Retiring President Bowen of the Kansas State Teachers' AssooiatioB, in his address, gave some good sound logic on the school book question which is worthy of reprinting. "How may we secure the bet books under the pretent law? Tbo answer is simple and self evident: raise the maximum price until tbo best books on the market are offered for adoption and then hold the text book commission respousible for thoir selection. Under the present prices this is impossible.

The commission can or.ly select (be best hooks effered. So long as the present law rerrains unmodified it viill be possible to storo the responsibility of the selection ef a poor book from the shoulders of the ccnimiscicn the weakness of the law.

An examination shows the cost of all the uooks required to complete the course from the kindergarten to the high echoo! is 85 01. Since the time required to complete the grammar school course is eight years, it follows that the aveiage annual cost for books in the common schools is 63 cents per year. Upon this basis it the coming legislature should raise the maximum price of books 33V per cett to cover the iccreased cost of labor and material sinca the enactment of this law, the annual cost per pupil would not excted 21 cents.

Forney claims to have a lease until Juno 1 and has been regularly elected by the board to manage the properly and for those reasons, together with the fact that he owns the controlling interest, will take the matter into the courts.
