Flat Kate I FaTored.
-- Mrs. Mary I Fulkerson. superin-
tendent of Marion county, was noml
. nated yesterday for president of the
- Ktate Teachers' association at the
':, opening of the 10th annual session
attended by 1500 teachers from all
': parts of Oregon.
Nomination is practically equtva-
- lent to election in the association,
V since other nominations from the
floor have been made only once in the
history of the organization. The for
.; mal election will take place Friday.
C. A. Howard, superintendent of
Z schools at Vlarshfield. was nominated
- for vice-president and Miss Minnie
' Altman of Jennings Lodge and Miss
Eva Roche, city superintendent of
' Bend, as members of the executive
committee.
Retirement Fund Chanced.
The nominating committee was D.
. A. CJrout. city superintendent of
. schools; Miss Julia Spooner of Tort
land, B. W. Barnes, superintendent of
schools at Hillsboro; Karl Kilpat
rick of the University of Oregon and
A. C. Strange, city superintendent at
- Astoria.
A new system for a retirement fund
- -was adopted by the representative
. council after a hot discussion. The
plan would give an annuity of 50 a
." month to all teachers, superintend-
ents and principals at a flat rate. It
carried by a small majority over a
-. graduated plan based on salaries re
" ceived before retirement.
The retired teachers would be paid
. from a fund created by equal contri-
- butions from the teachers and from
the state. The plan will be submitted
to the legislature, A. J. Prideaux,
- chairman of the committee, said. The
. amount of money needed from the
- state cannot be determined until
actuarial tables are made based upon
the ages of all teachers in Oregon
Seventy Is Age Limit.
Teachers may retire after teaching
so years, according to the system ap-
proved and must retire when they
- are 70. They may be retired at 65 if
7, physically disabled. Full payment
. will be made to those who have
taught 20 years and are disabled.
The council decided to count a two
years' leave of absence in an advanced
institution of learning as part of the
.' regular time spent in teaching. This
is a new idea, not used in any other
state, said. Mr. Prideaux, and is in
J. tended to encourage a professional
spirit.
A new system of electing officers,
to be in force next year, formed the
other close fight of the meeting.
Hereafter officers will be nominated
' by a vote at large, sent in by regis
tered mail by all members of the as
sociation in the state.
7" The representative council will elect
- the officers from the five highest
nominees for each position. Accord-
ing to the present system, the nom
- lnating committee selects candidates
. and the whole association votes on
these names.
Pendleton Seea Plot.
' H. E. Inlow, city superintendent of
school in Pendleton, led the fight
against the adoption of the plan. He
stated that the five most populous
' counties could combine and succeed
in having their delegates elected
year after year. Prentiss Brown, su
perintendent of schools at Baker, sup
ported the proposed plan. He said that
teachers who are unable to attend
the association meetings will be able
' to express their choice by sending in
. votes by mail.
The election or secretary-treasurer
was also discussed. The committee
' on revision of the constitution sug
. gested that he be chosen by popular
' vote, but the council decided to leave
It as at present. The secrotary
- treasurer is now chosen by the execu
' tive committee.
The council voted that the associa
tion should affiliate with the Nation
al .Education association. rnis win
give Oregon four or five delegates to
the next convention, which meets in
Des Moines in July. A. C. Hampton
of La Grande, state director for Ore
gon, has telegraphed to determine the
exact number of delegates for this
date. The delegates will be chosen
before the association adjourns on
Kriday. E. F. Carleton, city superin
tendent of schols in Eugene, is one of
the vice-presidents of the national
association.

BT JOSEPH MACQUEEN.
A NOBLE bass voice of smoothness
and clarity, a distinct diction that
Is a joy, a fine, dignified stage pres
ence, a high-class dramatic Interpre
ter who makes his audience feel that
he knows them Intimately. -"An artist
who has such realism that he always
sings so that he tells a story and who
also entertains. -
Such are a few attributes awarded
to Arthur Middieton, bass-baritone of
the New York Metropolitan opera
company, heard In concert last night
in the Heilig theater, under the direc
tion of the Ellwyn concert bureau. The
audience was a large one, in which so
ciety and music circles were well
represented.
