What are We Going TO Do With
Our Teachers This Year


Perhaps you will say we should not
bother ourselves with this question.
Last year the teachers found 1t very
hard to find places In Meridian TO
live and some were Obliged to come
from Boise and Nampa and Caldwell
each day.
In Miss Redfield's address to the
annual Trustees Convention, she
strongly emphasized two points that
must be overcome to meet the great
shortage in teachers first, better
salaries for teachers, second, Better
living conditions. She said THE
people must realize that they must
provide comfortable living quarters
for their teachers and they must
meet their responsibility In this line
better than they have been doing, or
more OF our schools will close their
doors because they cannot get teacn-
ers.
The boards have met the new sal
airy schedules for next year. Now let
us all help to meet the living condi-
tons. One of our teachers who came
from Boise last winter was compel
led~ TO come on the first car, as the
second car reached. here after high
school was called She reached the
school building at 7.I5, and in that
severe cold weather, or course the
heat in the building was not up at
that time, and she told the writer she
got so cold that she could not get
warmed up until after noon Was 1t
fair to her to expect good work from
her under those conditions?
We will have twenty teachers here
this winter. Now let us all think
this over. and meet our responsible
ity. Let us report either to DIR. II. f.
Neal, or Mrs r. p. Gregory, the
clerks OF the Boards, that the Boards
may have a list of the places. ~The
teachers will very soon be coming in
to find their boarding places.
A number hove already told the
clerks they would take teachers: Mrs
a. +. Estes will take four; Mrs. VIM.
Moreland two; Mrs. O. Singrey two;
Mrs. Jas. ID. Robertson two: Mrs, Earl
Gilbert one. Now let us ali report to
the clerks, either board or room. that
hey may have these lists complete
when the teachers come to make in
