Dillingham;.

as to the work of the board OF edu-

on the board he thought 1T better to
have the whole board take up every
thing. The latter plan worked fairly
we'll said Mr.. Larner. except that
there was so much to do that 1T made
a big docket. The witness said he
had come to believe the board was
too large to act as a committee of
the whole. s....-..
1T is something liketthe Senate in

Senator Dillingham;. :
"Yes. sir. and the members are all

When the witness suggested that
the Senate should ratify appointments

The witness said that he had not
known Mr.. Thurston until he was Sc

form his opinion Of him before voting
for him by a first interview and by
what the other members of the board
told him.
II think that Mr. Thurston has de-

good work. For the salary you pay
him you cannot get one of the So
called big men in the educational

After DR.. Van Schaick was elected

'I felt that it would result in fric-

would go to see the president of the
board on school matters when as a
matter Of fact they should see the
superintendent. I think 1t was a bad
policy. AS a matter of fact. the
president of the board has no differ
ent powers from any other member
of the board except that he presides
over the meetings of the board and
Is the channel of communications with

Mr.. Larner said that he had been
told by Mr.. Thurston that things had
turned out just as he expected: that
people would come to see the presi-
dent Of the board with complaints.
and that the first the superintendent
would hear of them would be in the
board meeting. He said that Mr.
Thurston complained Of this soon
after DR.. Van Schaick opened his
office.
Says Trouble "Got Worse"
ITO what extent did that trouble
go; did it continue?'
1T did and it got worse" said Mr..
Larner.
He said that Mr.. Thurston came up
for reelection in 1917, a year follow
