Board of Education Did
Not Adopt Resolutions
to Amend Its By-Laws
With But One Dissenting Vote Board Voted to Receive
Resolutions of Dr. W. C. Kellogg As “Information.”
Economy and Improvement of Educational System
Sought By Author of Res olutions
With but one dissenting vote the
Board of Education at its regular
monthly meeting Saturday, voted to
receive 'as "information" the resolu
tions of Dr. W. C. Kellogg, member
of that body, Introduced at the regu
lar October meeting, for the purpose
of amending certain of the by-laws of
the hoard, with a view of ‘‘putting
the board on a more business-like
basis and bringing about internal
economy.”
Under the by-laws of the board, a
resolution of the nature as that in
troduced by Ur. Kellogg, must await
thirty days before action can be
taken thereon. At the time he in
troduced the resolutions. Dr. Kellogg
said that after a study of the board
for several months, he is convinced
that there can be internal improve
ment in economy. He explained at
that time that his purpose for In
troducing the resolutions was to show
to the public that the board is seeking
to establish itself on a better business
basis.
Immediately following a reading of
the resolutions, Saturday, by Dawton
If. Evans, superintendeat of educa
tion, 1. M. Fleming moved that the
resolutions be received by that body
as "information.” A second was made
to Mr. Fleming’s motion. The only
discussion in the premises was made
by Dr. Kellogg, who said that he was
only striving to adjust some condi
tions in the board that have brought
forth Justified criticism and to check
such In the future. It was pointed
out by Dr. Kellogg that an adoption
of the resolutions would further pre
vent any tendency to disrupt the pub
lio school sylstem and a disturbance
of the harmony of the board. His
request that the resolutions be passed
on one ot a time was rejected.
As an educator. Dr. Kellogg, said
that In his opinion Mr. Evans hasn't
an equal in the state and few in the
country, and that the business of be
ing superintendent of the schools is
all that any one man can possibly
look after. In a general way. Dr.
Kellogg, believes that the board
should take from Mr. Evans, the bur
den of handling the thousands of de
tails that should he handled by the
board Itself, and glye him more time
for strictly educational matters.
BELIEVES THAT SCHOOL
SYSTEM CAN BE IMPROVED.
Commenting on the educational sys
tem In the state, though Dr. Kellogg,
said that in his opinion the one in
Richmond county is superior to sny
other In the state, that retarding the
progress of pupils in grads advance
ment is one of the features of the
system that Is wrong. He cited a
school in the city of SO pupils, where
all of them have been advanced and
as a result some *5,000 will be saved,
and he expressed himself as being of
the opinion that a great deal more
can be saved if the entire system In
Richmond county should be conduct
ed on this basis. His were based on
a cost estimate of *45 per pupil, rather
than the estimate of *6O, made by Mr.
Evans. Dr. Kellogg, said that even
with this Improvement he is not cer
tain that the board can operate the
schools with ten mills.
Pointing out in his argument for
the adoption of his resolutions, that
the board spends In the neighbor
hood of *BOO.POO in actual money each
year, and that about twelve or four
teen hours only are devoted by the
board annually to the expenditure of
this sum, Dr. Kellogg emphasised the
need of some re-organlxatlon of that
bodv for the purpose of conducting
itself on a better business basis. Dr.
Kellogg commented on the amount of
money expended for domestic science,
when'the need for new school build
ings Is so great. In his opinion, the

whether or not they want to be taxed
for one year of college work at the
Academy.
So advanced is the thought on edu
cation and with the probability of
mapy of tire methods-now in use be
ing discarded in a few years, Dr.
Kellogg stressed the great need of
Mr. Evans, a thoroughly competent
educator, being given an opportunity
to devote more of his time to the
educational system, and which, he
said, would doubtless make the sys
tem more efficient and at the same
time bring about more Internal econ
omy.

Kellogg, are as follows:
