What School Director A. C. New
ill Learned, at N. E. A. Gather
ing Given In Nine-Page Report
Director AC. Newell -attended the
convention of the National Education
association t In Salt Lake City. Di
rector Newell complied with the recent-ruling
of the school board that
everyone, attending conventions at
public expense should report on the
meeting by filing with the board a
nine-page single-spaced typewritten
account of all the Ideas gained and
the subjects he heard discussed while
at the convention. ( f
' Briefly, Newell learned:
That 'there are soundless partitions
which may be placed in portables : that
we must have standards to decide
whether we are occomplishing physical
education or not ; that nutrition, height
and weight must be standardised ; that
there Is a laxness among teachers, caus
ing them to brealc - contracts, which
school boards should not allow to go
unchallenged , that 1 legislation giving
elasticity to school boards In the matter
of wages is needed ; that AmericaniSa
tion mast be taught to foreigners in
their own language ; that statewide tax
ation is necessary to secure equal op
portunities for city and country schools i
that larger salaries are desired by
teachers; that every budget which is
not twice that of 1915 is retrogressive
educationally : that the number of pu
pils in a building doea not necessarily
define the sise of the building; that
1000 pupils is the limited number in a
school over which proper supervision
can be made; that the spirit of coop
eration : between faculty and student
must be inspired and students must be
taught to reaipect the ' rule of the ma
jority : that school boards and school
superintendents need - to be improved :
that unrest among teachers is caused by
lack of sympathy between teacher and
administration and Insecurity of tenure ;
that teachers should have more person
ality ; that Miss Ethel Salisbury of Berk
eley is the ideal person for director of
primary education in Portland t that
Salt Lake City schools- don't come- up to
Portland's and the great work being ac
complished by -the Opportunity school of
Denver, where all' ages are invited and
special training is given to fill the pe
culiar needs of the different individuals.
