A very Krnvo error i the
constant luK'islative chmiKOfl
in uducnlional mnttcrn. It la
now proposed that tho public
school syHtetn bo ehanicod from
a district to a county unit plan.
The bill provides for tho election
of three niombers of a county
board of education who are to
appoint a county superintendent
and with him will employ nil
teachers, audit all bills, perform
all work of school bonrdB, otc.
To adopt this plan is left option
al by vote of electors in county.
The following was taken from
tho proceedings of State Teach
era' Association in EtiKcne last
December: Oregon will face n
serious shortage of teachers in
1915 unless hiuli schools of the
stnte respond to an appeal for
tho installation of teachers'
traininir courses, according to J.
A. Churchill, State School Sup
erintendent, speaking before tho
Oregon state Teachers' Associa
tion here today, at which about
700 educators were assembled.
"Oregon needs 1000 teachers
annually, nnd the State Normal
School docs not furnish inoro
than one-tenth of this number."
ho said, "nnd this is in fnco of
the fnct that after Sontcmbcr 1.
1915, no one, not even u high
school graduate, can bo granted
a certificate who has not had an
elementary teachers' training
course.
"While tho course in the high
school cannot give tho training
that a standard normal school
gives, it can partially prepare
teachers for their work, nnd it
can givo tho training course re
duired by the now law. Inci
dentally, it will assist in raising
tho standards of tho rural
schools."
Tho ideal school will never,
never bo tlio production or any
ono person, it will bo a gatnor-
nig of tho best in every way,
Wo realize that wo cannot moos
uro intellectual attainments by
means of diplomas and degrees.
There aro men who have gone
tho whole educational machine
from kindergarten to University
w Iio are spending their lives un
dor direction of men who have
hud only tho most meagro opnor
tunity, in fact aro self mado
men. bomo sny (he school ques
tion will novor bo settled until
tho parents take tho matter in
charge, and after deciding what
ought to bo done, stato their
conclusions to tho teacher in
charge.
In conclusion, wo must bring
tho curront of education into
narrower bounds, making it
deeper and stronger instead of
destroying its usefulness by
spreading it over vast areas.
A few words of encouragement
might bo ottered to tho critical.
Many things contrary to our
own way of thinking nro grad

hducntors and parents have
united hands in efforts to better
the conditions of school, teacher
and pupil. Mistakes will bo
made, but other and better con
elusions will appear in their
stead.
Ono mother expresses her
conclusions in this way: "It
seems very strange to me that
every new idea that comes along
hns to be tried on the children of
the public schools. The latest
is teaching tho children physiol
ogy and hygiene. Such things
aro good in their place, but why
not teach them a little more
arithmetic, aud also let them
get more familiar with the al
phabet? Where is thero a busi
ness man or woman who does
not refer to the alphabet or ta
bles many times a day 'there
should be more drill on tho good
old fashioned tables, and less
time given to social hygiene. I
do not expect any teachor to
instruct my boy in this personal
matter, and I believe the teach
ers already have a burden heavy
enough, without shifting all tho
parents' duties to their shoul
ders. I do not believe there is