Mr. Middieton last sang in concert
tn this city about 12 yeate ago and
since that time he hr.s made wonder
ful advance in artistry.. Today Mr.
Middieton . has won his right to be
recognised as one of the big native
American concert rtars. one who
largely has been self-taught in vocal-
ism. His voice Is finely controlled
and he is successful both in pianissimo
and fortissimo etrects. He is em
phatically a manly singer. Probably
no more thrilling interpretations of
'Danny Deever" or the sea song,
How's My Boy:" as sucg by Mr. Mid.
dleton last night, were ever heard in
this city.
Even in rapidity of utterance as
noted in the delivery of euch gems as
Mendelssohn's "I Am a Roamer Bold"
and the famous "Lago al Factotum"
from the opera "Barbed of Seville,"
Mr. Middleton's vigilance never slept,
and it was possible to hear each word
that he sang a rare experience now
adays: In the Handel arias, Mr. Middieton
sang them in devotional, earnest
style, especially in the recitative, "1
FeeJ the Deity Within." The soulful
aria, "Where'er You Walk," was sung
with a certain smoothness of vocal
ism that left nothing more to be de
sired, and the phrase "Shall Crowd
Into a Shade" was a treat -for dicton
and poetry of finish. The great old
aria of Italy, "Lumgi del Caro Bene,"
and sung in Italian, was a gem that
had lasting appeal.
The two Homer songs, "Banjo Song"
and "Uncle Rome," were sung with
such depth of spiritual meaning that
they had to be repeated.
Mr. Middieton was royally received,
like an old friend. He was often re
called for applause and appeals for
extra songs, and those extras were:
"Young Tom-' of Devon" (Kennedy
Russell); "Sort o' Miss You" (Clay
Smith); "Standing in the Need of
Prayer" (Rennick); and "Noon and
Nighi (Hawley). When the concert
was practically concluded and after)
one extra number had been sung the
enthusiastic audience insisted on one
FISH CONTROL STANDS
PROPOSAL TO SEPARATE FOOD
SPECIES DEFEATED.
Washington State Game Officials
Ask for Many' Modifications
in Present Statutes.
OL.YMPIA, Wash., Dec. 29. (Spe
cial.) By a. vote of 13 to 2, the leg
islative committee of the Washington
State Association of Game Commis
sioners and Game Wardens, In annual
convention here, today rejected the
recommendation of the State Sports
men's association proposing the sepa
ration of control of game, fish and
birds from that of food fish. An
effort by C. W. Hessie, a delegate
from Yakima county, to bring up the
question on the floor of the conven
tin, was defeated, Hessie casting the
only vote in favor of the proposal.
The convention adjourned this
afternoon after re-electing by accla
mation the following officers: W. G.
Hufford, Skamania county, president;
Charles C. Clurr.pner, Spokane, first
vice-president; E. B. Palmer, King
more number. Mr. Middleton's good- county, second vice-president; I. H.
bye choice was "Swing Low, Sweet
Chariot" (Burleigh). It should be
kept in mind that Mr. Middieton sang
all the numbers of his programme
from memory, without one memo
randum to help him. A most pleasant
feature of the concert was the ex
quisite and able piano accompani
ments so artistically played by Dr.
John J. Landsb'ury, dean of music at
the University of Oregon, an old col
lege friend of Mr. Middleton's.
As I started to walk north on
Broadway after the concert I met in
passing a Portland woman who
writes poetry and who believes in
reincarnation and the after-life. "It's
the best concert I have heard in hun
dreds of years," she whispered.
DR. IT. W. COE DISCUSSES
STATCE OF ROOSEVEIT.
First Worte on Model Will Start
Soon in. Studio at Palo
Alto, Cal.
A. Phimister Proctor, the sculptor
for the equestrian statue of Theodore
Roosevelt, which Dr. Henry Waldo
Coe will present to Portland, arrived
here yesterday for a short visit. He
had a brief talk with Dr. Coe and
they will discuss further details oi
the statue today before Dr. Coe leaves
for Washington, D. C.
