AN IMPORTANT MEETING
Scores of the alumni of the Univer
sity of Oregon are teaching in the
high schools of the state, or are serv
ing as city superintendents.
All of these alumni should be in
terested in the meeting of the State
Teachers)* Association for Western
Oregon, which will take place on the
campus of the University of Oregon
during the first three days of Christ
mas week. The high school section
of this association is working on
many of the problems that perplex
the authorities of the secondary
schools of Oregon. Often a high
school teacher who attends the State
Association and takes an active part
in the work of the secondary section
gets into closer touch with the live
issues of the day than she otherwise
would all year.
The Alumni Secretary happens to be
the chairman of the high school sec
tion of the state meeting. He has sent
.letters to all principals, asking for
* suggestions as to topics for discussion
in this section. Any suggestions from
Univerity graduates or others who
may be teaching in high schools in tfie
state will have careful attention, if
sent in before November 5.
An added inducement to Universi
ty graduates to attend the i 'eeting is
the fact that the teachers will be en
tertained by he Universiy. The mem
bers of the faculty of the School of
Education, the chairman of the ap
pointments committee, many superin
tendents on the lookout for strong
teachers, will be at the meeting. At
tendance at the state meeting may
well mean a better position and a bet
ter salary next year.
Although formally the organiza
tion does not include those Eastern Or
egon counties which have in time
l past had a state association of their
• own, teachers from those counties are
always welcome,
