Gathering Of the Pundits at the State
go: Capital

The capital city was taken pos
session Of by the Florida peda-
gogues. They came from all
parts o: the state, about 400
strong, and for three days en-
joyed a feast of reason and flow
of soul.
The meetings were held in the
opera house and were called to
order Tuesday evening at 8
O'Clock by President j. G.. Comp.
ton of Leesburg.
Governor Bloxbam's welcome
address on behalf of the city of
Tallahassee was ornate and cap
tivating. ALI felt that our pol
lshed and gallant governor is
equal to any emergency and that
the interests of our great state
are safe In his hands.
Hon. N. w. Epps, superin-
tendent of schools in Leon county,
spoke in behalf of his county.
Principal Arthur Williams of
the Summerlin Institute at Bar
tow responded to these gracious
and hearty words of welcome in
a felicitous manner.
President Compton's annual
address was abb, practical and
we'll received.
Wednesday morning the opera
house was crowded to lear the
address of DR.. John f. Forbes,
president of Stetson University.
1t is admitted that President
Forbes is the foremost educator
in the state, and his views on any
subject are eagerly sought for
and almost universally adopted.
His theme was "Culture and
Utility" and for forty minutes
he held Ills audience spcllbound.
1t was bright, elcvating and help
full to all. 1t was conc, ded to
be one of the best speeches of the
occasion.
Miss Davenport of Barlow read
an interesting paper on "a Neg
lected Factor in Educatlon.'
Prof. w. A. Sharp, head of the
art department of Stetson Uni
versity, gave one of his best exer-
cises on art in the public schools.

pert in his line.
DR.. N. g. Schaeffer, state su
perintepdent of public instruction
of Pennsylvania, is the paid l"c
turer and delivered his first adj
dress at this session. He is a
brainy man, an original thinker
and brinlful of Information bout
school matters. He IS fine look
ing, affable gentleman and lis
lectures were a rich feast. He
has been in close touch with the
educational interests Of the coun-
try for many years and his prac-
tical suggestions to the Florida
teachers will tend to elevate the
standard Of instruction in the
public schools throughout the
entire state. 1t was we'll worth
the trip to Tallahassee to hear
him.
Wednesday afternoon interest,"
inc addresses were made by Pro-
lessons j. H. Fulks, j. w. Nc
Chung, R.Q Baker, Frank E''zey
and F. b. Shipp.

those who have criticised his ad-
ministratiOn in o sarcastic and
rather vigorous manner. He
spoke for an hour and was stlmu-
lated by frequent applause.
