COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES
By J. W. ALLEN
(County School Superintendent)
Most of the county schools aro al
ready closed for the summer vaca
tion. The larger schools closed on
May 23 with the exception of St.
Helens, which will close on June 6.
The p.nnual school meeting will be
held on June 16. Necessary supplies
for this meeting have been sent to
all clerks.
Teachers' salaries have advancea
for the coming year and the teach
ers will not be slow in advancing
their own qualifications and re
quirements. The summer normal
will be most popular.
Portland, by reason of her im
mense valuation, can pay salaries
in advance of most parts of the state.
This gives her an opportunity to pick
the flock, which she is doing, as
usual.

Pnys Tribute to Soldiers.
Mr. Stanfield paid an eloquent tri
bute to the part played in the world
war by Oregon soldiers and sailors.
and to the whole hearted manner ln
which the people of the state sup
ported every call for funds for war
purposes. He said the state could
not goo too far in rewarding the
brave boys who risked or gave their
lives for their state and country, and
that by passing every measure sub
mitted to the people at the coming
election, the citizens of the state
(would be paying a debt of gratitude
to the boys who answered the call.
Mr. Stanfield was especially favor
able to the Reconstruction Bonding
Amendment. If it carried, he said. It
would be the means of the further'
development of the great resources
of Oregon, and that Oregon's future
depended upon its development. He
also urged the passage of the Sol
diers' Sailors' and Marines' Educa
tional and Financial Aid Bill, which
provides for state aid to discharged
soldiers, sailors and marines who de
sire to obtain the benefits of a liberal
education.
Although the hour was late, quite
a number remained after the show
to hear Mr. Stanfield and they felt
well repaid for he made a convincing
and logical speech.
