Governor NJ. Alexander spoke on
state matters, declaring that the hand
ling of the state government should be
above politics, that it should be a busi-
ness affair. He congratulated the
teachers upon their calling and their
devotion to it and said they were in
list of tn: ee classes which We're giving
noble service to the government
First he declared was the soldier who
went to the front for his country
ready to sacrifice his life if need be:
second, the justices of the United
States supreme court, who took their
position for salaries of less than one
third what they could otherwise make
and third, the school teachers, who
gave their time. their education. their
patience and their persuasion to the
child for its moral and educational
uplift.
W. r. Siders of Pocatello urged all
members of the association to be rep
resented at the National Educational
association meeting to be held at Port,

RESOLUTIONS PASSED.

Resolutions passed by the associa-
ton were as follows:
We again indorse the Idaho plan of
a unified educational system and pledge
our support to the state board of edu-
cation in it's efforts to advance the edu-
cational interests and facilities of the
state. We favor the development of
our own institutions of higher learning
until they are comparable in every re-
spect with the best state institutions
of the United States.
I'VE earnestly urge the members of
the legislature about to be assembled
to give their utmost careful consider
alton to the recommendations of the
state board of education: particularly,
do we call attention to the urgent ne
cessity of submitting an amendment to
the constitution providing for the elm
ination of the office of state superin-
tendent of public instruction.
I'VE indorse the action of the edu-
cational council in arranging for a
wide use of standard educational
tests in our city school systems with a
view of obtaining definite data con-
corning present efficiency OF instruc-
ton and to attaining a still greater de-
gree of efficiency for the future.
IDAHO HISTORY.
This association recognizes the i'm
portance of Idaho geography and his
tory for Idaho schools; it indorses full
ly the good work already done In MAX
ing such material available for school
use and urges all super tisors and teach
ers to further cooperation in the i'm
Dortant wOr. of assembling such ma
terial and introducing 1t into the
schools.
We indorse the suggestion looking
to the organization of state educa-
tional journal which will act as q gen
eral solidifying agency for our edLca-
tional interests in the state and a
clearing house for arguments and edu-
cational discussions and we earnestly
