To the Patrons of Oregon
Schools:
We do not attach sufficient im.
portance to our annual school
meeting. This year our annual
meeting occurs June 17. On this
day one director and the clerk
are to be elected in every school
district in Oregon, a matter of
much importance to each com
munity. I should be very glad
indeed, to find that many of the
Oregon school districts were
making the day of the annual
school meeting an important oc
casion, and at the same time tak
ing advantage of being together
to talk over the problems of the
schools.
The voting for director and
clerk will take place at the school
house. It should be remembered
that women already have the
privilege of suffrage in school
elections. If all the women of
the community will pack their
