SCHOOL BOOKS AGAIN.
Rarly in the year the School
Board of Pierce County, realizing
the inferiority of the text-books
b<-iug used in this county, at a
regular meeting passed the follow
Ul f, resolutions:
j “Whereas, there is much dissat
^faction with the Text Books now
used in the Public Schools of
pierce County, and wishing to
place in the schools the best books
obtainable, therefore be it
Resolved, That the Board of Ed
ucation of Pierce county will at
it,s regular meeting on the first
Tuesday in June, 1901 , make such
change in the Text Books now 11s
ed in the schools of the county as
enly appear to be for the best pub
lie interest, by adopting other
rids of books for use in the schools,
to replace any or all now in the
adoption of Pierce county, as this
Board may deem best.”
The coming of the Presbyterial
j Institute caused the postponement
j of the adoption until September.
Recently the county has been
over-run with book agents repre
senting different publishers. It
i- interesting to watch them and
to study their methods. Local
men are hired, and sometimes
teachers and even patrons are “in
duced” to influence unsuspecting
Board members.
One of the gravest responsibili
ties the School Board has to meet
is the selection of text-books.
That, the members of the Board
are giving the matter careful con
^deration, we hijve no doubt. The
Times, early in the summer, refer
IH<1 10 Ibis matter and expressed
] the books hope written that ns and far published as possible
j in
] ] the South would be adopted. Too
long our people have been paying
tribute to Northern publishers
and using text-books prepared by
Boston or Chicago teachers who
know no more about the needs of
Southern schools than they do a
hout Southern cotton or cane
fields.
i It is gratifying to note that one
] house, Publishing at least, Co., the B. F. Richmond, Johnson
of
Virginia, has placed their books
at reasonable prices, and that
they are willing to allow a liberal
price for the old books now in use
in the schools. In a recent inter
view, when asked the policy of
this house, Mr. Caldwell, its Gfor
gia representative, said it was:
First, To enter into no combi
nut inns, but stand or fall as an
independent organization.
Second, To conduct tho busi
ness of the house in a strictly lion
est, honorable, straightforward
wny.
Third, To be satisfied with
profits. (Compare the prices of
the Johnson publications with
those of other firms, when
entered the field two years ago.)
Fourth, To publish only books
of the highest literary and pedn
gogie merit.
Fifth, To encourage
authors, both for their own
and because Southern teachers un
derstand best the educational
problems of the South and the
needs of Southern pupils.
Sixth. To publish works
encourage Tripartite Educat ion—
the education of the Mind, Heart,
and Body.
We consider this a pretty good
plat form.

The Tampa Times speaks the
truth when it says: “The most
popular country editor, as well as
the most popular country preach
er > is the one who avoids treading
on any one’s toes. Such an editor
or such a preacher, however, must
necessarily be a hypocrite; for ev
cry man endowed with brains
must have opinions, ideas and con
victions of his own, and should
not hesitate to express them in a
proper way when occasion re
quires. ‘Policy’controls too ma
people, and makes cowards of
lots of men.”
