I he public has a right to know any thing it wants to know about public affairs, so if I can shed a ray of fight I shall do so. Given life and health I hone to con tmue in the county superintendence until alter the school fair in septem ber. I have been planning and work wig with the teachers and pupils for the school fair next autumn, and 1 want to complete my obligation to them in this. After that, if the salary remains the same as it is now. 1 shall drop out at the first convenient stop tiing place, if the people wish mv se'r vices, and if they see that the possibil ities in the position are large, and if thev feel that the worker is worthv of a fair return for his work, 1 shall give my time and best energies to the schools of the county. Under no con dition will 1 accent two school rxsi tions again. Of that i have had enough, plus. The county superintendency is poten- tially the finest, largest work in Hood River county. The only limit to the work is the inclination and the capacity of the worker. More than 2,000 letters and 600 other pieces of mail must be sent out every year. The county su perintendent should be able to get into the schools and come to know all the pupils and do some teaching, especially the seventh and eighth grades. With out knowing them well he cannot pro mote them intelligently. He should have a part In all school affairs in all communities and help to bring that hu man touch deeply and warmly into all school activities. In any event. 1 have had a delightful time in differing and in agreeing and in associating with the people of Hood Kiver county, and I thank you kindly lor all courtesies. Your bread is light. your drinks leave a clear head, your hearts are large and your children are an inspiration to all of us to live and work lor bigh ideals. Faithfully yours, L. R.
