'i Registration occupying most of tnq cmyi over o.oo were enrolled. '.A. large number of delegates and mothers from tho different circles of this city attended. Mrs. Carl Flchtner represented the city coun cil of Parent-Teachers of Medford. Tho evening session ' opened at 8 o"clock with Mr. A. Walker, vice- president of district No.. 10, pre siding. An interesting program was given, including vocal solos by James Stevens. Reports from all sections of Ore gon Indicate a growing interest in the plans and activities of the or ganization, 'according to tho dele gates' who- were In attendance at last, evening's meeting. Mrs. W. ,V. Gabriel of Portland stato president ;of the association, gave a most "interesting and in spiring nddress, as follows: My dear Member' nnd Friends of tho Oregon Congress of Parents and Teachers; "It is a 'fircat: pleasure to greet you and bid you welcome to this, our state convention. However di verse our general tastes and In terests may be, at this time, all else is- forgotten in our meeting together to consider ' that greatest of all assets to the human raeo, the child, (who must carry on the life of the nation when our short span Is closed). According to tho very nature of things, nnd because life is what It Is. surely the highest ambition of any human being should be to lift the quality of those who compose that nation whatever and wherever it Is, onto a higher and more perfect plane. Somo one wisely has1 said, 'Give me tho children of Just one gener ation nnd let them develop into perfect men and women, physical ly nnd morally, and most of the world's misery -nnd suffering w-iu be wiped out.1 Jf.'that were pos sible, nnd such halcyon days with in our reach," Would .we not all be eager to put our shoulders to the wheel? Becauso this Is not prac tical or possible, 'and because tho steps to perfection are slow and hard to climb, often -even Imper ceptible, we draw back and host tate, weary and laggard, with un fulfilled desires. "Nevertheless, for these high Ideals and endeavors there must bo concartf d, ,iKiyitcd effort the unity that brings strength. No Llojgo piir'nosc, good or cy.n, has reached its'onjecuvo wunoui mass formation. This rule obtains in this great forward movement for child welfare throughout the world, now numbering over two million persons, of which this group In Oregon Is an official part; our Na tional and International Congress of Parents and Teachers.." '(And so wo. tire met; here to consider well our task ns parents and as teachers In the Interests of the child, not only those of ten- dercst years, but throughout the various stages of childhood, pre school, grade, high school, yes, nnd bevond.

We nre here to study together every phase, each component pnrt of that child.

"Just then, ns we mut never fall to study tho whole child, we recognize also that our organiza tion too must' have Its complete enmnonent parts. Its machinery (its physical attribute); its gov erning regulations nnd Ihoughful administrations (the mental side). Bu the greatest of all must he -the underlying fnlth and love of sorv Ice for childhood which motivates the whole, and which hinds us to gether In one great common pur pose.

Here we trace again the sacred three: Physical, tho ma terial aids to our schools, the de sire for the best in buildings, equip ment of beauty and convenience, for teacher and scholar. Suitable bond Issues to make these pos sible. Our belief is well-trained and adequately salaried teachers. "Then our mental side parental education, keeping our minds alert and Interested in our children's school life. Keeping up with the parndo, that bravo and gay parado of youth, with laughter and music, banners streaming and held high. Oh, may they never, through fault or misunderstanding of either par ent or teacher, havo to trail those royal standards in tho dust, or lower them to a sordid code or embittered outlook. "Tho spiritual side of our Parent-Teacher program this is the Alpha and Omega the beginning and the end of our work, the .vital spark which nt once ener gizes and inspires the whole un dertaking." Which casts about it the glamorous spiritual atmos phere of a high pressuro purpose, as we learn to rely nnd lean upon that divino help and guidance of our Hcavnly Father which is never far from thoso who can pause for a moment from busy rushings to and fro to tuno In with the In finite, nnd link their puny strength with His. "As this organization has grown in numbers and strength, so it has developed theso thoughts in a well rounded program of objectives. Through these we find a well thought out consideration of the child In every stage. Beginning with the prc-schooi child In those priceless formative years, when parent hands can mold tho plastic clay for good or ill. What of these?. Are wo so competent nnd infallible that we have no need hero of special effort and train ing? If wo are, a heavy respon sibility lies upon us. Let us dis perse some of this superior knowl edge If possible, for tho good of less informed, less satisfied par ents, nnd let us meet nnd touch each other In the pro-school groups. "Along In the grades, what a vision of purposes, problems and opportunities rises before us our budding girls nnd boys with the first faint stirrings of great forces struggling within them. How they need u's close to them in loving sympathy and understanding. "Then tho high school yearsy porhaps tho most difficult of all because here personality begins to develop rapidly and thero is k nat-, ural drawing away from us, within their own natures. Oh, If we could only take It all less seriously and hroken-heartfdly and regard It Is Just another stago, at tho same tlmo realizing tho delicate situa tion, because hero Is tho acid test of past years' training nnd under standing. They will cither return with love nnd confidence renewed, or go their way.. Surely, hero we need to be grouped as parent allies ot the school. Is there any place along tho line whore parent love and parent power Is moro needed thnn nt this time? Grave prob lems we find now. Adolescence and health problems, serious and. growing more so, if we will heed the medical profession. This now Is considered the neglected ago. physically. Intensive study. Im proper nourishment ' nnd soclnl strain, all these arc taking thrlr toll. Is there no room here for closo cooperation between home nnd school? College yenrs, with all they entail of sacrifice and un derstanding on the part of the par ents. Increasingly difficult mod ern conditions make tho tasks of parents moro and moro difficult and complicated. Days of speed, has ever their equal been known In tho hlstorT of mnnklnd? The grcnter need then for the the head to combine forces with the heart In the rearing of our children In every stage of their lives, and yet how sad to find so mnny parents unawakened and Indifferent. What are the reasons? Mental laziness, perhaps, yes, and physical Inert ness, too, plays Its part In the eomedyi or tragedy of errors un fortunately only too evident. "Parenthood In theso latter days makes greater demands than ever. It must ut once bo a bird poised for flight, to follow youth in Its dreams nnd visions, and a homing ono to load It back to the shelter ing arms of a happy understand ing family circle. We hear so much criticism now ot our hoys and girls, and yet arc they th ones to blame? Horn, reared and educated In an environment gov erned and maintained by adults they cannot be held responsible for It, or for tho fact that In these days youth Is commercialized as perhaps never before. The 'la mentation of the elders' covers many subjects too elaborate sand- ardrf of dress, amusement and sf- clal life, all created, It must he remembered, and upheld, by hlgn ly organized commercial systems. Do not parents and tenchers need to comblno to check this too ex- travngant expression In our young people, for after all, does youth need these things to make for hap piness? Given a healthy body and sound mind, nerves untried and hounding spirits, with the love of. father, mother, brothers and sis ters around them, like a golden chain, their Inner lives can be se rene and calm, strong and Joyous. life before them unfolding like the pages of a lovely hook, their book of life. Let us help them to keep Its pages white and clean, then In later years, when the shadows of our own lives grow longer, and we go down the hill Into the glow ing sunset, we may have the realiz ation that we have done what we could."
