a graduate of the Normal School at
San Jose. He has since becoming a
teacher identified himself with the as
sociation and taken lively interest
in it's welfare. Mr.. Langdon is prin-
cipal of the San Leandro schools.
James A. Barr, vice-president, of the
committee, represents the association
in Stockton, where he is superintend-
ent of schools. He has always shown
a deep interest in that which tends to
the advancement of education and is
one of the most valued members of the
association.
Miss Alice NJ. Felker, secretary, of
the executive force, has worked with
great energy and her plans in many
instances have received the approval
of the entire committee. She is con-
nected with the training department
of the San Jose normal.
E. K. Barthel, assistant secretary.
has labored steadily to increase the
enrolment of members. His efforts
have not been in vain, for this years
membership is the largest since it's
organization.
Through the efforts of Mr.. Nicely
monds special railroad rates have been
granted to the teachers. Mr.. Nicely
monds firmly believes in the work of
the association and as Superintendent
of Schools in Oakland has endeavored
to interest his teachers in this ad-
vance movement of education.
Cecil w. Mark is treasurer and
much of the planning and arrange
ment of the work of this session of the
California Teachers Association has
devolved upon him. He is viceprin-
| cipal of the Everett Grammar School
] in San Francisco and has represented
the committee in this city. He has
co-operated with the president and
secretary in carrying out the best
plans that could be devised for a most
| interesting and instructive convention,
and much of its success is due to his
energetic efforts.
DR.. E. E. Brown, head of the De-
partment of Pedagogy at the Univer-
sity of California during the past eight
wears. has taken an active part in the
work of the association. He is now
the leading spirit of the Council of
Education and has worked faithfully
preparing the report on the elemen-
tary course of study. His institute
work in this State is very extensive
and his department at Berkeley is
very largely attended.
Edward Howard Griggs, professor of
ethics in the Leland Stanford Jr. Uni
yersity, was born in Owatonna, Mimi,
January g. 1868, and is, therefore, not
quite thirty years old. He received his
early education at Madison, Ind. Leav-
ing school at the age of IA, he engaged
in business for five years in the city of
Indianapolis, during which time his
studies were carried on alone, with the
assistance of night classes. He entered
Indiana University in the fall of 1887
and completed the university course in
mathematics in two years, graduating
in 1883, and having been an instructor
in the preparatory department two
terms of his second year in college.

the New York State College. While
such a member new buildings were
provided, and the standing and
work of the institution revolutionized
through his influence. He was for sew
eral years a member of the Board of
Education of the city of Albany, but
perhaps his best known educational
work was in the office of Superintend-
ent of Public instruction of the State
of New York, to which he was chosen
by joint ballot of the Legislature in
1886, and which he held till 1892. In
that Office he was largely instrumental
in very generally reconstructing the
educational machinery and in giving
new direction and energy to the educa-
tional work of the Empire State. The
work of all the Normal schools and of
the Teachers Institutes was placed
upon a new footing. A State system of
examinations for teachers certificates
was inaugurated. The work of super
visory offices was regulated and ener-
gized, and all of the different educa-
tional interests of the State were
brought into cooperative effort as
never before in the States history.
While State Superintendent he was an
effective member of the New York
State Board of Regents and of the board
of trustees of Cornell University.
At the close of his term as State Su-
perintendent in 1892 President Draper
was urged to accept the position of
| Superintendent of instruction of the
| Cleveland (Ohio) public schools. The
| Ohio Legislature has just enacted a
| law giving an entirely new and unique
school organization to the city and
lodging the appointment and removal
| of teachers, the shaping of the course
| of study and the supervision of in
| struction exclusively in the hands of
| the Superintendent. The appointment
| is for life. He agreed to accept it,
! but, as he was not pedagogical ex-
pert, only for the period of reorgani-
| zation. In two years, feeling the fun
! damental principles of the new organi-
zation had been firmly established, he
announced his purpose to resign.
Every newspaper in the city expressed
regret, but his judgment was unalter-
able. At about the same time he was
elected to the presidency of the State
University of Illinois. His administra-
ton there has kept pace with his pre-
yious work. Appropriations have in
creased and buildings have multiplied
In three years the instructional force
and the number of students have
doubled.
President Draper was president of the
National Association of School Superin-
tendents in 1SS9-90 and 1S90-91. He. was
chairman of the subcommittee of the
celebrated committee of fifteen on the
details of school organization, and
prepared the report of the committee
which has become a standard docu-
ment upon that very intricate and i'm.
portant subject He has written much
upon many phases OF educationa
work and has made addresses before
educational assemblages in nearly
every State of the Union.

ton.

