tional Educat ional Association, which
will be held in San Francisco from
July 7th to July 14th, is destined to

for lavish hospitality and, with the
aid of the leading men and women ol
the coast, will strive to maintain that
reputation with the teachers. The
rates of travel are one fare for the
round trip from all points and the s.
