In 1'nstern Oregon, comes an appeal from a, brother cdllor for attpport of the measure on the November ballot wherehy a MlalP normal nchonl may bp establiifbed in that seetton of the state. Ielng reimdp from edinatlouiil facilities of this particular naturp tbp people ir tbal wectlon feel tbut they are entitled lo a normal nchool and the writer sets forth bis appeal In the following language, which the News-lteview Is pleaded to pass on to Its readera for their consideration: "You fellows who reside. In Southern Oregon and are close lo the edtu atloiKil institutions of the state naturally do not apprei late bow isolated we are In Master n Oregon In this rewpect and bow han dicapped our voting people are who desire voeaihinal training as teachers beyond that offered hi high school, l-'or a a tirande boy or ghi to go lo.rolleKe and equl himself or herself as a teacher In our Oregon Mi'tinols Ik n tremendous undertaking lu many limtanrp. It means traveling four or five hundred miles away from home and the expense l such hundred of yuiutg people are denied this oppor tunity to serve both themselves and the state better. "If you will alxu cheek the rei-ords of teachers In the slate roil will find that we give' experience to a great number of "green" teachet-K from outside states for the first two or three years of their teaching eareer and then lone them because they can return with this experience record to more desirable poult lit n in or near their home communities. This condition exists In Oregon because ve do not have sufficient normal m-boot capacity to provide enough teach ers of our own. It therefore happens that our children, those In the grade school all ovvr the state, suffer from having teachers of In adequate experience and training and of an unsympathetic and for eign point of view-. TtUs is tu addition to tho Ions suffered by young people who would lak normal w-houl training If it were made avail able to them by more convenient location. "The Ka.Mteru Oregon normal school when ettablNhed will tint be u heavy lax burden on the people of the state: It will provide bet ter and more pxperlcrp-ed teachers for the grade school children all over Oregon: and It w 111 provule a much needed am) much wanted opportunity (ur hundreds of young people in this seetion."