Mr. Proctor has been at work on
the Roosevelt statue for more than
eight months and has just completed
the final model, which has been ac
cepted by Dr. Coe. He will start
soon in his studio at Palo 'Alto, Cal.,
on the working model.
Mr. Proctor is considered the fore
most western sculptor. His work is
known all over the United States and
abroad. When a small boy he came
to this country from Canada and was
reared in Colorado. For the civic
center of Denver he has made "On
the War-Trail" and "The Bronco
Buster," . which are both typical
western statues.
The sculptor has always been fond
of the woods and has known wild
animals in their native settings. All
his early workr was concentrated on
animals. He modeled -the gigantic
lions at the base of the McKinley
monument in Buffalo, the pumas at
the entrance to Prospect park in
Brooklyn, the tigers that stand at
the entrance to Nassau hall in
Princeton and many others. Among
his best known work in Oregon is
The Pioneer.'V which was presented
to the University of Oregon by
Joseph N. Teal.
Mr. Proctor Is at the Imperial
hotel. '
Dills, Yakima, third vice-president; A.
J. Beach, Seattle, secretary treasurer.
Wenatchee was selected as the
place for the next annual conven
tion. The convention recommended
the enactment of legislation to per
mit the distribution of surplus funds
among the smaller counties for polic
ing the counties, and contingent upon
the passage of such legislation the
convention named an advisory com
mittee of five members to co-operate
with the state game warden in the
apportionment of such appropriation,
and in the supervision of the state
game farm.
The following were elected as mem
bers of the advisory committee: C. E.
M'ers, senator. Lincoln; W. M. Fisher,
Clallam; Clay Fruit, Okanogan; R. L.
Bradley, Skagit, and R- H. Anthony
San Juan.
Proposed measures considered by
the legislative committee, and by it
referred to the game committee of
the house and senate, included a pro
posal to require a license to trap fur
bearing animals; the question of dis
position of confiscated firearms, the
matter of aliens carrying arms and
the question of closing San Juan
county to deer for two more year
Recommendations to the game com
mittee of the legislature include the
prohibition of the use of high-power
rifles in hunting migratory birds,
making eastern Washington open to
buck deer only, and prohibiting hunt
ing from motor vehicles.

BAIL TANGLE BAFFLES
Man Attempt- to Revoke Woman's
Bond to Post His Own.
A. bail tangle was created in the
federal building- yesterday afternoon
following the arrest of A. D Shoot
and Margia Conn, charged with the
misuse of a railroad pass. Shoot was
said to have obtained a pass for the
woman, permitting her to travel over
the Southern Pacific lines from Port
land to Rio Grande, Texas, last July.
The woman was alleged to have gone
under the name of Mrs. A. D. Shoot.
Both were released under bonds of
$500 each, supplied by Shoot, follow
ing their arrest. Later Shoot was
again arrested on the-charge of .vio
lating the Mann act, and his bail was
raised to $1000. He appealed to the
woman to supply the missing $500,
claiming that she had that amount.
Margia Conn, however, had sustained
a change of heart and refused. Then
Shoot, through his attorney, Tom
Garland, atempted to revoke the $500
bonds which he had placed for her
But to do this it was necessary to
have her brought before the court
in lieu of the money, and she had dis
appeared in the interim.
When last seen .Tom Garland was
on a still hunt for the woman while
Shoot was resting Jn the marshal's
office. ... - .

Xorthwcst's Most . Distinguished
Living Pioneer, With Olhersr
Goes Back to Old School Days.
SEATTLE, Wash., Dec. 29 (Spe
cial.) Ezra Meeker, the northwest's
most distinguished living pioneer,
celebrated his 90th birthday anniver
sary tonight by "spelling down"
some 31 of his relatives and con
temporary pioneers in an old-fashioned
spelling bee..
Four generations of Meekers were
represented at the bee Ezra himself,
his children, his grandchildren and
his great-grandchildren.. And Ezra
had the opportunity of proving that
he's still the head of the famiiy, as
far as spelling goes anyway.
True, he won on a technicality.
After all the men of his own age
had been "spelled down," he insisted
that everyone soell after the fashion
of the first half of last century
"B-A, that's your bay, K-E-R, that's
your ker, baker."
