County Teachers Patriotic League, which recently met and was presided over by the President, John W. Schrader, principal of the Solway Consolidated school: Miss Annie Shelland, rural school inspector, spoke on the purpose of the Patriotic League. Superintendent McGhee spoke on the salary question, telling the teachers of the schedule recommended by the state, and sug- gesting a county schedule for adop- tion. i . The chairman of. each of the four committees Teported on the work pro- posed for the consideration of the League, and to get a better idea of the field, recommended that a ques- tionnaire be sent out. The teachers favored this plan, and the question- naire has been prepared. Resolutions Adopted. A series of resolutions were adopt- ed. The teachers are requested to study these as a working basis for the future. Teachers of the county are invited to become members of the League. A card is inclosed so that you may make formal application at once. The membership fee was fixed at 25 cents at the first meeting. Let me suggest that if you expect to teach in the county next year, it will pay you in dollars and cents to send in your membership card. You can then work with the League for fair wages, and also become a better qualified teach- er, and merit an increase in wages. Your card may be sent to this office, or to the treasurer, Miss Mavis Phil- lippi, Bemidji, Star route. Leaders Are Appointed.

St. Paul, Feb. 9. -2 Jobbers 1d29 and c | wholesalers had a chance today to say what they think of the postal system—and right so the faces of postmasters.

Postmasters of Minnesota, North and South Dakota were here for the annual convention of the Tri-State Postmasters association. President Otto N. Raths of St. Paul called the meeting. _“We want suggestions and criti- cisms of jobbers and shippers,” said President Raths. “Then we will get together and talk it over, for the im- provement of service.” Organization work and a question qu discussion was on the program this morhing. This afternoon Mayor L. C. Hodgson, St. Paul, delivered the address of welcome. First Assist- ant Postmaster General J. C. Koons, also was slated to address the after- noon session, following which another question box discussion was on. The central accounting system was the subject of an address by Post- master C. E.
