The North Dakota Library commits
sion and the state library are still
very much in existence, regardless Of
what may appear to the contrary in
various publications.
A recent issue of the United States
Educational Directory, dropped the
North Dakota Library commission
and the name of the secretary of the
commission, from their list of state
library commissions, putting in note
to the effect that the library commits
sion has been suspended by the state
board of regents.
This fact is true, but the state board
of regents merely assume the duties
Of the former library commission,
which passed out of existence when
the board of regents took control.

Error Corrected

Ellen Richards table quoted as
a standard upon which the house
wife might base her calculations, in
the report of Professor Candell's
lecture. published in the February
18th issue Of Newark Post, was
probably not clear to many read
ers, because of a typographical er-
ror. The figures given in the table
should have been followed by per-
cenrage mark, instead of preceded
by dollar mark. The error was
not discovered until recently, and
The Post hastens to make the cor

Newark post., 1915-03-03

The Senate amendments to the
House bill provide that the provi-
sions of the bill shall not apply to
towns of more than 500 population,
and also provide that such districts
in which majority Of the people
are opposed to a consolidation do
not have to enter the consolidation.
The original bill provides that when
a majority Of the districts wanted
to consolidate the minority districts
were compelled to join in.
Senator Wharton, at the conclu-
sion of the reading Of the bill, de-
clared the members were not fa-
miliar with the amendment and
moved that action on it be deferred
until Wednesday at 3 p. m. The
motion was lost.
DR.. Charles A. Wagner, State SUI
perintendent Of schools, was given
privilege Of the floor, and explain
ed the bill and amendments. He
stated that under the amendments
no district will have to enter the
consolidation Of districts unless a
majority Of the people in that dis
trict vote to do so. He pointed out
that no consolidation would be eff
fected until the State Board of Ed

children of six or seven years of
age would not be properly protect
ed in being conveyed to their school
in wagon driven by strange
driver, which would happen if the
children had great distance to go.
DR.. Wagner was again given the
privilege of the floor to answer the
detail just how the consolidation
would be affected, explaining that
in a majority of cases the children
would have a shorter distance to 60
instead Of longer distance.

Senator Furniss opposed the bill,
stating that the rural districts do
not want any more legislation but
are satisfied with conditions as they
are at present.
Senator Barnard declared that
the amendments answered the OBJ
Jectlons of the residents of his dis
trict, and he advocated the passage
