MEMBERSHIP At the present time more than seven thousand of the leading teachers in the United States are active members of the Association, and nearly nine hundred institutions have enrolled under the provisions for institutional membership. Active membership im- plies permanent membership and continues until notice of discontinuance is sent to the Secretary. Among the many special advantages of active mem- bership may be mentioned the following: 1, Active and permanent connection with the National Education Association and its work. 2. Publication of name (with titles of degree, if any), and educational position in the annual Year- book, which now constitutes the most valuable edu- cational directory issued. 8. The annual volume of proceedings without “coupon” or other conditions, together with bulletins of information, special reports and other publications issued by the Association. 4. The privilege of voting, holding office, and shar- ing in the business management of the Association and its departments. 5. Many: special privileges at the time of the annual convention, which are extended to active members (and to such members of their families as are associate members), as the delegate and repre- sentative body of the Association. Active members already enrolled’ are especially Tequested to announce the fact of such membership at the Registration Bureau in order that the proper certificate and badge may be issued and credit for active membership dues entered on the records. At the general and department meetings, seats will be reserved for active members, and such mem- bers of their families as are associate members, until five minutes before the time of opening.

Associate members receive with the membership certificate a coupon for the annual volume of Proceedings, which will be sent, express prepaid, when published, to all associate members who send the coupon for Proceedings to the Secre- tary’s office before October 1. LOCAL HOSPITALITY Monday evening, July 7, a fine concert has been prepared, which will be offered free to the members. This concert will be given in the Tabernacle, in which is located one of the finest organs in this country. The music of Salt Lake City is one of the features con- cerning which travelers speak with great praise. Almost daily thruout the entire year short concerts are given for the benefit of the traveling public. The program which has been prepared for this occasion is very fine. On ‘Tuesday, July 8, the teachers will be taken to Saltair, the famous bathing resort on Great Salt Lake, where a reception will be held. Those who have not enjoyed a bath in this lake listen with wonder to statements that the waters are so dense as to sustain the human body without effort. The statements are in no wise exaggerated, however, the presence of about 22 per cent of salt giving the water unusual buoyancy. No debilitating effects whatever follow a bath in the lake, but, on the other hand, it is most invigorating. Dinner will be served at 6:00 P. M. in the “Leviathan,” a hugh restaurant in the form of a ship built over the lake, and at 7:00 P. M. a reception to the teachers will be given in the Saltair pavilion on the largest unobstructed dance floor in the world. Short addresses of welcome will be made by the Governor of Utah and the Mayor of Salt Lake City, after which the band will play and the visitors may dance and enjoy the many attrac- tions about the resort, returning to the city at their own convenience. MEETING PLACES The general sessions will all be held in the famous Mormon Tabernacle, which comfortably seats eight thousand persons. The department meetings will all be held within a radius of five blocks from Hotel Utah and the Tabernacle. In this respect, Salt Lake City possesses advantages superior to those of any other city in the country. 6 . THE N. EB. A.

J., St. Paul, Minn., and Asbury Park, N. J. At the same meeting of the Board of Directors, Director Cloud, of California, presented a formal invitation for the Association to meet in San Fran- cisco in 1915. Since that time plans concerning the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, to be held in San Francisco in 1915, have progressed so far that Mr. James A. Barr has been made Chief of the Department of Education, and it has been decided to hold an International Congress of Education in con- nection with the Exposition. It has further been decided that the invitation for the 1915 meeting shall come from the city of Oakland, which is finishing a great auditorium that will cost a half-million dollars. This would secure quiet for all meetings of the Association and at the same time would place the entire membership present within a few minutes of the attractions of the Exposition. It is purposed to ask the membership of the Asso- ciation at its 1913 meeting to definitely fix upon Oak- land as the meeting-place for 1915, and to undertake the holding of an International Congress of Educa- tion under the auspices of the Association as was done at Chicago in 1893 and at St. Louis in 1904. COMMITTEES ON REVISION Examination of the minutes of the meeting of active members, held at Chicago, July 10, 1912, wili show that two committees on revision were author- ized. To one was referred certain proposed amend- ments to the By-laws, to be reported on at the next annual business meeting of the active members. To the other was assigned the task of presenting to the active members at the 1913 meeting a draft of pro- posed changes, amendments, alterations, or other modifications in the Act of Incorporation. By the terms of the resolution the report of the second com- mittee was to be presented to the active members not later than June 1, 1913. President Fairchild appointed the same members to both committees: State Supt. T. H. Harris, Baton Rouge, La.; Supt. C. G. Pearse, Milwaukee, Wis.; Prin. W. B. Owen, Chicago, Ill.; Supt. F. B. Cooper, Seattle, Wash.; Pres. Joseph Swain, Swarthmore, Pa. At a meeting of the committee held at the Audi- torium Hotel, Chicago, May 10, it was decided that in view of the important matters pending and to fy discussed at the next annual meeting, the Committy deemed it inadvisable at this time to suggest specifiy changes in the Act of Incorporation. SUGGESTIONS It is not expected that this Bulletin will answe all the questions which prospective attendants upo the Salt Lake City meeting may have. The following suggesions are made as to other sources of informa tion. As to railroad rates, consult your local tick agent. As to probable special patries, consult your loca agent and your state Director, or some member of his committee on co-operation. It would be well to arrange for quarters at Sal Lake City in advance. Mr. Job P. Lyon, chairman of the committee on hotels, or Miss Margaret MacVichie chairman of the committee on private boarding houses, would be glad to assist you. They can fy reached care Commercial Club, which is the hea¢ quarters of the local committees in charge of th convention. Any other question with regard to local arrange ments or side trips will receive a prompt reply if addressed to the N. E. A. Utah Executive Committes Commercial Club, Salt Lake City. As far as possible, plan to arrive on Saturday, The Council will be in session that day and its mee- ings are open to members. The official program willl contain the notices regarding Educational Sunday. f The Council and many of the Departments have im portant meetings Monday morning.
