Typical Meeting of City's School Directors Described By Visitor From Voter League (KDITOl't XOT: nil K uotlvn tt MftM of irll't.1 rm tho total arhoul aTilom by tte fttaml of sovorsmtnl so tdo eotlos, Io(M of Worn VoUra.) No gavel was In sight, but when the man at the head of the table spoke the time-worn words conversation between the other men and women at the table eased oft and the meeting came to order. The board of directors of a business, the physical assets of which are valued at a million or more dollars, was in session. You, Mr. and Mrs. Tax Payer and Mr. and Mr. School Patron have a stake In that business, for this was a meeting of the board of directors of the elementary school of the city of Klamath Falls. It was the first meeting of the month of March. 1941. All five member were present a busi ness man. doctor, banker, a craftsman and housewife. Present, also, was the clerk who acta a secretary at all meetings of the board, and the superin tendent of the schools. The clerk read her minutes of the previous meeting. One noted such Item as the following: List of principal presented by Super intendent Wells and their re election recommended by him. Society of Gideon granted per mission to place Bible In every classroom of the city school. Complaint of parents regarding lire hazards at Riverside school was heard and discussed. Meet ing with the high school board recommended as step toward consolidation of the two dis tricts. So much tor the previous meeting. Teachers Wsnt Raise In front of the clerk was a pile of pink and yellow papers Interspersed with white. They were not there for decoration. More about them later. They come under the head of new bus iness. Right here a committee from the teachers arrived. To a disinterested observer the mem ber seemed diffident but deter mined. They came to ask for an increase In teachers' salaries. Their spokesman asked permis sion to present a system for in creasing the salary scale which the committee had worked out and which it wanted the board to adopt. He was only well launched with hi explanation when the door opened to admit the government and education committee of the League of Women Voters, paying its an nual visit to the board. The door that opened, by the way, is the one to room 7, Fremont school. There, all board meet ings are held. This Is Just In case you might want to visit it yourself sometime. You will be welcome. Visitors from county council, PTA were present, also, and the spokesman for the teachers con tinued hi talk. The plan he presented was too detailed for understanding with one reading. However, his arguments for an Increase in salaries seemed valid enough. The salaries decided on now will be in effect a year from now. Living costs are already rising due to the defense pro gram. Wages and incomes in other line are going up too, which may mean even greater increase in the price of things teachers must buy. Cuts taken during the depression have not been entirely restored. These were the main arguments pre sented. Of course, no decision was made on the request for higher salaries. The matter was taken under advisement by the board. Copies of the proposed salary schedule was left with the members for further study. The committee of teacher thanked the board for It kind attention and turning to leave almost collided with a man with a little black box. The photog rapher from The Herald-News had arrived to take couple of shots of the school board in ac When In Medford Stay at HOTEL HOLLAND Thoroughly Modern Joe and Ann Esrlsy Proprietors tion. Women voters and other visitors retired out of camera range. Two flashes like the rspld batting of the eyelids and the picture which accompanies this report was in the box. At last the way was clear for the routine business of the meet ing. Bills Read Said A. M. Collier, chairman of the board by virtue of senior ity of service: "You may present the bills. Mrs. Odell." And Mrs. Odell. who has been clerk of the district for many years, picked the first batch of pretty papers (you haven't forgotten them, have you?) from the pile in front of her and read off bills and Itemized statements, while Dr. L. L. Truax, G. C. Blohm, E. S. Robinson and Mrs. Anna Haw. kins moved, seconded and voted that each bill be allowed. Bills ranged in amounts from 07 cants to (490 and added up to several thousand They represented just one Installment if an annual expenditure that runs well over $200,000. No wonder Chairman Collier says that character and Integrity should be the outatand ing qualities that voters should look for in candidates who seek the Job of school director. When the bills were out of the way, Mrs. Odell read letter from the fire chief of the city relative to the fire hazard at the Riverside school. At the request of the parents of children attend ing the school, the chief had In spected the building. It ap peared from his letter that the seat of the official trousers had found the old spiral fire-escape at the school very sticky. The chief recommended that it be re placed by a more modern slide. The board voted to act upon this recommendation notwithstand ing the fact that Its several mem bers had, at the time of its own inspection trip on March 3, found the slide fairly "slick." They had tried it themselves, Mr. Collier stated, and with an unscheduled fire alarm had emp tied the building in forty sec onds. Nevertheless, the board voted to carry out immediately all of the recommendations made in the fire chief's letter, it being the opinion of the board that the improvements suggested will make the building as nearly fire proof as a building of it age and type can be made. This action was taken as an alternative to abandoning the school altogether and enrolling its pupils In other schools. This Important matter out of the way, the board was ready to hear from the women voters. Mrs. Harlan Bosworth and her committee were there as part of what the League of Women Vo ters calls a go-see project, the ob ject of which is a better knowl edge of the school system. Ques tions put up by Mrs. L. H. Stone for the committee brought out the information that school directors are elected; that the term of each Is three years; that terms overlap; that directors re ceive no remuneration for their services; that elections are non. partisan; that any qualified school elector may seek the of fice; that a qualified elector for school elections Is any citizen twenty-one years or older who has resided 30 days in the dis trict Just prior to the election and who is property owner in the district. The League of Women Voters was much Interested in the board's appraisal of the relative Importance of its major func tions.

Without sound fi nances, good teachers could not be hired or held, good buildings could not be provided or ade quate equipment secured. ' Some pUce along about here. Mrs. Bosworth stood up to say that, in her opinion, the teacher makes the school and to suggest that the board take very serious ly its duty of securing better and better teachers. While she had the floor, Mrs. Bosworth said tha ahe lamented greatly the lack of patron interest In the af fairs of the school and that one of the object of her committee' study of the schools was to find, if possible, some method of in tegrating the life of the home with the life of the school. On this note, the meeting that might be called a typical meeting with special features, adjourned. What kind of people are these school directors? Public spirit ed surely. They give their time, their thought, their energy to thl Job with no compensation except that which comes from the thought of work well done for their community. Their oc cupations have been mentioned. As to age, they are more or less on the middling side. If they are alow to accept Innovations, if they have the caution that comes with maturity, these traits, are balanced by the con fidence that successful experi ence ha brought. If they had a motto it might well be: Not the latest, but the best for our schools.
