Oregon Ktale Hotel association.
the convention will convene in
Hoseburtf on Katurday, July 21, at
0:110 n. in., and after luncheon and
sightseeing will hold n business ses
sion lit which the main address 1
be delivered by John A. YVesterlund
of Medford. At .r):.'!l p. in. the con

for Medford, where that evening Ihey
will be specially entertained.
At !l a. m., Sunday, July 22, the
hotel parly will go on n Kiejitsccinif

lowing luncheon al noon, at 1 p. in.

On Monday, July 2.'t, the eonvenlion

hotel people from 1'orlland an. I the
northern cities and towns, us well
as those from central and western
Oregon, will depart for Portland.
During Ihe convention addresses
on hotel subjects will be given by the
following well known hotel people:

schools, esH'eially of the high school,
should be raised, so that graduates
can be admitted direct to the fresh
man class in Ihe colleges a ml uni
versities, without having to spend n
year in preparatory work, ns lias
been I he ease for some time.
Drs. Kiddle and Porter ulso de
clared emphatically for n raise in
teachers' salaries, especially in the
high school. Air. Nordwick also de
clared in favor of this, but deemed
Hint it would he unwise lo raise the
salary of any teacher or teachers
who had been hired for the eimiin"
year and who hail already signed eon
Iraels. lie also pointed out (hat thisl
Mould not be done unless the state
of finances permitted it. Air. Palmer
held much the same views as Air.
Nordwick.
No net ion was taken, but Die board
will give the niatler very careful eon
sideriition. The new board member:
are especially anxious that promises
inaile certain teachers a year ago of
a substantial raise, but later repudi
ated because of financial straits, be
carried out if possible.
Hoard In Patriotic.
The board iiiianituously voted to
give Principal ('miner, of the Wash
ington school, indefinite leave of ab
sence, ami lo retain his position for
him until the idose of Ihe war or until
he returns from the war. Principiil
('miner enlisted in the Seventh com
pany shortly al'ler war was declared,
lie is at present visiting relatives in
l.os Angeles.
The matter of purchasing wood for
the., schools mid repairs on the high
school healing system were also dis
cussed. Mids for furnishing wood will
be advertised for at once.
"Why, certainly I'll not make n
legal fight to retain Hie position of
clerk," said Mr. Sline, following the
meeting. "During my four years in
the office I have served Hie office
conscientiously and to the best of
my ability.
"Hul the new hoard feels that it
wants another man for the position,
and I will put no stumbling block in
liiission on .its way. .Mr. lieddin, Ihe new clerk.
iscnsii of I is an able mail ami a good man, mid
that the cf- will make an excellent official. I
the Mc.Iford i wish Ii "in Well."
Moilford waa Bnuhbed by the mem
bers of the Belgian commission to
the United States, perhaps uninten
tionally, who passed thru Medford
on train 13 at 9:05 tills forenoon, and
remained In tho city five minutes.
The blame for the snub lies In some
way with the Portland chamber of
commerce.
Yesterday morning, on learning
that tho commission would pass thru
Medford on today's train, enroute
to San Francisco from Portland, May
or Gates sent a telegram to the com
mission in care of tho chamber of
commerce of Portland, Inviting the
commission to be the guests of the
city In an automobile ride from Med
ford to either Ashland or Ilornbrook,
where they could again hoard the
same train on which they would get
off at Medford.
Invitation Not Answered.
No answer has yet been received
to tho telegram, and none probably
will ho. All arrangements had beon
made to meet the train but this morn
ing, no answer having come either ac
cepting or refusing tho invitation,
Mayor Gates and tho other prominent
citizens, who had planned the small
reception and tho ride, feeling the
snub keenly, called the affair off and
did not even appear at the depot.
Tho commission occupied two spe
cial ears attached to the rear of the
first section of train 13, but not one
of its members appeared on the plat
forms of tho closed cars or even
luoked out of a window during the
five minutes' stop of the train. Nei
ther did 'Hugh Gibson of the stute
department nor any of the other
American officials with tho party.
Surprise txi l'aiiy.
A young man sitting on the rear
platform of the last coach seemed
very much surprised when asked why
none of the party appeared, and when
told of the nvltation and evident
snub said that- there must be a mis
take of some kfnd, as he was positive
that no one on board had ever heard
of the Invitation. He ventured the
further Information that the members
lot the commission were all tired out
from the reception and entertainment
given them at Portland yesterduy,
and that most of them were not yet
up.
Assistant Superintendent Connolly
of the Southern Pacific, from Port
land, who had charge of the two spe
cial cars and all arrangements along
tho route, finally appeared on the
platform. He, too, was astonished to
learn of the Medford Invitation, said
that It was all news to him and that
he was sure that none of the party on
board had ever heard of It.
Wlio Members Aio.
It is probable that Mayor Gates will
write to the Portland chamber of
commerce for an explanation of why
tho telegram was not delivered. The
commission was the guest of tho Port
land chamber all day yesterday and
until a late hour last night.
Membors of the Delglan party are:
Baron Moncheur, chief of the special
mission to the United States; Lloilten-
ant-General LcClercq, chief of the
Belgian military mission to the Uni
ted States; Major Ostorrloth, battal
ion commander of the First regiment
of guides in the Belgian army; Hugh
Gibson, representing the state depart
ment of the United States; Captain T.
C. Cook, United States army, military
aide from the United States army to
General LeClorcq; and James C.
Whitney, of the Belgian legation In
the United States.
