The Toledo school board met last
Friday night and elected the following
teachers for the ensuing year: Princi
pal, George Bethers; intermediate,
Miss Jennie J. Maxwell; primary, Miss
Eebah Gang. It would be altogether
superfluous to give our readers an in
troduction to Mr. Bethers. His selec
tion is an emphatic endorsement of his
previous good work in the same posi
tion. Miss Maxwell came to Lincoln
county with first class recommenda
tions, and her recent success with the
Parfish school and work in the county
institute a few weeks ago have proven
her ability to the satisfaction of our
ichool board, as well as numerous
friends. Miss Gans also was one of
the shining lights In the institute, and
is an enthusiast in primary work. This
is her fort possibly her mission and
the little ones will be in good hands.
In education as in every thing else a
Rood start is all-important. The
obinioa. Is almost unanimous I hat the
cbooi poard has selected the cream
from among a large number of appli
cants.
We are compelled to reject certain
communications this week because the
wtnors have requested that their
"ames be withhold. The Leader has,
upon several occasions, explained the
reasons for this. All matter pnblic
interest for publication ia deemed
publio property and if a person is really
working for the woll-fare-of the com
munity he will not seek to hide his
hght under a bushel. Contributions of
nwit are appreciated, but we in
sist that in all instances relating to per
sonal or public matters, the signature
t-e author must go with the article.

County, Oregon, Friday,
HONORS FOR TOLEDO.
Local W. R. 0. Captures State
Convention at Portland.
The convention of the Women's Re
lief Corps, Department of Oregon, held
at Portland last week, resulted in some
pleasant surprises for the people of To
ledo. Mrs. Rose Schenok was elected
Department President and the respon
sible position of Department Treasurer
was given to Miss Mamie Wakefield.
There was a spirited but good-natured
contest over the first office, but the
winning blarney of one of Toledo's
delegates, Mrs. Matilda Espy, ably as
sisted by Mrs. Bethers, color bearer,
and Miss Wakefield, the other delegate,
brought homo the plum. Our private
dispatches say one Portland member
became slightly vexed and accused Mrs.
Espy of being Irish. Wasn't that
mean?
Throe members of the executive
board also hail from Toledo. They are:
Maybel Bethers, Matilda Espy and Ada
Soule.
As this was decidedly Toledo's inn
ing, President Sohenck deemed it
eminently proper to hand the state
secretary's portfolio to Mrs. Ina Stur-
devaut an excellent selection, by the
way.
The victorious Toledoites. except
Miss Wakefield, arrived home Monday
evening and were met at the depot by
several fellow-members of the W. R. C.
and also a delegation of the G. A. R.
The enthusiastic company immediately
proceeded to the hall, where one of
thoae famous W. R. C. lunchss had
been prepared. The "high spirits" and
over-supply of fine eatables blended
harmoniously, and it was a very enjoy
able occasion.
The Leader congratulates Abe Lin
coln W. R. C. No. 49 upon the manner
in which it has been recognized an
honor which it entirely merits. It is
numbers considered, the best Corps in
the state, and its members have
proper respect for the much, abused
word, "Fraternity."
