TO teachers ond school officers of
Jackson county:
You have probably read and
thought considerable about the pres
ent school situation and what seems
to be expected of us; and 1 am won
dering if "we are united in a realiza
tion of what the new demands in edu
cation really are. As I look at the
situation it seems to me that the pub
lic, generally speukinK, cldes not fully
appreciate the fact that good teach
ing 'is an absolute necessity in. the
preservation of the union. We must
have a more intense devotion to edu
cation. We must have school admin
istration of the highest type, hacked
by. unalloyed patriotism in teachers
and by a willing financial support of
those who pay the bills. Do we have
all these? is not public sentiment u
little ulitocratic rolativo to school
finances? Should wo expect the com
ing generation to he democratic if it
is brought up under such conditions?
So many inquiries 'from both teach-
ers and board members have been re
ceived lately relative to salaries for
.'the coining, school year, that I have
thought It best to address this circu
lar' to' iteachers and school officers
both. The situation must be met fair
ly and squareiy. It is encouraging to
! note that some board members nud
others are making an effort to meet
the present needs.
The number of teachers attending
the normal schools in this country
has decreased over 10,000 during the
nast t'hroo' years.' The number of
graduates .is .also decreasing, altho
the number remained nearly constunt
during the war,.due partly to the fact
that in' many cases the bars to grad-
uation"were let down at that time.
The reason for the decrease in atten
dance at the normals and also in
, number of. graduates is obvious
! v Teachers! wages are not attractive.
.j',jUrogtta how has a shortage of over
jj'rJne. hundred teachers, with about
tjfpur times that many who are below
i Standard; It nas been premciea mui
'.Oregon will have a shortage of about
(five hundred teachers this coming
jshool year unless something is done

Don't-leavo this job for anyone else.
' If the bill does not carry a number of
schools. In Jackson county will he
without teachers!
Wbile.it Is generally admitted that
salaries should be at least 'double
what they now are, it would seem
best that a rather conservative sched
ule should be adopted especially foV
the minimum wage.- Many districts
are able to pay far more than this
schedule of minimum salaries indi
cates. and should do so.
The minimum wages recommended

perienced, with only a high scnooi
