SPONSORS BILLS
ON TEXT BOOKS
Senator Watson to Offer
Three Measures: Rental
Provided For.

Senator Chester X, watson. Fl.
Wayne, will introduce three bills in
the General Assembly relating to the
rental and adoption of school books
in the grade and high schools Of
the state.
Multiple adoption of texts will be
provided for in two of the bills. The
proposed measure will give the state
Board of Education the power to
adopt four text books on each subject
taught, and the local authorities will
make their selections from these
four.
In cities having a population of
more than $500 the selection, &C
cording to the proposed bills, will
be made by a school book commits
sion consisting of the superintend-
ent of schools and four teachers to
be chosen by the School Board. In
townships Of less than $500 popula-
ton the selections would be made
by the county superintendent and
four teachers to be named by the
County Board of Education.
The State Board of Education at
the end of five years time could
drop the least used text book of
the previous list. This would do
away with the present system Of
changing text books every few years.
The bill would provide that local
boards could not change books as
long as they were on the list APP
proved by the state.
Another proposed measure pro-
videS that local school boards could
buy text books and rent them to
pupils at not more than 25 per cent
of the wholesale cost of the books.
