STATU TKACHHK'S ASSOCIATION
AlEuTS IX DECKMUEK
A. C. HnnsnUm to .Make Anneal al
linker Institute or 100 Per cent
Membership
Superintendent A. C. Hampton
president of the Oregon State Teach
ers Association, . is busy preparing
the program for the meeting of the
association in Portland, Decembei
29, 30 and 31. He announces that
Mr. H. B. Wilson, superintendent ol
city schools at Berkeley, California
has been secured as one of the prin
cipal speakers. Superintendent Wil
son is one of the progressive Su
porintendents of the country and
Mr. Hampton considers himself for
tunato In being able to secure hii
services. Seventeen of the nineteei
departmental heads have been ap
pointed and all are now working or.
their programs.
The State Teachers Association
is the one organization which Is vit
ally concerned in the welfare of al'
the teachers of the state. One or tin
purposes of any Association such a
the State Teachers Association has
Ln the fact that it creates by meanr-
of expert commissions composed ol
its leading school people, a body ol
literature that is extremely helpful In
school work. By this means curreni
educational practice is Investigated
and the result made available It
printed form for all the teachers ol
the state.
This is precisely what tho Stat
Association Is now doing and the
results are printed four times a
year in bulletin form which are dls
trlbuted to all the members.
Mr. Hampton believes that from
the standpoint of self interest alone
no teacher ln the state can affori!
to not become a member of the As
sociation. The duos are only one
dollar per year and this entitles the
member to the quarterly publicatlor
which Is well worth the money, bu.
In addition the ' Association, undei
Mr. Hampton's administration, le
concerning Itself vitally In the in
terest of the Individual teacher ol
the etate. It was due directly to the
agency of the State Association thai
the minimum salary now for teachers .
was passed by tho last legislature.
This law provides that no teacher
in the state can now contract to
teach for loss than seventy-five dol
lars per month. From a study of
tho teachors' salary roll in the
thirty-six counties of tho state it
was discovered that about 1,600
teachers were receiving less than
375 per month during the yeai
1918-1919. j
While there was no minimum sal
ary law on the statutes prior to the
1919 legislature, the requirement
that 85 per cent of the schoo'
funds must be spont for teacher'!
salaries virtually established a min
imum of only J50 per month. The
Increase to J75 is thus nn Increase
of 50 per cent In the minimum.
Superintendent Hampton leaver
for Bakor tomorrow and It is hli
purpose to appeal to tho teachors of
Union and Baker countieB to regis
ter for 100 per cent membership tr
ibe association. 'He feels that with
the past record of achievement bj
the association for the teachers, thai
no teacher can afford not to become
a member. Up to the present time
the teachers of. Malheur, Jackson
Wasco, Deschutes, Kalmath and
Doiiglas counties .have registered
100 per cent in membership ln thf
association, and It IB firmly be
lieved that the teachers of Union
and Baker counties will dp th(
same at their Joint .institute ln Ba
kor this week.

Tho Municipal Boxing Show to be!
held nt the A-rcnde. theatre Tuesday
evening consists of two high class
boxing events between clever, experi
enced boxers, well matched as to
weight nnd ability and promises to be
splendid amusement for those inter
ested In high class athletic affairs.
Gord on and Rocco, the two bantams,
are speed demons mid botn have train
ed faithfully for their bout and are in
condition to go at top speed over the
10-round routo. Rocco's manager. Ad
Garlock, will be in the little fellow's
corner and will advise him through
out the contest. Garlock predicts a
victory for his boy. He is naturally
very anxious for first honors as it
means a chanco against Mascott for
the coast championship.
A wire from A. Matin, manager and
adviser of Sammy Gordon, states they
nre leaving Portland Monday morning
for Ij Grande, thnt Gordon is in the
best of condition and ready to give n
good account of himself. Mr. Matin
accompanies Gordon on all his trips,
never permitting the little bantam to
compete in any ono unless he is pres
ent to second nnd advise him.
Tho special eight-round contest be
tween Payne and Bradley will bo full
f action from start to finish. Both
boys nl e of the strong, aggressive typo
nnd good mixers and can be depended
upon for a good contest.
It is tho desire of the boxing coin
mission to establish training quurterr
for boxers participatng in contest)
heru n little later to enablo boxers to
come n few days in advance of their
snows and make their final prepara
tion for their bouts right here, thereby
giving the sport followers an oppor
tunity of seeing tho boys ln training
and enable them to got a lino on them
as to their ability nnd form before
seeing them in tha ring. Because of
the lack of accommodations here it hu
been necessary to have tho workors
train at home and come in on the eve
of the battle.
A good preliminary between lncnl
boys is in prospect, good music will be
furnished by Eddio Ford's Jazz Or
