These apents have presented arguments as to why their particular texts should be adopted. adopt-ed. They will again have an opportunity oppor-tunity to meet the entire commission and explain further if they so de- sire, but there is a probability that the commission will limit the time ot each representative. It is said that, some agents do not desire to make any further comments, having been satisfied with the personal in- I tervlews.

It is not probable that all text books ! now in use will be changed, as many are giving excelleul satisfaction.
