The committee on the selection of text-books for use in the high schools of the State submitted a report embodying additions and changes to the list already printed in the following subjects: Latin, Greek, History, Physics, Chemistry, Physiology, Physical Geography, Zoology, Geology, Botany, Geometry, Arithmetic, Algebra; and a list of text-books in the subjects of English, German, French, and Spanish. A complete list of these textbooks will probably be published before the opening of the next school year. After much discussion, the Board adopted the following rules and regulations to govern the State Board, County and City and County Boards of Education of California, in the granting of high school credentials and certificates:

The State Board of Education of the State of California adopts the following Rules and Regulations for its own guidance in the granting of Credentials for High School Certificates, and for the guidance of County, and City and County Boards of Education in granting High School Certificates:

1. On and after the first day of July, 1901, and until further notice, County, or City and County Boards

of Education are authorized to grant High School Certificates (according to law as provided in Sections 1521 (2) (a), and 17/5 (1) (a), of the Political Code of California), to graduates of the following Universities:

University of California.
Cornell University.
University of Michigan.
Johns Hopkins University.
University of Wisconsin.
University of Nebraska.
University of Indiana.

University of Illinois.

Columbia University (Teachers' College).

Leland Stanford Jr. University.

Brown University.

State University of Iowa.

Yale University.

Harvard University.

University of Minnesota.

University of Chicago.
Clark University.

Graduates of the above mentioned colleges may be granted certificates upon presentation of a recom. mendation from the faculty of any one of these institutions; provided, that such recommendation shall show that the applicant has taken courses in the theory of education, or in the actual practice of teaching, under supervision of the pedagogical faculty, equivalent to twelve hours per week for one-half year; provided, that after July, 1906, at least one-third of the prescribed pedagogy shall consist of actual teaching in a well equipped training school of secondary grade, directed by the department of education.

2. Under the provision of Section 1521 (2) (b), and Section 1775 (1) (a) of the Political Code of the State of California, the State Board of Education may issue special credentials for high school certificates to those who have taught with decided success at least twenty-seven months as regular teachers in schools of the academic grade and character of California high schools. The success of such teachers will be determined by confidential letters and such other reliable information as the Board may be able to obtain.

3. A graduate of a college of recognized high academic standing, who has had pedagogical training equivalent to that prescribed by this Board for graduates of the University of California, and who has taught two years (tweuty months) subsequent to graduation, may be granted the special high school credential, upon which a County, or a City and County Board may grant a high school certificate. The success in teaching of those making application for credentials under this provision, will be determined by confi dential letters, or by any other reliable information which the Board may be able to obtain.

It will be the policy of this Board to demand high scholarship and marked skill in teaching of all successful applicants for special credentials, whether they be college graduates or not. In order that the Board may be able to satisfy itself thoroly concerning the fitness of an applicant, ample time will be required for the necessary investigation before final action is taken. No one will be granted the special credential who is diseased, or lacking in normal bodily vigor.

4. In accord with an opinion rendered by the Attorney-General, the State Board of Education will not grant a credential for a teacher's certificate to an applicant who is not a resident of the State of California.

5. Every application for a teacher's credential under the foregoing rules must be accompanied by a reputable physician's certificate, to the effect that the applicant is in sound bodily health. This rule to be in force and effect from and after January 18, 1902.

To cover the purposes of the provisions of sub. 5 of section 1775 of the Political Code, the State Board of Education designated the following Uuiversities as of equal rank with the State University of California, and graduates from the same, upon compliance with law and with the rules of the State Board, may be granted the University Document, to-wit:

Leland Stanford Jr. University, California.
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Cornell University, Ithica, New York.

Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut.

In compliance with Sec. 10 of the

Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts.
University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois.

Columbia University (Teachers' College) New York,
N. Y.

Act of 1885 in reference to the State series of text-books, the State Board voted to continue the same schedule of prices for State text-books for the coming school year.

Under the provisions of sub. 2 (b) section 1521, the following were granted the special high school credential:

Ellen M. Parker, Los Angeles.
W. A. Dunn, Los Angeles.
W. T. Randall, Los Angeles.

Irvin D. Martin, Oakland.
E. F. Burrill, Berkeley.
R. S. Holway, San Jose.

R. D. Hunt, San Jose.
A. E. Shumate, San Jose.

The State Board did not deem it wise at this time to increase the list of accredited Colleges, and therefore the applications of Dartmouth College, Pomona College, and University of Colorado for accrediting, were denied. THOMAS J. KIRK, Secretary.

The Proceedings of the Southern California

Teachers.

The editor of the JOURNAL is responsible for the cutting of the manuscripts furnished by the speakers of the meeting of the Southern California Teachers' Association. It was a difficult task. President Avery's address, Dr. E. Benjamin Andrews' Anti-Cassandra, Prof. C. C. Plehn's recital of life in the Philippines, Superintendent Foshay's interesting talk, and some others, are published in full. Many of the addresses were not submitted at all. Other addresses, like that of Ednah Rich, which we hope later to publish in full, have been spoiled by the cutting. As a rule, however, the extracts are quite complete, and certainly very effective. President Lewis B. Avery originated the idea of printing the proceedings in the OFFICIAL JOURNAL. We are satisfied that it is an innovation that will be followed in future years. Secretary Guthrie has acted with great care and promptness in supplying the manuscripts and attending to the various details of publication.
