THE EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCES.

Among the important results Of the meeting
last summer at Saratoga of the National Edu-
cation Association wa the appointment OF a
council composed Of ten of the abcSt and best
known American instructors charged with the
duty Of conducting an inquiry into the best
methods Of secondary work. plan was out
lined for the council to pursue and It's execu-
,ion has begun Conferences began during the
Christmas recess at various points in the coun-
try, at Cambridge Washington, Ann Arbor,
Chicago and elsewhere, and each conference
considered one Of the nine departments into
which secondary education has been convenient
" divided. answering aS 10 that especial branch
Of study, a long list Of questions which the
council devised. Each conference was composed
Of ten or Il dozen practical educators, chosen
from all parts of the land and from nSttu-
tlOns of the first class, and having, in their
regular work, TO do principally with the study
now committed TO their examination. They
remained in session until there was IA full IN
torchange Of views on each Of The questions
proposed and they are to report their con
cIuSionS 10 the council not later than The lst
of next April.
Gradually but surely effective work is being
done looking 10 the solution OF the two great
problems Of the American school SyStcm-hOw
the secondary institutions may be made capable
of supplying to pupils before they are eighteen
years old such fair general education rs will
answer ordinary requirements, and, at the same
time keep the work Of those institutions from

been prominently before the minds Of thought
