certain objections to the date selected for the

that a great mauy schools were not full u ntil

difficult to obtain the desired statistics from
them owing to absences. and second, that il
would be perhaps impossible to organize the
proposed choir OF children and young people
in time for the convention owing to absences
from the city.
After a full discussion OF the subject it was
unanimously agreed that the date of the con-
vention be changed from October 8, 8. and 10
to October 29. 80 and 81. beginning the even
ing OF Monday. October 20.

mously approved and indicated good work
