tion is that the teachers of the state
of Oregon should organize for the pur-
tvnKft of niittinp- forth a united effort
for the purpose of raising the prof- j
fesional standard of teacners, in ora-
er to secure the best results; and
tr this nd we suasest that a six
weeks' summer Normal be placed at
some place convient to the teachers
of this part of the state."

ture by Dr. Stansfield, "Dr. Jekyl and
Mr. Hyde," as well as in President

tion of the Future; What Will It Be?"

ciation voted to reorganize, and adopt
