 TERRITORIAL LEGISLATURE

Bill No. 2 introduced in the House of Representatives, at Juneau, Is q joint measure drawn up by Represen- tatives Snow of Ruby. and Burns of Fairbanks. The measure provides for the establishment of a uniform school system for the Territory, and is an exact duplicate of the bill pass ed by the last legislature. and which was declared unconstitutional. Since that time Congress has passed an act enabling the Territorial legislature to pass laws for the regulation of schools in Alaska.
 The bill provides for the govern- ment of all schools except native, which are maintained by the govern- ment, by a general board of educa- tion consisting of the governor, terri toriai treasurer and an assistant su- perintendent of schools, the latter to be appointed by the Governor, with special regard to his merits. The ap- pointed official shall hold office until the regular delegate election is held in 1918, at which time an assistant superintendent to take his place shall be elected. The salary of this official ia fixed at $3.O00 per year. The bill provides that 25 per cent of all money now in the Territorial treasury and which may hereafter come in. shall te set aside for the maintenance of

TO COOPERATE
WITH TEACHERS
FRS. Earl r. Carr Starts Move
to Have Parents Assist
in School Work

Mrs. Earl y. Carr. No. III Ho-
garthavs-. has originated and put
into effect an idea which she be-
lieves will be an important link
between parents and public school
teachers.
Her plan has the Endorsement Of
Or. Charles z Chadsey and Miss
Margaret Mccullough. principal OF
he MARI school. where Mrs. Carrs
hildren are being educated.
The idea is TO have the mothers
OF the children In each grade meet
the teacher OF that grade ~ the be
ginning OF each term and be IN
structed by the teachers a. to the
course to be followed. the methods
used. with q general outline OF what
Is expected Of the pupil during that
term. This is supposed TO serve a
three-fold purpose-assist the child
with its lessons. assist the teacher
In her work with the child. and
give mothers an opportunity to be
come factor IN the school educa-
ton OF their own children.
Mrs. Carr contends that no teach
er In able 10 give individual instruc
ton. as she does not have time;
also that no teacher would be able
to understand the peculiaritiee OF
any child as its mother would; that
children's personality should BE-
taken into account and that Il IL
therefore only fair to the child and
10 the teacher for the mother 10 dc
her share.
Several mothers classes already
have been held in the MARI school
more than 200 mothers attending the
first meeting Mrs. Carr hopes this
work may extend 10 the different
schools until the parents OF chill
Gren are linked in practical way
&c the entire educational system o'
