We, the teachers of Morrow cotinty.
in annual institute Bssemoled, submit
the following resolutions:
We wish to extend thanks to the
County School Superintendent for the
successful organization and managemeoi
cf this institute ; to the Heppner tcbool
board who have so kindly allowed us
the npe of the school building; to the
citizens of Heppner for their interest in
our institute work; and to those in
charge of the Christian church for the
use rf the church building.
We are especially ttiankf;il to the in
structors for the encouragement and
help which we have received during this
meeting, and to Mr. Jones for his ai J in
conducting the singing and for his very
interesting talk on the "Oregon School
Law."
Whereas, a recent law of the Legisla
ture compels the teacher to file his con
tract with the superintendent before
commencing pcnori or lorieit Ms wages
until such filing has been made. The
reason given for such action is that
clerks faded to register contracts. Since
school boards frequently refuse or ne
glect to make out said contracts until
school begins, be it resolved, that it is
the desire of this instita'e, since this
law is unreasonable and unjust, that the
burdens, sins, and omissions of the
whole world should nt be heaped upoo
the shoulders of the teachers.
Whereas, in the application of the law,
providing for the expenditure of the li
brary fund of the oanierous school dis
tricts of the state, several cases have
arisen in which the library commission
ha made the selection for various Me
tric s and in theee selections the W.
already on hand have been dupKockwi
in many instances, thereby proving
'aw to he impracticable avd wasted iff
the funds, be it resolved, that it hj &
desire of this Institute that the a- 6
left entirely in the hands of the eeceal
school districts.
Whereas, in the recent adept off
text books for use in the public
of the state tnere-have been defty ia
securing the said books whicb fcer
been very detrimental to the proewnw
and accomplishmen. of the grade wcfc.
be it resolved that we desire the lev
governing the ad ption of test boeks .
be so amended as to make the ee&w
ion durioe the first week in Jantv
before their introduction into ek
schools on the following September.
For the betterment of our naVfe
schools and as a duty which we w
our Oregon boys and girls, we as a ff
of teachers do recommend to our feoco
able Senarors nd Representatives, tftti
they devise some means whereby w.t
uimwitfu ecnooi district in this t&
may have nine months of school ecrfi
year.
Whereas some school boards, in ttm!
district, employing but one teacher fl
ench school, demand work above &
eighth grade, he it resolved, that prrfi
rei'iirements must result in superSrxtl
work and thereby deprive the pupi-is L
the common school grades of thebft
of that well grounded knowledge of
foundation elements of a practical eli
cation to which they are legally ent5l
and that such requirements arecontrtrr
to the spirit and intent of our scbl
law.
Whereas, the hw governing
grades, issuance, and time in force of
certificates or licenses to teach has
materially the same for the past tkkr
years in Oregon viz.: that of a
grade, second grade, and first obtsil
on an average Dercent nf -m
in the several branches nf abjut eec!B-ty-five,
eighty, and ninety p rcetU re
spectively' that only one third and siw-
one second grade shall be issued I ra
any one teacher, and thai the tbarcw '
thionghout these thirtv jears his ktr..
that this system forces the teacher &m
advance in his profession and ic n
feseional ability, and ultimately
to the state a higher grade of prcScL
ency on the part of the teachers, ami
that the poorer teachers will be etisal
from the profession ; And after 4faacfsr
years of this general pl.in we find
a large percent of the certificates teat
at our semi-annual eliminations are iff
the third and second erades and ut
the holders of the more recent to-
grade certificate generally take 3i
places of other second and third gnff
teachers and generally in the Rural i-a-tricts;
Thus the fact is apparent &
manv, if not the maj irity of on r real
schools, are tauaht by teachers of
or no escperiencs and of suoh grade iC
proficiency th2t is ru ed out or dewtsi
a certificate of the second or fi'st gr&.V
Therefore be it resolved, that if m.
teacher ie fit to teach school oe yetr
he is fit to teach as long as he lives arl
that if he is not fit to teach as lirg na
he lives he is not fit to teach at
that there should be some wav of
termining the fitness of a peisuo tu
teach with ut having to impose uTt
the chilJren of rural schools teackr
after teacher who is l iter ru'el out if
the profession and so we recorame&l.
that tne law be amended so rs to -stot
licenses to teaclnonly to those wt.a
deemed to be fit to tench as lon
, . ,
ue, in ine saie m.mner as licenses
issued to lawyers, doctors, pilots, oi

in which for the time heing the lire i-T
