AFTER A BIG CONVENTION
PRESIDENT NORTHROP WILL TRY
TO GET THE Y. M. G. A. TO
COME HERE
GOES TO BOSTON NEXT WEEK
Secretary Grace, of st. Paul, VIII
Assist Him in the EndeaVOr
to Land the Big
Prize,

''Meet me in the Twin Cities in 1903.'
I With this as his slogan, President
Northrop, of the Minnesota State univer-
sity, will go to Boston next week and
attempt to capture the great interna-
tional convention of the Y. NJ. c. A. for
Minneapolis and st. Paul in 1903.
In Boston next week begins the jubilee
celebration OF the establishment of the
Y. M. c. A. in America, and here Presi-
dent Northrop will start the ball rolling
in an attempt to land the big prize for
the Twin Cities. Portland, Boston and
half score more of the big cities want
the convention and for that reason Min
nesota associations have combined and
succeeded in securing President Northrop
TO help them.
The last International convention was
held in London and number of delegates
in attendance was SO large that it stag
gered the slow-witted Britons and
brought them to realization of how big
an affair the Y. M. c. A. is. At London
nearly 10000 delegates were in attendance
and this number, it is claimed, would be
doubled were the next convention to be
held on this side OF the water.
Minneapolis is really making the bid for
the convention, President Northrop being
authorized to ask for it in her name, put
the slogan will be the Twin Cities Each
Will realize from it's capture, and to this
end the st. Paul association at a meet
Ing last night unanimously added their
support to the venture, going so far as
to authorize its secretary, Fred Grace,
to accompany Mr. Northrop and do all
in his power to assist in landing the con-
vention. His expenses during the trip
will be paid by the local board.

MOST Of THEM RE-
CURED
IMPORTANT CHANGES MADE
Halls Arithmeties Replaces WaIsh's
and Medal zPenmanship Substi-
tuted fOroEeftica1-NO Deci-
siOnaon Readers.

Text books constituted the paramount
topic of consideration at the regular
meeting or the board of education yes
terday, and while the members found
their views to be compatible to a great
extent, there was some dive rgence Of
opinion as to the relative merits of GER
tain educational works and the advisable
lty OF some of the changes proposed, and,
some animated discussion
This question OF text books for the
coming school year, which is customarily
decided at this tine, came up in the
form Of a report from the text book
committee based upon a list prepared by
Supt. Lewiston, in which the committee
had made but few changes. This list
was composed very largely Of the books
formerly in use, with some substitutjons
and the addition of some new works cal
culated to arnplify the course of study.
After the board had in its turn made
few alterations in the report Of the COM
mittee the list was finally adopted
Several Of the books substituted for
those formerly in use w;ll entail TaCi al
changes from the present methods in
teaching certain studies. Notably s this
a. fact in regard to aEithnetc in tie
graded schools, and it was on this Ques-
ton that the most marked division of
h7SANAiAlSlAt eNIliCIiS Liz iitC1lfDeIS VI Tic
board was apparent. Halls system, from
which rules and definitions are to a great
extent omitted, and which is based upon
the so-called inductive method, has been
adopted to replace Wa1shs system, the
primary divisions of which treat very
largely of rules and definitions. The
vertical system of penmanship, too, has
been practically abandoned. although it
may still be used in the very lowest
grades, where no copy books are follow
ed The copy books which have been
adopted, in accor a@ance with what is
known as the medal system, teach a
modified slant ia waiting. The commit
tees recommendation that the present
system of teaching music. be retained
was adopted, although an effort was
made to substitute another. The ques-
ton Of readers to DE adopted was left
open. a3iz
