The efficiency commis- slon does not propose to abolish all the examining boards—the boards for accountants, barbers, electricians, norseshoers, osteopathists and so on. [* Just connect them up “with the state a little better, says J. S. Pardee, sec- rétary of the board. In the depart- ment of health and safety will be a elerk, who may have other duties al- 80, any duties the head of the depart- ment assigns him. He will also be clerk for one or a dozen of these ex- amining boards. When a flock of osteopaths are to -be examined, a committee of qualified osteopaths will be called inte prepare the pa- pers, conduct the examination and pass on the qualifications of the ne- ophytes. But the werk will be done in the department, the registration wilt be performed by a clerk in the department, the licenses will be issu- e¢ from the department. And the accounts will be kept in the depart- ment. It is not really necessary to have formally constituted hoards. The department of education gets along very comfortably without any board of teachers’ examiners. When an examination is to be held, the superintendent calls in a few people competent to conduct the examina- tion and that is all there is to it. But there is probably no objection ta having these boards, and if the trades and guilds ' interested prefer to have it that way, quite likely they will be indulged. But to maintain a separate organization and staft for each, that seems wholly unnecessary. To permit them to exercise the au- thority of the state without any d rect connection with the govern- mentn is not the very best way to arrange it.
