To any one whose interest ID edUca-
tional pr gress in this state has in L the
warmth OF devotion, The session Of the
National Educational Association to be
held in Milwaukee July 60 is an event OF
more than ordinary Importance. 1t Is
not gathering of educators to discuss
the technics Of their work. L is not pro-
fessional in the restricted sense in which
that word is used when applied to con
ventions of specialized and limited func-
tons. The purpose OF this association is
as broad as the field Of activity IN which
lis members are engaged. It's aim is,
while enlarging the sweep of education, to
invest instruction with human sympathy
and make II touch the life of the people,
rection and comprehenslveness. These
high ideals have developed through hon.

and constitute a BODY of doctrine which

words, at the seconveutions The lnhu-
ence for good exercised by a convention
whose proceedings are participated ID by
men of such distinguished ability, who
are earnest in their efforts To spread the
gospel of intelligence, cannot be over
estimated.
The association should be made to feel
by the welcome accorded and the appre-
ciation manifested by Wisconsin. that cor
dial recognition of merit is a character
istlc of the state, and that industrious

tlonRl field are not Slthoct fellowship
