they were in to position which has
made them notable everywhere in the
country. Other States send here to
study them now. Teacher training
is the key note This progress must
continue.
6. There must be adequate develop
ment for the University of Maryland,
Of course its agricultural activities,
and for the smaller State colleges.
7. Suitable action must be taken to
meet the situation which will result
if Johns Hopkins University abandons
it's undergraduate courses. / confer
red at length with DIR. Goodnow and
the Hopkins trustees on this subject
last April and have had it under con-
sideration since. The proposition is
difficult to work out, and it cannot be
done until the Hopkins plans mature.
8. Experience and new conditions
have made changes in the Public Ser
vice Commission law advisable for the
protection Of the public. The law
must keep pace with these conditions.
I do not believe in State ownership,
because that generally means greater
burdens on the people and less eff
cient service. But the only alternative
to it is adequate and effective regula-
ton. All amendments to the public
utility law necessary to secure this
must, therefore be made.
There must must also be secured
such legislation as may be needed to
meet the conditions caused by the in
terstate developments Of different kinds
which have recently sprung up.
The Commission will in due time
advise me its recommendations on the
whole problem of regulation, as it af-
fects all Maryland interests and peo-
pie, and I will personally cooperate
in working out the proper legislative
program.
9. There must be adequate facii-
ties for the care of the prisoners, in
Guiding the criminal insane, and for
the care of the mentally afflicted, and
particular study Of the difficult and
far-reaching problem presented by the
feeble minded.
This list is not intended to be ex-
elusive. There will be many other
tbingsto do. Some Of them are now
evident, such as adequate coming for
city, consideration Of the
advisability Of survey Of the States
resources, some adequate provision
for reforestation, andso on. My idea
1T this time is simply to indicate VIVA.
seem to me the more essential State
vide needs now eviden, and to which
wish to be committed.
It should be understood also that
the high water mark in legislation
mas been reached, and that the motto
Of the Legislature Of 1927 should be
fewer laws" and none that are not
needed.

At the conclusion of the lesson Miss
Bannatyne, supervisor, explained the
value of such studies in appreciation
and the place they have in the school
curriculum.
| Miss Bannatyne also gave a splen-
did talk on "The Parent Teacher As
ISOLATION, Its Purpose and Function"
In the course of her talk she pointed
out that if a Parent-T Teacher Asso-
citation is to justify its existence and
fulfill its purposes it must function
in two ways. First, by adopting a
program of work, and second, a pro-
gram of study.
Several texts dealing with school
problems of vital interest," to parents
were suggested which might profit
ably be taken up and studied at each
meeting.
The improving and identifying of
the school grounds was suggested as
very worthy project which might
be undertaken by the association this
spring. Miss Bannatyne's address
has called forth much favorable COM
ment in the community and it is ex-
pected that the members will take
steps toward carrying out this project
in the near future.
