SENATE WOULD KEEP
THE NAVAL MILITIA

If the lower house and the governor
agree the Oregon Naval Militia will
be retained, and will remain as a part
Of the Oregon National Guard, not
withstanding bill for its abolition by
Senator Dimick, and another for its
segregation from the National Guard,
by Senator Joseph. This decision was
reached by the senate yesterday after
noon,
Senators Joseph, Dimick and Carson
were named as special committee to
investigate the affairs Of the naval
militia, including certain scandals con
nected with the organization in the
last year. Each of the members of
the committee submitted different re-
ports. Senator Carson reported in
favor Of retaining the state naval
force under the same regime as at
present. Senator Joseph favored its
retention, but its segregation from the
national guard, while Dimick favored
its completion from the list Of organ
izations maintained by the state Car
sons report was adopted, with 90 sen.
ators voting in favor yesterday. The
Dimick and Joseph bills will be with.

REFUSED TO ABIDE
BY THE SCHOOL LAWS

For the reason Miss Nelson, former
teacher in the Highland school, failed
to give the school board at least thirty
days notice, her resignation which
was submitted to the body last Satur-
day night has not been accepted and
the members of the board are unde-
cided as to what further action should
be taken under the circumstances.
The school law provides that upon
the resignation Of any school teacher,
a thirty days notice is required be-
forehand in order to enable the auth
critics of the school to secure the Ser
vices of another teacher. Miss Nelson
failed and, 1t Is said, refused to give
the required notice Of her resignation
and left Salem to accept a position in
Multnomah county schools. Her res
ignation was submitted last Saturday
night, but upon the recommendation
of Director A. A. Lee, was not accept
ed.
It seems that Salem is being made
the Mecca for young teachers desiring
reputation, to enable them to seek
higher positions in larger cities, Many
Of the teachers first serving in the
Salem schoole, have lent for larger
cities and secured splendid position
upon the recommendations given then
by the local authorities.
According to Director Loe, to permi
a teacher to leave her duties in tn,
middle Of the school year without due
notice is a vJry poor policy to follow
He suggested last Saturday night tha
tho superintendent Of the Portland
schools be apprised Of the irregular
action taken on the part Of Miss Mel
son and that she at least be required
to recognize the rules under whicl
she was employed by uhe Salem scnOO
board, and as they are laid down by
the general school laws. Mr.. lie,
does not believe it fair for Multnomal
county or any other county TO CLAIM
tho services of teacher in a distric
in which she was appointed to scry,
for the ensuing school year,
According to the school laws Miss
Nelson's certificate can be revoked
now that she has failed to give due
notice of resignation from a position
but It is not probable the Salen
school board will take action in thi'
direction.

YOUR CHILD'S HEALTH
YOUR FIRST THOUGHT

If you have children, naturally
your first thoughts are for their
health. You certainly want them to
develop strong healthy constitutions,
The most careful attention must be
given when children show the first
symptoms of the many common all
ments, Perhaps they are weakly and
thin, or grow too fast, thus sacrific-
ing strength. These and other ap-
parently minor ailments may be the
forerunner to a weak constitution for
life.
Such children need Jayne's Tonic
Vermfuge which Is essentially a
childrens tonic. First of all, 1t will
properly care for the child's stom-
ach. 1t will also improve the appe-
tite, and will add strength to the
other organs Of the body. In cases
of thin or impure blood, 1t increases
the number Of red corpuscles enab-
ling the enriched blood to keep the
body healthy and strong.
Among the most common ailments
that children develop is that of a
disordered stomach, leading to an
impaired digestion. In many cases
this trouble is due to parasites in
the intestinal tract. TO correct such
trouble, Jaynes Tonic Vermifuge Is
unsurpassed
For more than 80 years millions OF
children have been restored to health
through the use Of this tonic. In
