many parents, particularly when al

ns that which’ pays tho teachers and
omits the buildings.”
Itswou'.d seem, from this comment,
that tha people of Pennsylvania as
well as those of Georgia, are experi
encing the hardships of a change in
the text books to be used in her pub
lic schools.
The Gazin tk learns I Imt the re
cent change in the text books ot Her-
lien county is looked upon by the
parents of poor children ns nil al
most intolerable burden, and some of
them hate had to doclino sending
their children to school this spring
simply for the reason they could not
afford to undergo the extra expense
of a new set of text hooks.
The Gazuttk is informed that it
requires about ftl per scholar to pay
the difference bitwoen eld mid new
hooks by the system of exchange, If
tlio books are bought straight until
will cost at least double that amount
Then, if tin, parent has two or more
I'hildrnti lie desires to send to school,
the burden bceomes very obvious to
the poor man.
Ills, verily, very unfortunate that
fhe selection of new text books and
making new contracts with publish

Country has just emerged from an

K. Y'usco Newborn has scoured

from Nashville hack to YVilliicoooheo
