Montoya Returns
From Meeting of
N. E. A. at Portland

County superintendent ~ Montoya
and family returned on 80 ycster-
day from Portland, ore, after an alb
sence OF almost four weeks. during
which time they attended the annual
convention Of the National EdGca-
tiunal association al the oregon
metropolis MIR. Montoya reports "a
very profitable meeting OF the edu-
Gators, although the attendance was
somewhat less than usual This was
attributed partly to war conditions
aud partly TO the fact that the con-
vention was held in a rather out Of
the way place.
Dr. Finnegan. assistant conmis-
sionor Of education OF New York
state. presented a paper on rural
schools. In the discussion OF which
MIR. Montoya took a prominent part
and told the convention of the Won
dcrfu progress that Bernalillo coun-
~ has made In bringing its rural
school system TO a high state Of eff
cheney. not only In the matter Of pro-
viding up-to-date buildings. but ia
longthcuing the school term and i'm
proving the course OF instruction. He
found that IA. county will compare
fa,orably with the counties in many
older states In { he matter OF rural
schools. In fact, ia nt least two
things. the county unit of taxation and
the county unit ~ administration.
Berudlillo county and New Mexico
are ahead Of most states. oregon,
for instance which has a very ad-
vanced educational system, has not
progressed this far.
MIR Montuya and family were in
Portland two weeks He reports husi-
ness conditions good There Is much
