There is no logical reason under Heaven why the school books of Oregon have to be changed, except to put more money in the pockets of the Big Book Corporations, that ehould be spent for food clothing and shoes for many a child. Just think of it! All children doing First grade work last term, will have three different sets of School Books before he or she feraduates, under the present system. It is high time that the citizens of Oregon knock out this abominal Text Book Law that robs many a child who is striving through poverty to obtain a pommon School Education. Mil SOCIETY.
