A report came from Turner the otb

A report came from Turner the 9th
er day that about every other person
in that Village was preparing to stand
the examination for postmaster, to be
held in Salem next Saturday. While
the report is doubtless exaggerated, It
is known that there is unusual inter
est in the examination to be held un-
der the civil service rules for postmas-
ter of that town. As Turner Is now
rated as fourth class office, there is
no regular salary, but the income will
depend upon stamps cancelled and box
rent. Before being taken from third
class to fourth class office, the pay
at Turner was $1,000 a year. Under the
civil service rules whoever gets the
appointment this time, may hold the
office indefinitely as long as it is ad-
ministered properly. Women are eli.
gihle and II Is understood that a mum.
Der will stand the examination next
Saturday.

Should the government name q price
of L cents retail for sugar, number
of people in Salem would then pay a
higher price than has prevailed for the
past week. Inquiry at a number Of gro
eery stores developed the fact that 10
cents a pound was about the general
retail price, with a little concession
for those who bought in sack lots. The
man arrested back east by the federal
authorities for profiteering was selling
sugar at Is cents a pound.

NelOs Notes of the COunty's Schools
by Fay Clark Hurley

Seven or eight vacancies exist I'm
the teaching force of Malheur county
though every effort to find teachers
has been put forth. Last week, two
teachers we're placed and one appli
cation has been received this week
The hand grenades promised the
school children who were owners of
thrift stamps will not be delivered,
according to letter received from
the Treasuary Department.
Mr. Frank Newton is teaching his
third term Of school at Riverside.
Miss Louise Sears, third term at
Harper, Mrs. Dorothea Echave, a
third year at McDermitt, Mr. West
enkow, fourth year at Porterville
and Mrs. Conklin, a fourth year at
Cairo. A long tenure of Office for
teachers in towns and cities is not
unusual but rural districts are prone
to make frequent changes The en-
ployment of teachers year after year
speaks we'll for both teacher and pat
rons More appreciation of the
sterling qualities of both teachers
and patrons will tend to overcome
the desire for such frequent changes
In teachers and positions. Teachers
who know their pupils and the pco-
pie in their district are In better
position to do good work from the
first day OF school than are strang
ers. Employment for twelve months
instead of eight or nine and a longer
tenure of Office for good teachers
will work wonders in our rural
schools
The phonetic chart and manuals
to be used with the new texts have
not yet been received AS soon as
they are delivered to the county Of
nce they will be forwarded to the
teachers.
The new course Of study In Ply |
steal Education has been received |
and a copy sent to each school. All
teachers, and particularly those who
were not at institute should read |
carefully pages lie before attempt |
Ing any OF the work.
An effort is being made to renew
the interest OF Malheur county school
patrons In the work OF the Parent
Teacher organization. This impor-
tant work was neglected during the
period OF the war, M was that OF al
most every other organization not
bearing directly upon the winning OF
the war, but should again be given
serious attention. During the sum
mor, n local association was organ

/ Malheur county's good record I'm
club work should be an incentive to
renewed activity along industrial
lines Pupils, teachers and patrons
should cooperate I'm order to accom-
plish much The children can and
will do the work but they need ad-
vice and encouragement from their
parents and teachers. We would
scarcely feel that a child who merely
indicated his desire to study arith-
motic and bought book should be
held accountable for the years work
in the subject IL no teacher were
provided and no encouragement were
given him by his parents Club
work presents as many difficulties 20
the average child as does the regular
school work and the child trying to
carry out his project should have the
same kind of help and advice that IL
given him in school. The results OF
club work are splendid and any man
or woman who wishes TO render q
real service to any community can
find no better opportunity than in
the position of club advisor.
