WATIONAL EDUCATION ASSOCIATION, NEW YORK CITY, JULY 1-8, 1916 SUGGESTIONS Can you use more of the June Bulletins in advertising the New York meeting? Iso, send a request to the Secretary indicating the number desired. > The New York meeting offers a splendid opportunity for teachers to spend the 7 vacation in the East in attendance upon the meeting, in studying the ms centering in the largest city of this country, and in taking advantage of Be opportunities presented for summer-school work. Several of the large institu- is in the East postponed the opening of their summer schools ‘until July 10 so it this would be possible. Columbia University, New York.

Cornell e ity will accept any of the teachers who have been in attendance upon the is of the National Education Association on July 10, altho their regular ig day will be July 5. you are contemplating attending the New York meeting, get in touch with r local ticket agent as early as possible, for the purpose of finding out what road ticket arrangements are available from your city. Three different forms i will be used depending upon the jurisdiction of the passenger association which you may be living. From some sections, a short-time ticket will be sold inning June 29, good to return until July 12. From other sections, the time nit ili be thirty days and from still other sections sixty days. In somé terri- ries two of these three forms will be available. It is well that you get this ation in advance. In some places, it will be necessary for the ticket agents p from a near-by center the ticket that will be used. ren your hotel reservations in advance. This suggestion is made not because will be any lack of room in New York City, but because, if such reservations re made, you can go directly to your hotel on arrival and save the annoyance of upaplace. The hotels that are listed in this issue of the Bulletin guarantee he Tates as per the schedule. However, it is possible in almost every case to ure a lower rate for parties than that quoted. If you desire any special infor- .along the line of party rates, write John R. Young, Merchants Association, N.

The first general session will be held Monday afternoon, July 3. Educational Sunday will be observed in a number of the more prominent churches. The Officia) Program and Guide Book will be issued together this year and cay be obtained at the registration headquarters together with the badge of admission Special maps are being prepared for the teachers. Consult the program immediately on its receipt in order that you may obsgerye any changes which may have been made from the program as printed in this Bulletin. The Secretary recently spent a week in New York with representatives of the various educational institutions and associations and with the committees that | have been formed. The local arrangements are progressing finely. Be sure to consult that portion of the Official Program relating to social functions. It hag been impossible to give a very complete list of them in this Bulletin. Active members will please remember that at five o’clock on Monday after. noon, July 3, following the regular afternoon general session, they will meet by states in their respective state headquarters, or, where headquarters are not maintained, at such places as will be designated on the program, for the purpose of selecting a member of the Nominating Committee. Safety First.—Many persons are troubled in handling their finances on ey. tended trips. The safest as well as the easiest way to carry funds is by means of A. B. A. Checks, issued by the fifty thousand members of the American Bankers Association, or by means of Travellers Cheques, issued by the American Express Company. They save the necessity of identification and can be used as cash prac- tically everywhere. Read your Bulletin thru, and then see if you cannot extend publicity for the meeting by loaning it to several of your teachers. Persons from the West can break their trips by using, if desired, water lines be- tween Detroit or Cleveland and_Buffalo and between Albany and New York. Thru rail tickets are accepted by either the Detroit and Cleveland Navigation Company, the Cleveland and Buffalo Line, or the Hudson River Day Line. Where it is desired to use them for these trips, they should be exchanged at the offices of the respec- tive boat lines before boarding the boat, notice having been given to the conductor before reaching the station at which you will leave the train, so that the conductor may make the proper record. In many cases, it will be possible to save money by spending a little time in inquiry as to the various travel routes to New York. It will be worth while as well to inquire concerning the various stop-over privileges which are offered, as in this way it may be possible for one to see Niagara Falls, Chautauqua, Albany, Philadelphia, or Washington, in addition to other places not enumerated. | NOTES The American Library Association will hold its Thirty-Eighth Annual Con- ference at Asbury Park, N. J., June 26 to July 1. The time and place was agred upon in order that a large number of persons who are members of both the Library Association and the National Education Association might be able t attend both meetings. The program of the Library Association will feature “Democracy in Education—Its Effect Upon Public, University, and School lt braries, the Influence Which Libraries May Exert in a Democracy.” Numertus section meetings and round tables will be conducted on such subjects as “Library “a7 Zzaoeoreewmewsrenktke a ts OG sco emer wea Bo Ss & onl a m as of pI 01 al C de W = ry shed fter- t by !

