Tha children In many hundred districts

i county on the south, nave had no school
advantages whatever during tha last year.
The children of many hundred oiher di
I trlrts were deprived of school advantages

Practically all districts on tne ramoao

Conditions that deprive children of school
arfvanla-es In this section 111 tne present I
time are: la) Inability to secure tesrhers.
i hi rii-lav In securing teachers; ic impossi
bility to securs boarding places for teach
er. idi oulv small pupils and too rar irom
wlioi.l to attend. . taxes for school pur-
I poses together with slate aid not sufficient
! to maintain a school; ifl teachers lesving
positions shortly arter oeginning i-no.
The scarcity of teachers Is found to ba
due to thee causes: tat small supply of
h-one teachers: tb( short terms of school;
(O difficulty In securing boarding places;
(.11 standards of examinations: (el distance
from normals and college": (f experienced
teachers leaving for better saving posi
tions: igl experienced teachers accepting
placea farther east because of better social
advantages.
Superintendent Crabtree, tn outlining pos
sible relief, says ha believes that a school
taught by one weak in scholarship Is bet
ter than no school at all.
"t am unwilling.-' he says, "to permit
the children of any district In any county
Irr ths state to ba deprived of school ad
vantages because of a scarcity of teachers.
Krwied tes Prspsara.
"I see many wavs of remedying condi
tions temporarily under, our present laws.
but in order to meet tha situation fully tt
i seems necessary ssk for a slight change
' In tha lawa pertaining to teachers" certlfl-
' . ... .1. H-.imirttTii.nt author-
caies, Hi.u. 1 , -
Ity to issue permits in emergnncles. This
permission can be guarded so that present
standards will not ba impslred.
"As a messuro of final relief every pos
sible effort must be made to provide well
qualified and efficient teachers for the
western counties as well aa for the eater
counties of the state. A careful Investiga
tion shows that normal training tn ths
high schools not only adds to the number
of qualified teachers, but tt greatly Im
proves tha teaching service in the eastern
counties. Tn my Judgment it will be worth
even more to counties farther removed
from normal schools and colleges. But
present requirements are too high for tha
smaller high schools of the west. I there
fore suggest-a change n tho laws regulat
ing normal training In the high schools,
leaving standards as they are In general,
yet permitting the state euperintendent to
designate a high school of lower grade
to give normal training in counties having
no high school meeting present require
ments. These normal training high schools
should offer free instruction to eighth
grade graduatee from weak diatrtcts and
to other nonresident pupils entitled to free
high school privileges under the free at
tendance high school law."
