ANNOUNCEMENT
FAMILY GATHERS FOR
NEW YEAR HOLIDAY
With this issue, the Herald enters upon a new year of
newspaper life.
While in the past, this publication has endeavored to
faithfully serve its readers «nnd patrons, its field has been
largely restricted to the vicinity of the I-ents and Arleta
communities. We propose, lieginning with our next issue,
to improve the news service in the districts now covered,
and extend it to all of eastern Multnomah county, as far
as possible.
With that end in view, arrangements are now being
made to cover this territory thoroughly, both from the
news standpoint, and distribution of copies of the Herald.
While the Portland dailies have a large circulaton in the
district, it is practically impossible for them to record the
smaller doings of the communities; this field the Herald
intends to acceptably fill.
Arrangements have lieen made with a competent man
to assume charge of the columns of the paper, Mr. Mc­
Arthur, the present publisher, still retaining active con­
trol. Each community will l»e frequently visited and its
n^fairs chronicled. A generous numtier of copies of the
t/«*per will be distributed as samples, after which an active
campaign for subscriptions will lie instituted.
This service we plan to inaugurate with the next is­
sue. In addition, it will contain an announcement of a
nlan whereby the Herald ivill distribute among its read­
ers several hundred dollars in cash prizes over a period of
several months. It is proposed to increase fh •'i”e
f^e
pajier in proportion to the support receh
r
♦he next issue of the Herald for full details.

l’RESENT LAW GOOD,
SAYS INSTRUCTOR
Portland, Dec. 28, 1920.
Editor Mt. Scott Herald. City.
Dear Sir: I have be«*n requested to
-.'•rite you a brief letter in connei’tion
with the fight that in being made
againat the teachers' tenure law. I
am especially glad to do so when I
ueuli the many pk-asant axxociation»
:.necte<i with my brief term of «er-
vice in your community. I símil ever
recall with pleasure the splendid way
in which your paper a» well a» the
citizens of Ixmts co-operat«»d with
the teachers and myself to make the
chool a succesH, and, as 1 have said
n any times, it was only the fact that
1 hud established a permanent resi-
dtnee in another part of the city,
making the distance to be travelled
twice each day, that vault'd me to
ask for a transfer to a school nearer
my home.
Some of the members of our pres­
ent school board, (not all of them,
because Mr. Woodward is loyally
supporting the teachers), are seek­
ing to amend our present law which
has Ik-cn in operation since 1917. The
principal change that they d«sire is
that providing for an independent
board of review or appeal to which
a teacher may, if he or she desire,
appeal in case they f«*l that justice
has not been given them by the school
lioard. This appeal bord has no au­
thority and has never claimed the
authority to interfere, in any manner
whatever with the right of the school
board to run the schools . You will
readily understand how little thia ap­
peal board has had to do with the
actual running of the schools, when
\ou know that only twice, during
four years, has its services been re­
quired. Each and every cast of dis­
missal must be acted on first by the
school board and cannot possibly
reach th«- appeal board except upon
apjieal. And. it is interesting and
.«ignifiennt to note, that not a single
case of a grade teacher has ever been
brought before this board of appeal,
notwithstanding that many teachers
whose work was not up to standard,
have been discharged or forced out
of the service. The power and influ­
ence of this appeal board would seem
therefore to be more potential than
a -tual.
That there have been instances, in
the past, where teachers have not
been treated fairly is of common
knowledge. And here let me quote
briefly from an editorial which ap­
peared recently in the Portland Tele­
gram: “Teachers have memories.
They know from experience—and n
pntt of this experience dates back
less than five years—that the school
board was a "packed” jury: that is to
say, certain excellent teachers, high­
ly efficient, of high character and
ideals, were dismissed or demoted
simply for the reason that some in­
fluential person “had it in for them”.
An «vtremely flagrant ease of this
kind, added to many less flagrant,
e> plains why the tenure law was en­
acted. It was the only defence against
political and persona! machinations.
Apprehension that there might be a
recurrence of the same sort of domi­
nation at some future time, makes
the teachers almost a unit for retain­
ing tho tenure as their one safe­
guard.”
I have not hoard anyone, in this
di«cu«ion over tenure, cast any reflec­
tions on the present board. But those
sponsoring th«' amendment that
woultl abolish the appeal board have
admitted many times that conditiorts
ware very bad in the past. And we
agree. They tell us how fairly the
present board will deal with the
t«'»ebers and again we agree. But,
end not to appear tragic, there is the
tomorrow and tomorrow and tomor­
row, about which they can offer no
guarantee.
Rut, we are told, no other state
has a law like the ont in operation
here. It is possible that our law does
differ in some respects, from those
