A large part of the time was devoted to a discussion the legislation proposed by Superintendent Keeler, all of which was favored by the commissioners. Much attention was glv- 1 en to the subject of rural school buildings. Many of the rural buildings in the state are in a deplorable condition and should be condemned, Mr. Keeler out, but no one has tile Me proposes that the legis pass a law giving to some per Son or body the power to condemn building of tliis sort, and also to pass upon plans for new structures. Another proposed act is the requirement that every person have at least six months of normal school traiulng before teaching.

This would prevent graduates from high schools from ceeding to teach without having taken special training. This proposed I lation received the Indorsement of the (commissioners as a body. It is urged that there lie enacted a law making provision for the licensing of teachers who teach special subjects and who have had training in recognized institutions. This also Is a plan promoted by Mr. Keeler.

C. F.

Commissioner Hubbard, of Menominee county, also outlined a plan for conducting reading circle work that was of especial Interest. Change- I'lan for Examination.

The commissioners yesterday decided to make some change in the manner of conducting eighth grade examinations which must be passed by pupils in rural school before their entrance into high school. In the past it has been customary to send out the questions in one package, properly sealed and these were -distributed to the various schools by the commissioner. Now it is proposed that the sealed bundle of examination questions shall be sent to each school separately. it is believed the change will prevent any fraud in connection with the examinations. Another plan that will be followed will give to eighth grade rural school pupils some credit for class room work in that grade, and their entrance into high school will not depend entirely on the results of the examinations.

Courses iu physiology and for entrance into high school in these subjects be taken at the completion of the seventh year work. Mrs I Met raw of Is visit ing in the city. J. A. Pergman of P.ark River was a business visitor 4u the city yesterday.