From some sections of the country, tickets may be purchased to New York, which permit side trips to, and stop-over privileges at, Asbury. Park. Persons desiring to attend both meetings should consult their local ticket agent some time in advance. The May Bulletin of the American Library Association will contain further particulars as to the program and will be sent free on application to the American Library Association, 78 East Washington Street, Chicago, II. The next meeting of the Department of Superintendence will be held in Kansas City, from February 26 to March 3, 1917. Hotels Baltimore and Muehlebach have been designated as headquarters. The general meetings will be held in the Con- yention Hall, where the commercial exhibits and registration will be centered. Itis suggested that time will be saved if persons desiring to make advance reserva- tions will communicate directly with Superintendent I. I. Cammack, who has peen furnished a list of all the hotel accommodations, so that he will be able to give all available information first hand. Many persons by not following similar advice in connection with the Detroit meeting were obliged to write four and five times before finally securing the accommodations they desired. In writing Super- intendent Cammack, please be sure to indicate the character of reservation you wish and the price you desire to pay. The annual meeting will be of especial interest to one member of the N. E. A., James Cruikshank, former principal of School No. 12, Brooklyn, who retired from active work in 1906. Those familiar with the history of the Association will re- member than in 1857 a call was issued by the presidents of ten state teachers’ associations for a meeting to be held in Philadelphia, August 26, for the purpose of organizing a national association. At that meeting, forty-three persons were present, representing twelve states. The National Teachers Association was organized, the name being changed in 1870 to the National Educational Association, and later in 1907 to the National Education Association of the United States. Mr. Cruikshank is the only present member of the Association who was at the Phila- delphia meeting, and, so far as we are able to learn, is the only person now living who was present. At that time, he was living in Albany, N. Y., having begun teaching in 1848. He has lived in Brooklyn since 1866. The Proceedings of the Detroit meeting of the Department of Superintendence have been issued in an advance reprint form as Volume 4, No. 6, May, 1916. They may be obtained from the Secretary at twenty-five cents a copy. The announcements of the winners of the Contest on Thrift in the Public Schools will be made at New York. Those essays which have survived the first five readings are now in the hands of the final Board of Judges. The September Bulletin will contain a full announcement of the result.

COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY Columbia University, which covers several large city blocks at Morningside Heights, 116th Street and Broadway, and is reached directly by the subway and surface cars from all parts of the city, will be in session in the summer from July 10 to August 18. The buildings will be open for inspection during the week of the visit of the National Education Association. North of 116th Street are the Memorial Library, St. John’s Chapel, Earl Hall, and many buildings assigned to instruction, laboratories, and scientific collections.

Fee ear eee, ae ee ee ee jege and the Horace Mann School. Over six thousand students will assemble for the six weeks’ summer session which Columbia now regards as one of its three sessions. The campus and the green will witness as great activity as prevails in the winter. The students come from all parts of the United States and from foreign countries. The entire university takes part in the summer session. In fact, Teachers College and the Department of Education give as much attention to the courses of this session as to those of the winter and spring. All the schools are represented in the courses offered. The Law School, the Medical School, the scientific schools, and the graduate school, all alike vie in placing their advantages pefore the students who come to Columbia in summer. Announcements may be secured from James E. Egbert, Director, Summer School. Under the direction of the American Social Hygiene Association, courses in the correlation of sex hygiene and directed recreation will be offered to teachers and social workers at the rooms of the Training School of the Young Women’s Christian Association, 600 Lexington Avenue, New York, N. Y., from July 10 to july 29. Information concerning courses may be procured by writing to William Ff. Snow, General Secretary, 105 West 40th Street, New York City. Harvard University has placed the opening of its summer session for July 10, in order that teachers in attendance upon the New York meeting of the National Bducation Association may find it possible to take advantage of the courses which it will offer. Definite information with regard to the same may be obtained by addressing Henry W. Holmes, Division of Education, Harvard University, Cam- pridge, Mass. Information with regard to the summer sessions at Hamilton College, Syra- cuse University, or Cornell University may be secured by addressing the deans of their summer schools. NEW YORK ARRANGEMENTS Hotel arrangements have never been better than in New York. A study of the list which follows will show rates on both European and American plans. Accommodations of every grade are listed and the Merchants’ Association becomes sponsor for the character of the hotels named and for the service which will be given. You will note their suggestion that advance reservations be made as early as possible. In New York these should be made directly with the hotels. It has been suggested that members of the Association will do well to patronize the hotels listed. It is especially suggested that no attention be paid to what is known as the licensed public porter who is to be found at the New York railway terminals and steamship piers. These porters cannot be trusted in the representa- tions which they make. Select your hotel in advance and you will have no difficulty in being well taken care of. The school exhibits will largely be centered in Washington Irving High School. Live exhibits in the form of regular classes will be carried on during the week. Thursday afternoon, at half-past one, the students of the school will conduct an assembly as is regularly done during the school year. The library exhibit will be in the Washington Irving High School and the New York Public Library. The exhibits relating to the work of teachers of special classes of children will be found in Public School No. 27. An interesting feature of the general session will be the half-hour devoted to music preceding the regular program. This will be under the direction of Frank R. Rix, director of music, public schools, New York City. The Teachers of the City of New York will tender a reception to the visitors ata place to be named in the official program, Monday evening, July 3, following the general session. 6 rae yu SB.

' He was intimately associated with the National Education Association for more years than any other man has ever been. It was his distinguished service as non-salaried Secretary that led to the creation of the office of paid Secretary, in which capacity he was ranked as one of the most efficient executive secretaries in the United States. It was during his term of office that practically the entire Permanent Fund was accumulated, and in those years, largely thru his advice, not an investment of those funds was made that was of doubtful value. Dr. Shepard will long be associated with the National Education Association 4s William T. Harris will be with the United States Bureau of Education. D. B. JOHNSON, President, National Education Association. D. W. SPRINGER, Secretary, National Education Association.
