Bpard’s Powers Limited. « The défenye of the state board, made by a member of it, C. F. Smith of New Britain, was that the powers of the board are limited'by statute and it is not in a position nor has it the means or money to carry out certain plans that it feels would overcome some weaknesses in the present system of managing the schools in. Connecticut. Favoring the Bill. Among those who were heard in fa- vor of the passage of the bill were C.: H. Potter, Woodsteck; L. H. Healey, master of the state srange, Wood stock; George C. Phillips, sclectman, Woodstock; Austin A.' Pearl, master of Quihebaug Pomona grange, Hamp- ton; W. L. Bennett, Ashford. Canterbury Satisfied. Representative Charles S. Hyde of Canterbury also said a few words, his remarks beirig in opyosition, in a way, to what was said by the gentlemen from Woodstock, and in degense of the state board, to which he gave credit for dolng more for the schools in his town than the people there had asked for; in fact, done ‘everything within its power. & Ropresentative Perrin Opens. Representative Perrin was the first speaker, outlining the 'reasons for the introduction of the bill, with the idea of securing a commissio® that would ascertain why the country schaols are not giving such satisfaction as for- merly. Mr. Perrin said phit the per- sonnel of the state board was beyond reproach, but that mevertheless there was something radically wrong with the administration of country schools and that a commission weuld be able to find out what it was. Board Affected by Politics. Representative Perrin also intimat- ed that in his opinion the state board of education is too much affected by political influences. . He sfated that he had no specific charges to make. Woodstock Schools Below Standard of Twenty Years Ago. H.

Mr. Smith said thal the state -must spend more money if it wants better schools, G No_Control of Buildings and Equip- ment. He also pointed out that the board at pkesent has no control over build- ings or their equipment and that un- der the adverse criticism in the report of the- committee to which the Wood- stock speakers referred wasirélative to the 'condition and equipment of buildings in the.country distgicts. Ashford Surrendered Under "Protest.

He madel it clear that he was in fa- vor of normal schools-and appreciat- ed the excellent Work they Wers doing and that many of those trained- in such_schools made excellent teachers, but that if persons did not have the maturg] Jmstinct of a teacher that a normal/‘school training _would not make them superior or more capable than another who did not receive the advantages of such training but hed a nati inclination to -teach was well equipped to engage.in such work, Frills and Fancy Work. | Mr. Heaiey said that superintend- ents and supervisors often instst on teaching methods that are impracticd= ble and that he belleved pupils Were being made -to spend too much time on frills and fancy work.