In order to accomplish more effective
and more definite work the State
! Teachers Association has instituted q

bles, with the subjects to be discussed
| in each. All round table work will be

While other students who entered col
lege with him as freshmen were about
to begin their junior year he had COM
pleted his college course, become in
structor, begun his preparation for his
A. M. degree, made engagements to
deliver lectures and was appointed as
instructor in English in the University
of Indiana. In 1890 he took his master
degree, and at the close of his second
year as instructor in the Indiana Uni
versity he was made professor of lit
erature and was granted years leave
of absence for advanced study. Dur
ing the summer of 1891 he was lecturer
in English literature at the GlenmOre
School of Culture Sciences in the Ad-
irondacks. He intended to spend the
following year at Harvard, where he
had been granted a Morgan fellow
ship, but a call to the assistant pro-
fessorship of ethics at Leland Stan
ford Jr. University, then just opening,
prevented this. Under previous en-
gagement, he spent the year of 1928
at the Indiana University as professor
of literature, returning again to Stan
ford in 1S93-94 as associate professor of
ethics. At the close of that year he
was made professor of ethics and given
leave 10r a year STUDY ABROAD. Inc
year was spent at the University of
Berlin and in travel. During his five
weeks stay in Paris he so far mastered
the French language as to converse
with some fuency and to read rapidly
not only the daily papers but portions
of French literature. On his return he
took up his work as professor of ethics,
which he has since held. AS a teacher
he is beloved by all his students, and
he possesses that rare quality as an
| instructor which inspires those under
his charge to aim at the highest ideals
/ in life and to make themselves useful
in the world by their words and deeds.
Professor Griggs' work in ethics is
an application of the spirit and meth
! cd of science to the study of the
| higher human life. To this end his
| university courses are devoted to the
actual history of conduct and ideals,
as given in autobiography and other
expressions of personal life, in the
| history of morals, the history of the
human intellect and the expressions of
life in creative art. His department is
very largely attended by the students
of Stanford, some of his classes num-
bering nearly 200.

j. Fowler, and the vice-p principal, Mrs.
NJ. M. Fitzgerald, they are to become
thorough and competent teachers.
The instruction is broad, comprehen-
sive and interesting It is a special
training along the most advanced and
efficient lines to prepare the young
ladies to become adopts in the art of
teaching.
Compared with the State Normal
schools the San Francisco Normal has
a small attendance, and therefore the
students are given much individual at
tention. A pupil of the city Normal
has the advantage of gaining expe-
rience for number of months in the
public schools of the city. In this way
the practical working of the everyday
school is acquired.
The young ladies are also trained In
the principles of music, and are given
thorough drill in tone production and
motion songs, as well as the most ad-
vanced methods used in teaching chill
dren singing.
Miss Estelle Carpenter, the director
of music at the Normal, is a graduate
of the TomIins Music Institute of
Carpenter has always been interested
in music, but was so impressed with
Mr.. Tomlins that she studied under
him for some time. She is now actively
engaged in teaching the Normal stu
dents and the children in the public
schools of San Francisco. Her work in
the latter department will be illus
trated by a class exercise in the round
table in the convention on Wednesday,
December %, at 4 o'clock.
The beautiful designs for the front
and back of the programme are the
work of Miss Katharine M. Ball of this
| city. The idea of sworls of long,
graceful eucalyptus leaves inter-
spersed with fluffy white blossoms is
most artistically carried out in the bor-
der, the whole design being f1ttingly
| symbolic of California.
A souvenir of the thirty-first annual
session of the association is being pre-
pared by Mrs. c. H. Campbell.
