Schools Suffer in
Wartime Crisis
In times such as we are under
going there is one phase of our na
tional life which suffers visibly and
that is our school system. It is appar
ent on every hand and has school
authorities worried to do something
about it. This, in effect, was what
Miss Florence Beardsley told the
lions club in regulor meeting at
the Lucas Place Monday noon.
Oregon, which is noted for its lack
of support to the public school sys
tem, according to Miss Beardsley, is
struggling to maintain schedules
and keep schools in operation or
provide educational facilities in re
mote areas. It is not a bright pic
ture, the speaker stated and one
that is apt to grow more accute as
the war progresses.
Morrow county schools are view
ed in a favorable light in the words
of the speaker, who stated that
while connected with the Oregon
College of Education at Monmouth
she hadl an opportunity to study re
cords of the schools here and that
graduates receiving contracts to
teach here were congrtaulated by
faculty members upon their good
fortune.
Some change in school financing
and a higher teacher pay scale will
have to be accomplished if Oregon
is to keep abreast of the educational
facilities offered by neighboring
states, Miss Beardsley concluded.
Guests besides Missi Beardsley in
cluded Mrs. Lucy Rodgers, Mrs. O.
G. Crawford and Evangelist Willie
White.
The theme for National Business
Women's week, Oct. 11-17, is "Wo
man's Work in the War." An inte
gral part of the federation's war
program for 1942-43 will be the ef
fort of women through out the
country to stress standards and
performance in the battle for pro
duction. National Business Women's week
has become a national inst.tution.
The first observance was in 1928,
when Emma Dot Partridge was ex
ecutive secretary. The national fed
eration has grown in that time from
874 clubs and 50,000 members to
975 clubs and 76,000 members. It is
now organized in every state in the
nation, District of Columbia, Alas
ka and Hawaii.
Mrs. Robert Owens of Tacoma is
visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
