Included in that function are a mul- tfplicity of duties. One of the major undertakings is to finance the schools. To do so systematically is to budget every dollar to be raised for school support, and to know the necessity and purpose of all expenditures. Next in importance to financing the school system is the legislative or policy- making powers of the school board. What the latter shall be is determined by current practices and the ability of the community to keep pace with tested, approved and accepted procedures wherever tried. Few people in any community have a clear conception of the function of a board of education. Besides those already enumerated, the school board must wrestle with such profound questions as the following, the final answer to which can never be given owing to the continued growth in the complexity of civilization: 1. What, in the final analysis, should schools do for children '? 2. What elements in our present culture are worth preserving and passing' on to the young, and what obsolete beliefs and practices should be cast off? 3. What are the special responsibilities of the school in an age of enforced idle- ness, and economic and social insecurity? 4. How shall schools be disciplined and managed in order to develop independ- ent weakness? 5. What should children do in school to make more reliable, dependable and self- directive? li. What can children study in school to the end that as a result they will be less ready to jump to false conclusions and less available for economic and politi- 4 cal racketeers? 7. What shall children do in school to the end that graduates may take a more aggressive and constructive attitude toward improving' their own homes and bettering' their communities 'Z 8. How clearly are important objectives conceived by the staff and what means are they taking' to attain more,sig'nificant results '? The function tlierefzmre of the board of education in the last analysis is to participate in the direction of American civilization, for which the ablest minds of the community should be enlisted.
