X THE MOKXTNG OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY, JULY 2, 1907. PLEA FOR BETTER GOUNTRYSCHOOLS -Mrs. Clara H. Waldo Talks to the Oregon Teachers' Association. BIG GATHERING AT SALEM Annual Meeting Is Largely Attended. Governor Chamberlain Delivers Address On Importance of Grade Work. SALEM. Op.. July L (Special.) A Btronr plea, for the country school, for better rural teachers, for a revival of the slnglnsr-bee and the, spelling-match, for union high schools and rural trolley lines was the theme of the principal ad dress of the first day's session of the Ptate Teachers' Association. Mrs. Clara H. Waldo, grand lecturer of the State Grange, was the speaker and that her -ews met the hearty approval of the 600 teachers in attendance was shown by the frequent applause by which she was in terrupted. The association convened in the audi torium of the First Christian Church at 30 o'clock this morning with a crowd of teachers that filled the room to its ut most seatinur capacity. Of the total num ber in attendance, 200 arrived this morn incr on a special train from Portland. A deep interest is taken in all the general and department -sessions, and it is evi dent that this will be one of the most successful meetings the association has ever held. After a few selections on the piano by R. A. "Whitehead, President Alphia I TJImlck introduced Governor Chamber lain, who, in an opening adress, spoke of the importance of an efficient organi zation of the common schools system. He placed particuular emphasis upon the need for thorough work In the grammar grades, and said that the course of study for these eight grades should be intensely practical and adapted particularly to the reeds of the child who will go no farther than the eighth grade. Experience has shown that not more than 10 per cent of the children ever get beyond the eighth grade. Therefore, he would not shape the grammar school course to fit the high school or the college, but make the gram mar school what it should be to meet the needs of the- child who goes no further, and let the higher grades be framed to harmonize with this. Need Better Rural Teachers. Mrs. Waldo was the next speaker. "While not directly disagreeing with the views expressed by the Governor, she as serted that the greatest effort must be put forth in behalf of the country school, not only In the grammar grades, but In the high school grades as well. "The city has its libraries. Its churches, its entertainments, its lectures. Its reading rooms and various other opportunities for educational and social development. The country has none or few of these. The city child may find other means of ad vancement if anything be lacking In the rchool. In the country the school Is al most the sole dependence for Intellectual advancement so It Is essential that we have there the most capable, teachers. "The teacher In the country school should be the leader not only of the school, but of all- the educational work of the community. I taught a country school for three months myself, some 30 years ago. Years afterward I jnet some of the young men and women who went to school to me. They gave me credit for all they had attained in the way of education. How I could have earned such commendation' in the space of three months I could not understand pntil they told me that It was not my school room work that counted, but my ef fective efforts In persuading their parents to buy. books and periodicals for the home. The time they spent in school was short, but they read extensively of good books and magazines at home. "The country school teachers should be one who cair lead the people of the district in the organization of the Bing-Ing-bee and the spelling school, which have unfortunately fallen into disuse in recent years. These features of rural life were of Inestimable value in bring ing the people together and giving them that polish which can be attained only by frequent contact. I sincerely hope to see these Institutions revived In the rural districts. ' . 4 Plea for Union High "Schools. "We need also the union high School, which will enable the young pecf-'e to continue their studies after passing the eighth grade, without leaving the home. A girl or boy who has completed the eighth grade at the age -of 14 or 15 Is too young to go away to high school or to the Agricultural College. Children of that age need the watchful care of parents. "We should have rural high schools within reach of children of this age. where they can be educated until they are 17 or IS, when- they may go ax-ay from' home if "they desire. The high school course should include some work n pedagogy, so 'that when a pupil has completed the rural high" school, a short course at the normal school will fit her for teaching. The construction of rural trolley lines will aid In the building up of union high schools, by making ' It easier for students to reach the schools from a distance." ' At the afternoon session the subject of compulsory education was discussed by State Superintendent Ackerman, of Oregon, and State Superintendent Harmon,- of Montana. The State Superin tendents from Idaho and Washington were to have discussed the same sub ject, but were not present. Superin tendent Ackerman said In part: Tof the past eight years there has been an ever-increasing- demand for a more strin gent compulsory law. but the 8tate Depart ment was loath to ask for such a law until such time as public opinion was so urgent that a compulsory law that would compel could ba enforced.' During the past year the press and the pulpit have made them elves heard 1n no uncertain terms as to the duty, of the state to pass such a law, and so strong was this demand that the Department at last came to believe that the time had arrived when It Would be wise to ask for legislative action.' The Legisla ture was more than willing to pass the measure, and It Is . now for us so to ad minister it as to retain the co-operation of our people. In making it effective. I, there far would urge. In the strongest possible manner that the strong arm of the law be not evoked until all other means have failed. I think the teacher should, have a heart-to-heart talk with the parent, the School Xloard use Its persuasive powers, the people of the community should intercede with the refractory parent before the child's name Is sent to the County Superintendent, but after all the moral suasive means have btn of no avail, then the law should be enforced without fear or favor in no un certain terms. Pedagogues "Talk Shop." City Superintendent TV. E. Chandler, of the-"Washington, D. C. schools, de livered an -Address -Upon, "Genetic; . -Psy chology and Its Lessons for Educators." In the department of superintendence there was a general discussion of teach ers' reports and annual school meetings. The department of secondary and higher education devoted the day to problems of high school organization, the speak ers being Superintendent Robinson, of Multnomah County; Principal J. H. Swan, of Klamath Falls; Principal L. A. Reed, of Park Place, and Professor 'J. B. Horner, of O. A. C. in the city superintendents and principals' section an address was delivered by Professor H. L. Bates, of Pacific University, on "Moral Training in the School." In the advanced section. Superintendent J. C. Zinser, of Clackamas County, spoke on "Grammar vs. Language." and W. L. Greenleaf, of Portland, discussed "Man na! Training." The addresses in the in termediate section were "Geography in the Grades," by Principal T. J. Newbill, of Woodlawn, and Miss Mary Frazier, of Portland, and "Pupil Organization for Self-Government," by Miss Audrey Brown, of Arleta. In the primary sec tion, Mrs. W. H. Evans gave an Instruc tive talk on "First Grade Drawing." The teachers of the Salem public schools tendered the visiting members of the profession a very enjoyable reception In Elks' Hall this evening.

