I trr- iifii & mm a 0 13 F 1 i F which followed, It was pointed out that It is not best for school boards; to purchase maps, charts, books, etc., from traveling agents. Their prices ure usually exhorbltant. and the price cr-aried for the same article frequent ly differs in the different districts. Sometimes through trickery and mis representation, the agents induce dis trict officers to sign for expensive apparatus that is not really needed in the school, the district warrants are sold to the banks, and the goods are rot delivered The speakers all agreed j that it would be best not to purchase I anything of agents, unless all of the I directors were together and even then j i. would be better to consult with the i Mipervlsur or the county superintend ent before purchasing, as these offi- j cers know best what is needed in the schools, are acquainted with the prl-: ces of the different kinds of scluwl apparatus, and know where the same can be procured to the best advantage. I Svcnks on Sanitation. rr. White spoke on "School Hy giene and Sanitation." He showed the ' dangers in the common drinking cup and open water pall, of poor drinking water, neglected outhouses, and the dust nuisance that Is so frequently met with in the country school-rooms. He emphasized the importance of hav ing a good janitor and in seeing to It that he does his work properly. After all, the health of the children Is the first consideration, and the speaker laid great stress upon the importance of proper lighting, heating, ventilation and cleanliness. He emphasized this by saying that he believed it would be better to have one month less of school, if it were necessary to do so, in order to have clean, sanitary build ings. In the afternoon, Superintendent Al derman gave a splendid address on "Industrial Work in te Schools." He showed the Importance of training the hand, as well as the mind of the child. He believes that It is just as important for the girls to know how to sew and make good bread, as It is to know how to work decimal frac tion and to parse verbs, and that the boys should be taught to take an in terest in the home and in the farm work. The speaker was applauded when he advised teaching the dignity o: labor, and overcoming the foolish no4ons that many people have, that the principal purpose of education is to teach children how to make a liv ing without work. Rural Supervisors. Superintendent Alderman spoke very forcibly about the new system of rural school supervision. He pointed out that supervision in the country is needed more than is supervision in the cities, because as a rule the young and Inexperienced teachers are sent into the country to teach. He showed that the whole cost of the two super visors in Umatilla county will be ap pioxlmately the same as the amount expended in the Pendleton school dis trict for supervising thirty teachers. He stated that in Marion county, and in other counties where he has in vestigated carefully, he believes the efficiency of the country schools had already been increased fully fifty per cent on account of the work of the supervisors. Many directors took part in the discussions which followed. With one exception, the directors who spoke favored the plan of having rural supervision, and told of the benefits It had been to their districts. One speaker who lives in Pendleton, and who owns much prorepty in the wheat section north of Pendleton, believed that it would be more economical to close the little country schools, to get along without the rural supervision, and send the children to the cities and trwns for their schooling. This plan met with a storm of protests from the country directors, who declared that they wanted their children educated 1 the country, where they would be away from the many temptations of the cities. At the afternoon session Mr. J. B. Savior of Ferndale, was elected chair man, and Mr. J. F. Wallen of Adams, secretary of the convention. Before adjournment a longer session next yfar was urged as some of the im portant topics on the program had to be omitted for want of time. There was such great Interest manifested, that the meeting was loath to break up, and it was after five o'clock be fore the meeting adjourned. The dis ttlct officers left for their homes feel ing that the day had been very profit ably spent, and that much good had been accomplished. SMUGGLING OF WAR 1 Hru.--ton, Ttxas, Dc. 19.
