Sheldon, of the university of Oregon. :h.. i.iplc was exhaustive!; treated tron s histori cal standpoint by Dr. Sheldon after i which the members discussed It free ly. The sense of the meettni was Uhen taken upon the various mooted points. Discussion centred for the most part about the various units ol school administration as found In the l ulled States. The first one considered was jthe plan of the township unit, which hits prevailed for the most part In , New England since the begtnutng of 1 American history. In h:s plan the town or township Is the unit, and the county and district arf unknown, ex cept as the needs of the sparsely set tled parts of New England have eaus jad the creation of districts. Another plan Is the county and dis i trlct plan, which prevails throughout :the South and West, and may be j termed the "Oregon plan " By this plan the state is divided Into coun ties, and the counties Into districts. Each county is supervised by a super intendent elected by popular suffrage land the local affairs of each district I are attended to by a board of direc tors elected from among the citizens 'of the district. A third plan is the "Utah plan." In which the unit is likewise the county, out in wnicn uiere are no uis trict boards, one board being elected for an entire county and assuming for the larger unit the duties per formed In Oregon by the boards of the smaller units or districts. A fourth plan, found in some of the states of the first Northwest, not ably Illinois. Indiana and the Dako- tus. is a mixture of the township and I county plans. It varies much In the 'several states In which II Is in Corce. Most of the members of the School masters' Club were of the opinion I that, however well suited the town shlp plan may he to the thickly set tled region of New England, the lime I Is yet far distant when It can be ac cepted with benefit In the South and West. For the same reason the I fourth plan, or mixture of the town ship nnd county plans, is not feasible in such a thinly settled state as Ore gon.

At the conclusion of the discussion, somewhat over sixty per I cent of the teachers present express led themselves as of the opinion lhat at the present time the Oregon plan is better suited to the needs of the state. Its advantages were held to be the maintenance of the American ' principle In school matters, and the ultimate though grndual attainment i,f efficiency through the fostering of lineal pride and Interest In schools. The (allure to get good teachers was assigned to several causes, among 'them being low requirements for cer tificates, low wages, and often a lack of sufficient care in selection on the part of local boards. Those present agreed that suhdl vision of districts is tottered by the low requirement of ten census pupils 'to organize a district and six to con tinue, and by the law which allows leach district three hundred dollars from the county fund. Fifteen pupils as a basis for the organization of a district was the minimum suggested. The lack sf efficient supervision was discussed with reference to the office of county superintendent of schools, as that officer is the sole su pervisor of the rural districts. In quiry showed the average snlary for county superintendents to be at least tin per cent below that of city super intendents in the county seats. Such a, salary, it was held, will not secure for n term of any length, an efficient ;iud successful teacher for this Impor tant position. That the fixing of the salaries of county superintendents has long enough been a matter for legisla tive lobbying, nnd that n statute should be passed fixing minimum sal rlsa for these officers In the several counties on the basis of school popu-1 latlon was th. sense of the meeting , A measure granting an Increase of; snlary for length of continuance IP office was not favored, iib It was t j. elared that such a provision v ,,nui plgc a premium on the dofe.p , ,,f a capable man when runnln fI)r re election.

SCIENCE PROVES WATER AND AIR ARE HEALTH cure him caused such comment, that science hat at last, in many Instan ces, been unable to fully account for the reason. The water at Pano Rohlea have been analyzed. Chemicals distilled by man have been apparently used for the same purpose as those to be found in the waters of Paso Kobles. Still the cures have not been forth coming and yet Biich cases find re lief in the baths at these Hprlngs. The recent successful treatment of Admiral Kvans has caused a new series of questions and argument! anions the world's scientific ineu. Admiral EQvaOfi had the beat of medical attention auoard ship, yet when he reached land he was ao weakened and In such palu that his Journey to PftJO Itobles had to be made In easy stages to prevent his collapse tron suffering. He apei:'. Ubree weeks at Paso Kobles and was so much benefited that he was sonti able to resume command ou the bridge of his flagship. The air at Paso Homes causes as much Investigation as the water, for It Is said that the peculiar and per fect air found there has as much to do with the curing of all diseases us the mineral baths. To the visitor in Derfeot beeUh Paso Kobles is a place of consumlnjc interest, while to the sick it Is a re treat almost beyond conception, IC their words of praise are heard.
