Arani, Agent CHILDREN'S RIGHTS UPPERMOST!! STATE One Hundred Schools Closed In Oregon Last Year Due to Teacher Shortage. Every community needs teachers. In every locality are many persons who would majie good teachers but who do not enter the profession. Also In every community there are teachers who are planning to leave and go elaewbera to teach or to enter other professions. Why? . Salary partly, but mostly because the teacher like the prophet, la without honor In his own country. Making tha home schools safe tor home talent will help to solve the teacher ehortage. There must be good salaries, of course. Teachers teach because they need money. There must also be sane protection against tha spoils systnm. It Is an old story In many communities for a new super lntendent and kts assistant to find Jobs tor their friends at the expense of local teachers, or to belittle them sp that thoy must resign la self-respect Does the community know about It or do anything about It? Do the patrons ot each school know the m terlal ot the teaching force? If they have an up-to-date, accomplished, gift ed teacher, will they encourage her with salary lnoreases and back her against unfair discrimination? How many good teachers have left the community, and why? That will tell the story. How many young peo ple who would make fine teachers are doing something else Instead? Keep the home fires burning until all the cumbering dross and all the unfairness ,whlch Is driving home teaching talent away from home Is burned up, and then see how rapidly the teacher shortage becomes a thing of the past, Oregon oan remedy her condition by voting "Yes" for the 2-mlll Elementary School bill, popularly known aa the CaUdren'a Bill.
