Eye and Breaker of Long Beach, and we
hereby extend to the proprietors of these
papers the thanks of the assembly.
Resolved, That we regard the holding
of the summer schools in conjunction
with and at the same time as the assem-
bly, as detrimental to the interest and
profit of both, as they hinder the at
tendance upon the exercises and lee
lures of each, so highly valued by the
students present. We recommend that
n the future the summer schools pre-
sede the session of the assembly, as has
been successfully practiced by the parent
assembly at Chautauqua, New York
Resolved, That we tender our very
hearty thanks to the entire management
for the conception and carrying out of
the excellent program planned for and
the high standard attained by this year 5
assembly.
