The schools of a town provide ample and satisfactory education lor one's children, and its churches meet and satisfy his religious needs and conserve the moral and spiritual interests -of the community. Its newspapers keep him informed on local matters, enlarge his knowledge, help him in business, minister to his enjoyment and that of his family, and promote every wise effort put fortn to help the best interests of the town. It is a great pity some other way of handling the text book prob iem connot be adopted. The present plan has never given satisfaclon. The State depository Is forced to handle the books at 10 per cent, profit and pay the freight both ways. The retail dealer gets only 10 per oent. on his sales and a school boy knows that no class of merchandise can be handled at such small margin of profit without loss to the dealer. Several weekj ago The Herald pointed out the absurdity of the school book situation In this State, holding at the time that the State depository should be abolished and that retail dealers should be given the privilege ol buying the books direct from the publishers. In the light of recenl events we see no reason why we should change our mind. The State I board has further complicated and demoralized the situation by making sweeping changes, thereby placing still greater burdens not only upon the public but upon the deal ers aa well. There was no excuse for such action -on the part of the Rt&te board and the matter should be thoroughly investigated. The Herald does not accuse any mem b?r of the board of wrong-doing but to pass this matter by with indifference would he to encourage official conduct of a more 3eriom and aggravating nature. ft is said that onions and olive oil make a good preventative foi scarlet fever and diphtheria, but who would exchange & case of fev<| ?r or diphtheria for a dose of ontwos and olire oil.
