GOING OUT TO BRING
CONVENTION TO
ALBUQUERQUE
BernaIiIIo County Teachers
Propose to Make an Active
Campaign in Santa Fe for
Next Year,

we, may not be able to bring the
next convention Of the New Mexico
educational association here during
the irrigation congress-" said a well
known Albuquerque teacher yesterday,
" but we are going to try mighty hard
and if we do not get it for the irrNga-
ton congress week we will get it here
for the holiday week"
Seventy-five Albuquerque and coun-
~ school teachers will go to Santa
Pc this morning to attend the annual
convention of the educational asso-
citation, which is one of the strongest
state societies of its kind in the west.
The sessions will occupy the rest of
the week. 1t has been the intention
Of the Albuquerque delegation" to
bring the convention here daring the
week of the irrigation congress, but
owing TO the long established custom
of holding this convention during the
holiday week, when it is most conven-
lent for the teachers lit Is doubtful If
the first plan will succeed. At any
rate an effort will be made to bring
the next convention here.