Rule Sot Remembered.
His young opponents were unable
to remember the rule and Ezra
triumphed.
The spelling bee came as a climax
of a day that was crowded with
festiivties In honor of the nonagen
arian. There were many interest
ing features during the day but
none was either as amusing or as
pathetic as the bee.
The aeed pioneers who stood in
line forgot they had passed the Bibli
cal span of three-score years and ten".
forgot their infirmities and tneir
weakness, and went straight back to
the days when they attended the
primitive country schools of the '40s
and '50s.
'Master, master," piped one voice
from a man so old that it sounded
like a childish treble. "She didn't
spell right she's got to sit down."
None Thinks of Laughing.
And there wasn't a person in the
room, young or old. who even thought
of laughing when the outraged
speaked wiped a tear of righteous in
dignation from his eye.
It was all ever, however, in a few
minutes, and the youthful pupils be
came venerable old men again.
Dozens of pioneers came to the city
from all sections of the country to
help Meeker celebrate his birthday,
and no less than 20 of his direct de
scendants were present.
The celebration started at a local
restaurant where a clambake in
honor of the nonagenarian and his
fellow members of the borrowed-time
club ijas given.
Reception 1m Held Later.
This was followed by a reception
in the parlors of Plymouth Congrega
tional church, at which Chaplain R.
S. Stubbs of Tacoma, the only man in
the company who is older than Mr.
Meeker, made the principal address.
Mr. Meeker announced that Chap
lain Stubbs was 98 years old, but this
the little minister vigorously denied.
I m'only a little more n 97 and a
half," he hastened to inform every
one.
Among others who spoke at the re
ceptions were George H. Himes of
Portland, ourator of the Oregon His
torical society, and Georjre Longmire
of Yakima, both pioneers of '53; Mrs.
Samuel Green, Mrs. W. H. Reddington,
A. A. Knight, W. P. Bonney, secre
tary of the Tacoma Historical society,
and, of course, Mr. Meeker, who acted
as chairman.
Family Dinner Attended.
After the , reception there was a
family dinner at the Elks' club, which
was attended-by the following mem-
Ders oi Jvir. meeKer s immediate lam
ily: Mrs. W. E. Daniell of Camano, his
half sister, and- her three daughters.
Misses Olive, Beulah and Dorothy
Daniell; Mr. Meeker's three daugh
ters, Mrs. Ella A. Templeton, Mrs.

ANNUAL CLINTON" KELLY RE
UNION IS HELD.
Memories of OF Suimmin' Hole
Recalled and Portland Rcc
ollctions Swapped.
Memories of the ol' swimmin' hole
when Portland was yet young were
recalled last night when schoolmates
of a half century ago held their s"':
ond annual reunion at the Clinton
Kelly school. Many were aged and
bent, some were careworn and some
were younger in years, but all laughed
and chatted1 with tne carelejs abandon
of youth.
w hen it was over and those who
had attended the old Clinton Kelly
schdQl, known, 40 years ago as No. 2,
rose and sang "America," everyone in
the assembly appeared to have dropped
thA weiflrht of vears anr) hand-clasn-
ing and oft-told recollections were the
order. -
The women of the association pre
pared the luncheon. E. G. Jones, pres
ident of the association, called the
meeting to order. In- the audience
were Dr. Richmond Kelly, son of
Clinton Kelly, one of the prominent
first settlers of the city and a mem
ber of the first schoeH board; George
Lent, son of the first settler of Lents,
and other prominent pioneers and de
scendants of pioneers.
Another speaker was J. C. McGrew,
teacher at the school from 1879 to
1883, who advocated the "doctrine of
self-help" for the present generation
and asserted that soon the world mirst
begin to "evolute or revolute.
That fine buildings do not always
make fine schools was the declaration
of Professor Hoover, another teacher
of the school in its early days.
Mr. Jones was re-elected president
for 1921 and Loyal E. Kern, student
of '67, present secretary and treas
urer, was also re-ele-ted Commis
sioner John M. Mann, student of
81-2-3, spoke briefly. -
