McEVOY BROS. ! COURT 8TRKBTS. gAJUCM, OR. Several Important aifd progressive school ideas woro brought out at tho mooting of tho Board of Regents of tho Stato Normal Schools. Stato Su perintendent Ackerman advancod tho Idea that somo duy thoro would bo county school bonrdB Instead of local district boards, and tho county school suporintondont would bo formally tholr business ngont and school ad ministrator. That would glvo tho wholo county uniformity in courses of study, In employment of teach ers and construction and repairs of school houses. JuBt as throo mon now administer tho affairs of tho county commissioners' court, so throo men could run tho county Bchool affairs, and got far bettor re sults. That 'would mako bettor schools posslblo, and would mako it possible to liavo school houses -and grounds kopt in bettor repair. Thore aro too many Bchool houses in tho county that aro neither sanitary nor comfortable, and in too many dis tricts tho employment of tenchors Is n matter of favoritism, or whoro tho teacher shall board, moro than tho quality of tho educational work that is dono. An Important Reform. Wm. B. Ayor, of Portland, ad vanced tho Idea that all stato educa tional institutions would ultimate ly have to como under ono bonrd of control, and ho cited tho lawB of sev eral states whoro this Is now done. Tho duplication of studies and de partments at tho Stato University and tho Agricultural College could thus bo avoided. Ho said informal ly at tho meeting of tho stato board that ho could not conceive that two such Institutions could covor tho samo ground in any respect, ono bo ing an institution of literary and classical attainments, and tho other being a school of sciences and Indus tries. That will be tho solution som day of tho big expense that is now heaped upon tho Btato from carrying on similar or ldentlcnl denartmonls in tho Stato University and tho School of Agriculture. By holdlne both more strictly to the purposo of tho laws creating them thoy would both como moro ofllciont. Mr. Ayor believes in tho application of sound business common sense to tho work of reforming tho stato educational system. It has been suggested be fore that things have been running too much at loose ond, and It Is ovl dent that Oregon Is entering upon a new era in school matters. Mr. Ayer would certainly tnko tho higher schools out of politics and local con trol. Compulsory Education Law. The newly appointed county su perintendent of schools has taken up his work and gives promiso of belns a progressive and conscientious ofll cer.
