TEACHER DEMAND BRISK
Increased wage Fails to Hold In

SPOKANE, Wash., June 17. (Sne

from 25 to 50 per cent during the last

of the grand lodge session yesterday.
Removal, of the entire set of offi
cers and the revocation of the spe
cial dispensation sets a precedent- in
the grand lodge, it being the first?
time in history that such drastic
action has been deemed necessary.
According to unofficial informa
tion, officers of Alberta lodge were
removed because of improper conduct
on the part of some. In view of the
fact that the grand lodge sessions
are secret and that grand lodge offi
cers did not deem It expedient to issue
any statements in regard to the grand
lodge action in connection with Al
berta lodge, details were not avail
able. ,
Dr.' William J. Kerr, president of
Oregon Agriculti .-al college, was
elected master of the grand lodge,
the highest honor that can be given
to a member of the grand lodge. Dr.
Kerr advanced to the master's chair
from an appointive office.
Other officers elected to office were
as follows: Frank S. Baillie, deputy
grand master; George B. Browri.

Then to the great general nubile
I make a broader appeal. There are
perhaps 60.000 cars in Portland. Five

'0M0RR0W afternoon, Saturday,
June 19th, between the hours of 12
noon and 8 in the evening, the tax
payers and voters of this city and
school district No. 1 will decide whether or
not this community is to support and en
courage our system of elementary, common
and high schools by giving the material
support which they demand.
The proposed millage tax measure will
by no means supply the grounds, buildings
and equipment needed at the present time.
It will, however, form a beginning in the
work suspended by and through the war.
It is without question one of the most im
portant matters ever placed before the
voters.
A bond issue for this purpose last year
brought forth less than five per cent of the voters and over half of them
voted adversely. . If the millage tax is defeated it will" be a blow to the
national popular system of education to which our nation is committed
hard to estimate and lasting in its evil effects. Only taxpayers may
vote upon this measure, although every parent, every citizen is and will
be affected by the result.
Our Government rests upon the intelligence and education of the
voters and that intelligence and education must come to the great mass
of children through our elementary schools.
Our common schools have for their purpose the creation of a com
mon family wherein the distinctions and differences of race, creed,
wealth, social position are lost or blended in the one common purpose
the creation of a true citizen.
The writer is a candidate for the position of school director two
are to be chosen. Every voter, taxpayer or not, is entitled to cast his
ballot for these. It is an important office, carrying great responsibflity
in every definition of the word. A resident of thirty-nine years in
this community, citizen, parent, taxpayer, calls for no extended auto
biography. x It does demand, however, a clear statement of his views. The writer
believes our public schools should include all material things and in the
highest degree ample grounds, suitable buildings, modern equipment.
We cannot afford to deny the forty thousand school children in this city,
the generations born and unborn, the needed things which money
can buy.
Further, an administrative force of ficers and teachers consecrated
to their task, carrying on their work with a high purpose and a firm
resolve to create as far as may be humanly possible, by virtue of their
work, fine men and women, who will live and work together through
life, human inheritors of a blessed heritage.
And these teachers should be so compensated that our schools will
attract the best in the land, who will serve faithfully and efficiently
until at last when the infirmities of mind and body come to pass, there
, shall be provided pension, retirement fund, whatever form it may take
as will provide suitably for those who have devoted their life to
that which the writer believes to be one of the highest and noblest of all
callings. !
And he believes that with schools so conceived there is, and should
be, no room or need for the elementary private or parochial school.
These rest upon differences of social position, wealth, or religious bias
and tend to create class, caste differences contrary to the spirit of our
people. . .
The right education of our children is today the greatest question
before us and constitutes the national crisis. Voters should consider
well all these matters, parent or not; every taxpayer, every citizen is
concerned in the well-being of these schools and deeply concerned in the
type of men and women who have to do directly with their control.
Faithful, honorable service as a school director involves a sacrifice
in every sense of the word and no one realizes this more than he who
signs his name. Elected or not, he is committed wholly and unreserv
edly to the belief .that in our public schools lie the well-being, the per
manency, the fabric of this Nation.