Thompson of the First Baptist Church of Ballard, has denounced the commencement day ora tion of Judge C. E. S. Wood, delivered before the graduates of the Univer sity of Washington.

Wood Ih his commencement Address, teeming: with notes of infidelity, atheism and socialistic anarchy?" asked Rev. Elmer E. Thompson. The preacher severely criticized the views of the Portland jurist, calling him an atheist and an anarchist, and advancing his own, orthodox views in opposition to ' the lawyer's liberalism.

Hartman did not Indorse Judge Wood's speech, though. Until the Ballard minister renewed the attack, university authorities thought the commencement day inci dent had closed.

WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS. r The Modlolne That. Makes Rich, Red Blood and Performs Wonders as a Tonic forth Nerves.. "Why are nervous people invariably pale people? The answer to that question explains -why a remedy that acts on the blood can cure nervous troubles. It explains why Dr. William' Pink Pills for Pale People are also for nervous people. It is because of the intimate relation between the red corpuscles in the blood and the health of the nerves. The nervous system receives its nourishment through the blood. Let the blood be come thin, weak and colorless and the nerves are starved the victim is started on the road that leads to nervous wreck. Nervous people are pale people but the pallor comes first. Enrich the blood and the nerves are stimulated and toned up to do their part of the work of the tody. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills make red blood and transform nervous, irrit able, ailing people into strong, energetic, forceful men and women. Mrs. Harriet E. Porter, of 20 liberty avenue, South Medford, Mass., says: "I had never been well from ohild hood and a few years ago I began to have dizzy spells. At such times I could not walk straight. - I was afraid of pncalysia and was on the verge of nervous prostration. Then neuralgia set in and affected the side of my face. The pains in my forehead were excru ciating and my heart pained me so that my doctor feared neuralgia of the heart. I tried several different kinds of treat ment but they did me no good. " One day my son brought me some of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and I found that they strengthened my nerves. I took several boxes and felt better in every way. There were no more dinrr attacks, the neuralgia left me and I have been a well woman ever since." Dr. Williams Pink Pills are invaluable in anaemia, rheumatism, after-effects of the grip and fevers and in sick head aches, nervousness, neuralgia, and even partial paralysis and locomotor ataxia. , Our booklet "Nervous Disorders, a Method of Home Treatment" will be sent free on request to anyone interested.
