevertheless, during
he first year of the Boards work,

their valuable fixtures and expensive

part of the second story Of the

could be removed.
The buildings adjoining the Creigh-
ton building on the south, being
separated by only a hallway, are
owned by Messrs. Thrston and
Creighton and the local Odd Fellows
lodge. Their destruction, which for
time seemed imminent, would
have entailed great loss and would
have been serious blow to the
business interests of the city.
So far as possible to ascertain,
insurance was carried as follows: c.
A. Smith, on two7story frame build
ing, $1,000; Elizabeth Hutchison, on
two-story frame building, $500; c.
F. Teffts, on restaurant furniture
and fixtures, $1,000; Frank Creigh-

A fire which broke out little
after midnight Sunday in the two
story frome building occupied by
Tefft's restaurant, speedily swept
away that and the building to the

The Airshjp in Astronomy.

Early last summer, Professor Todd,
the Amherst college astronomer, and
his wife, who shares with him the en-
viable reputation he has gained in the
science, departed for Russia on mis-
sion that was somewhat original. Pro-
fessor Todd proposed to study the
August eclipse Of the sun in It's total
ity at height from which the phe-
nomenon had never been previously
observed, by means Of an alrship. In
that way no believed he could over
come the obstructive influences OF the
atmosphere and reach new and more
definite conclusions. The enterprise
has itself been eclipsed by the war,
but word has oeen received from him
that he will shortly arrive In this
country and that he has been fairly
successful. There Will be much inter,
est in scientific circles to know Just
how much this may mean. He would
hardly use the term unless he believed
that he was able tt ada something to
the sum Of human knowledge on the
subject OF eclipses. II his program
was carried out Us he arranged 1t, It
