Il can hardly refer TO DR.. Butler the father of
our work. said Mrs. Schuyler Van Rensselaer,.
president of the Public Education Association, at
its annual meeting, held yesterday in Assembly
Hall OF the Board of Education, but certainly ne
has long played the part of elder brother to u.s.

could say" returned President Butler of Columbia,

ings, All of them l and d great part of them
was with reference to the successful steps IN edu
cationa progress the last decade in this city. Not
least among these is the marked change in the at
titude of the public toward the subject of educa-
ton as a whole. Time when nobody knew and
nobody cared. Now have permanent educa-
tional policy adequate financial basis ana a
public sentiment that insists upon knowing every
detail and insists that every detail shall be up TO
the standard of an awakened educational con-
science.

mere means Of livelihood the conceoton OF the
work of teaching is that of a profession-a

of the power shape the city's educational pohcS

Education is the source of progress in every other
avenue. Give this to the children. and the docks
will take of themselves -.
