TIIE MORXIXG OREGOMAN, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 2G, 1919. BQARO TO GO School Directors Will Show Teacher Consideration. HEALTH LAWS ARE UPHELD Member or Christian Science Church Blames Parents of Boy lor Presence in Schoolroom.. If the matter of dismissing or transferring Miss E. Cora Felt, first grade teacher in the Alameda park jschool, who is said to have permitted a boy Buffering: from smallpox to at tend classes. Is broujrht before the school board either through action of City Health Officer Parrish or by. pe tition from" the parents in the com munity, the directors will not render snap judgment on the case. Members of the board teald yesterday Miss Felt would be shown all consideration possible and a thorough investigation of the charge would be made. "We don't believe in breaking law of the health office," said A. C Newill, "but as members of the board we ought not to express an opinion until we have heard the case." Dr. K. A. Sommer, chairman of the board. agreed in this. Orton Would Kn force Rules. ' t There is no use having rules if they are not enforced," Director George Orton, added. "It Miss Felt ha.a not been reporting cases of ill ness she will simply-have to account' for it to the board." Less blame for the , miniature epi demic ot five cases in the first grade room resulting from smallpox con tagion first brought by small Bobbie Bush, is placed on Miss Felt than on the parents of the boy, who live at 92 Kast Twenty-eighth street, by members of the Christian Science church. Both the teacher and parents are followers of this faith. "If the boy was in the condition described by Dr. Parrish and H. i Bush permitted him to attend school, he deserves to be prosecuted,' said one member of the church yesterday. "The Christian Scientists of Portland merely ask for fair and just treatment of the case. The teaching of Christian Science demands of its adherents a wholesome respect for law and order." Teacher Aaeumes Responsibility, Members of the churah consulted both Miss Feit and Dr. Parrish yes terday. The teacher said that if she had been negligent it was ail in nocence on her part, as the rules do not require the reporting of illness to the principal of a building unless ab sence has been of more than three days duration. Miss Felt also said she was willing to take the blame If any fault were found, as she was re lying entirely upon -Mrs. Bush's ex cuse for the boy's absence. This ex cuse stated that he had apparently contracted a slight case of ptomaine poisoning. Dr. Parrish assured local church people he had no fault to find with Christian Scientists as a class, as they have always co-operated and reported cases of contagious diseases. 1 i' ' w-.n?''
