DELAYS ACTION

the two teachers. I
After these talks had been made
Director Taylor who was one of those
voting against the two teachers ex
plained his action.
- "Miss Casey is a young woman,"
he said, "and was born and raised In
Roseburg. She is so well aqualnted
with the pupils under her that she is
not ahle to obtain the proper discip
line. Both the city superintendent
and the high school principal said
that she was weak In this particu
lar, and we thought that it would be
best for her to teach In some other
school for a year or two until these
children. with whom she is so well ac
quainted are out of school, and she
will then be able to obtain better
discipline in her classes.
"Regarding Miss Tracy, there have
been a number of complaints, some
coming from persons who were will
ing to make their names known and
so"ie from others who did not wish
their names known. One person told
me today, after hearing that there
was a petition out in favor of Miss
Tracy, that he wished we would -wait
and give opportunity for a petition of
remou ranee."
Mrs. F. H. Churchill slated that
she circulated one of the petitions in
favor of Mls Tracy and found that
no one could understand why she had
not been reinstated.
Mrs. I). W. Maddox stated that she
had been In Miss Casey's classes and
knew that the discipline was good.
Carl Wlmberly stated that he had
talked with hlch school students re
garding the discipline In Miss Casey's
classes and that he had been told that
the discipline was good.
Mrs. W. F. Chapman said that she

that he had never received any com

this was one of those coming before
the board. He was advised that such
was the case, and then asked to know
if the boy had made any better re

school.
Superintendent Hamm answered
Dr. Shoemaker, stating that the boy
had failed to make grades in the
Benson school, and also said that the
parents of one of the boys In the
same grade with the Wlllard boy ask
ed to have their child moved to the

Chairman A. A. Bellows presented
two petitions, one from the grade
school teachers, and the other from
the high Bchool faculty, asking for the
reinstatement of the two teachers.
The teachers also presented In their
petitions resolutions stating that they
believed the action of the board to be
unfair to the profession. When com
plaints are made against teachers
they should be notified of the nature
of the complaint and given the name
of the person making it and afforded
an opportunity to appear In their own
behalf. It was stated. Further tnan
that, it was held that if there should
be any dissatisfaction over the work
of any teacher that teacher should be
given an opportunity to resign.
After these matters had been pre
sented the board turned to the regu
lar order of business.
The first matter taken up was the
appointment of a director to succeed
A. T. Lawrence who resigned. Direc
tor Finlav proposed the name of
Stanley Kidder.
"What church does he belong to,"
Director Taylor itmnedately as1ed.
From the ensuing conversation re
garding directors It appears -that
church affiliations largely determine
the qualifications for directors, as
the church affiliation of every man
whose name was proposed was ask
ed, or mentioned.
The directors all finally agreed
upon the name or A. J. Geddes, and
Mr. Geddes was chosen. He has pre
viously served in this capacity, bing
a member of the board for a number
of years, and Is well qualified in
every particular.
Dr. Finlay then made a motion to
reinstate the two teachers who had
not been tendered contracts, but was
unable to secure a second to his mo
tion. "I think we ought to wait until the
new director Is present." Mr. Taylor
said, "and give hmi an opporunity to
express himself. If we wait until
next meeting it will also glv any
one having objections a chance to ap
pear.'.' "Well what's the use of delaying
this thing any longer?" Finlay want-
the Rose school.
I twas reported that Miss Kinlly
Webber, Miss Inge Gleddle and Miss
Gooding bad returned their contracts
unsigned, and the city superintendent
was instructed to Becuio lei.chci's to
fill the vacancies.
There was considerable discussion
regarding the employment of Janitors
for the coming year, and a small in
crease in salary was granted.
Tho next meeting will be held on
April 11, It was Btated, at which time
the matter of reinstating the teachers
will be taken up again.
