The twenty-ninth annual session of
the Minnesota Educational association
will be held at the capitol on Monday.
Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.
State superintendent Klehle and his
corps of assistants have been engaged
for several months in arranging the de-
tails, and an unusually attractive pro
gramme has been prepared. The value
OF these annual gatherings for peda-
gogic interchange of ideas and eXpe-
rIenceS can scarcely be estimated.
Teachers are confronted with new prob
lens almost daily in their active careers,
especially in method. and they make
practice of noting them for general
comparison at the annual sessions of
| the association. The very high stand
ard that the schools of Minnesota have
attained are largely due to this fact.
The programme, which follows in
full, shows that the association is sub
divided into three distinct yet co or
dlnate branches, besides the general
| association. These are the county
superintendent department, the high
school department and the primary de
partment. The officers of the general
association, which will meet in the as
sembly chamber at the capitol, are:
President-Prof Horace Goodhue North

Vice President-Frank A. Weld, Fergus
