TEACHERS GET
ADAQUATE PAY
LEADER SAYS
SALT LAKE CITY, July 15 (by As
sociated Pres).—Adequate salaries for
teachers are being obtained, Josephine
Corliss Preston of Olympia, Wash.,
president of the National Educational
Association, declared in an address at
the association’s convention here.
Importance of education was
brought to the attention of the public
by the war, Mrs. Preston declared.
The National Educational Association,
she added, has truly become a factor
in the civic and educational life of the
nation.
“The Nation for Our Field,” was
Mrs. Preston’s subject. She urged im
provement of conditions surrounding
rural school teachers and asked the
members of the association to partici
pate actively in civic affairs.
“Some one has wisely s-aid ‘every
citizen is in politics,’ ” Mrs. Preston
asserted. “The consttution of the
United States puts him there and his
conscience grants him no exemptions.
The educators of this nation are in a
strategic position. They have a two
fold responsibility—a responsibility to
our children and a civic responsibility
to our community, state and national
life.
“The most important problem which
the National Educational Association
has to face at this time is the reor
ganization of this great body. Experi
ence has taught me that, to do the
greatest work of the National Educa
tional Association as well as it should
be done, a delegate plan as an official
working body is the ultimate solution.
The educators of this country see
clearly now as never before the neces
sity for their active participation in
civic life. We can no longer sit back
and leave to others the entire conduct
of governmental affairs. We educa
tors cannot train children for the ac
tive duties of citizenship in its fullest
sense unless we have this conception
of political life. Such a conception
can only be gained through actual con
tact with life problems and in actual
participation in the affairs of govern
ment. Let us be statesmen here in
this meeting. Let us continue to build
for the welfare of the greatest num
ber.”
Duties of citizens are taught Evans
ville, Ind., school children by, first,
studies in governmental theory in the
grades, and, second, application of the
theories in a student self-goverumf,r.L
in the high school, L. P. Benezet,
superintendent of Evansville schools,
said in an address before the conven
tion.
Reduction of Hallow’een damage
was one tangible result of the first les
son which dealt with destruction of
property, Mr. Benezet declared. The
lesson was given late in October, just
before Hallow’een, and police records
showed the loss was one-fifth that of
previous years.
Lessons in the grades deal with cur
rent events, he said. One was taken
from the Boston police strike, another
from the Russian soviet government,
while others brought out duties of citi
zens in the face of threatened epidem
ics, with the necessity for increased
production and elimination of waste
.and extravagance.
During the first year in high school,
pupils are required to take two
courses, one in elementary social sci
ence, involving morals and manners,
and the second in the vocations. This
latter course teaches children the j
science of making a liviing.
Under the student self-government
scheme, children are given an oppor
tunity to put into practice what they
have learned.

WORTH MILLION I
BUT PREFERS
. ALASKA LIFE
To work twenty-five years f
million dollars, and to discover when
the million is forthcoming that it’s
about as useful to one’s happiness
as a week-old theater ticket, is the
experience of Alaska’s most remark
able woman, the remarkable ‘Mother’
Quigley, some times affectionately
called ‘“Fannie.”
News of how Mother Quigley is
“cashing in” on her twenty-five years
of toil by the sale for $300,000 of just
one of her many gold claims near
Mount McKinley has been brought to
Seattle by Mrs. R. Pande Bagley, sup
erintendent of the Port Angeles Gen
eral Hospital, who recently returned
from a wonderful trip through Mount
McKinley Park as the guest of moth
er Quigley, says the Seattle Times.
To the average woman a millon dol
lars means a life time of “Home,
James,” “Kitty, bring the tea things”
and “Nellie, get my bawth read.”
“Her wealth has not changed Moth
er Quigley one whit,” said Mrs. Bag
ley. “She’s still chasing moose, kill
ing bear, trapping fox and trailing
caribou. She wouldn’t leave the
Mount McKinley country for anything,
because she’s happy there.
“It has been a great year all around
for Mother Quigley. First she has the
knowledge that she’s worth a million,
and already has $300,000 cash of the
million. Next, and of more import
ance, she has suceeded in growing
potatoes nearer the North Pole than
and other person living. Idon’t believe
she would trade her ability to grow
things in those regions where the win
ter is nine months long for a dozen
nillimio nf rl nil a re ”
Mrs. Bagley, an old-time Alaskan, ]
and the daughter of Capt. H. C.
Pande, who went to Alaska in 1895,
for some time had the desire to visit
Mother Quigley, because of the lat
ter’s fame and because of the famous
Quigley home, located 3,500 feet up
a mountain side near Mount McKin
ley. The opportunity came at Nena
na, Alaska, where Mrs. Bagley
nursed Mother Quigley’s husband dur
ing his illness last fall. The latter
issued the invitation to Mrs. Bagley,
who accepted immediately and this
despite Mrs. Bagley’s knowledge of
the long trail by dog team, the rush
ing streams and other obstacles that
must be overcome to reach the Quig
ley home.
“We started from Nenana Septem
ber 22,” said Mrs. Bagley. “The trip
to Tolovana by steamboat was but a
short distance, but is required a
week to make the few miles up the
Kantishna river. We traveled in a
small open launch. My. but it was
cold! And it seemed as if we were
always getting stuck on sand bars.
At one time it was twelve hours
"fter running aground before we were
finding again. We reached Roose- -
veit October 1. where we stayed one
week preparing for a 30-mile walk.
“rr,,"'s thirty miles was probably
the longest walk I have ever taken.
The weather was extremely cold. It
required three days and five hours
to make the distance. At the end of
the thirty miles we had to cross ~
Moore creek, an extremely dangerous
( ossing. Then came the last leg of
the journey to the Quigley cabin
This is located between Friday and
Fureka, and is 3,500 feet up a moun
tain side.
“Mother Quigley is probably the
best known woman in Alaska. She
is the only woman living in this vast
section of mining country. She went
North first in 1895, settling near
Dawson. So famous has she become
that she now has a corner in the
Smithsonian Institution, where her
specimens of wild things are mount
ed and kept.
jL/ui inf, in j t lijiu r* x tu iui o.
ley I never ceased to wonder at her
remarkable ability. She always main
tained that her husband was in that
vicinity solely to mine and that she
would take care of the incidentals.
“The nearest timber to the Quig
ley cabin is ten miles away. Mr. and
Mrs. Quigley at times would start
out together and spend several days
felling trees and splitting them into
mine timbers. The' job of carrying
the timber from the forests to the
cabin remained for Mrs. Quigley.
Every timber in the Quigley mine
tunnel has been transported ten miles
by Mrs. Quigley’s famous dog team.
“To Mrs. Quigley falls the duty of
keeping the larder supplied. She is
the hunter of the family and there
is not a better shot in the North.
The killing of the great glacier
bears, moose and other big game is
just a part of her day’s work.
