grade work in the model school Of
Teachers College, Columbia Univer-
sity, also lectures on Primary School
Methods.
Students registering for observation
are required to take an hours work
each morning in the grades which
most interest them, and at the close
of the session have a half hour of con-
ference with model teachers and an
hour of discussion of elementary
school problems, participated in by
teachers coming from every part Of
the country and representing every
grade of position and every type OF
school.
In addition, Professor Yocum and
Mr.. Suhrie offer courses which apply
the most recent results of educational
research to methods of teaching the
common school branches. A more
complete course of study from which
principals and superintendents can Sc
lect what they most need has rarely
been offered by any institution in
America.
The courses in Psychology, for
which the University is famous, are
attracting even more general atten-
tion than usual this year Or. Wilmer
personally conducts his clinic for de
fectives and supervises classes for
backward children in charge of teach
ers who regularly assist Miss Farrell,
of New York The fact that New Jer
sey requires the formation of special
classes for defective children will
cause increased attendance from that
state, but experts in the teaching and
supervision of backward children are
registering from all over the country.
There are courses in kindergarten
ing, drawing, manual training, the
teaching and supervision of public
school music, school playground teach
ing and supervision, medical inspection
and moral hygiene, to say nothing Of
work in every speciality needed by
high school and normal school teach
ers and courses for architects and ap
plicants for admission to medical
schools.
Growing interest in school libraries
makes the course in Library Economy
especially helpful 1t will be under the
direction of Miss Donnelly, head of
the Library School of Drexel Insti-
tute, and includes courses in Cata-
loguing, Classification, Reference and
Bibliography, Library Economy. Chill
dren's Literature and How to Use a
Library. The work in Physical Edu
cation is more manysded than ever.
and embraces school playground su
pervisiSn besides a two year course
in Physical Education for teachers Of
gymnastics and physical education and
supervisors Of athletics.
IN short, at every point, the Sum
mer School bears evidence of the Uni
versity's Wish to help public school
teachers. Many thousands of general
and spe ial circulars are being issued
by Dr. 4. Duncan Yocum. the Dir~c-
tor. Last year the attendance was
seven hundred; this summer provis-
ion is being made for over a thousand
students.

A great School of Observation gives
elementary school teachers, principals
and superintendents the opportunity
to study, through daily visits to model
teachers in each school grade, the
work of such noted systems as In
dianapolis, st. Louis, Philadelphia,
Passaic. n. j.; Newton, Mass, and of
the Horace Mann School, the model
school for Columbia University. The
school systems selected for represen
tation are among the most noted in
America. The teachers who represent
them have been officially chosen. For
example. the seventh grade is in
charge Of Miss Blai,h, of indianapolis,
who was recommended two years ago
by Hon. Calvin S Kendall, now Com
missioner Of Education Of New Jersey,

held on Thursday afternoon final
poll of the delegates to the coming
national convention was taken. which
showed that Roosevelt was 73 votes
short of Il nomination. despite all that
his personal representatives had been
desires, but in accord with their best
judgment, in view of the facts con-
fronting them. it was determined to
admit defeat to Mr.. Roosevelt and to
say to him that unless he could him
self save the day, his defeat for re-
nomination was an. accomplished fact.
This message was duly conveyed to
Roosevelt and he is now on his way
to Chicago"
After comparing Roosevelt to
Napoleon and the Roosevelt cam
paign for the nomination to the
hundred days." the statement con-
cluded:
ITO date Theodore Roosevelt has
persisted in remaining away from
Chicago and assailing the republican
party, it's principles. its president and
the leaders of the party at long range.
He has himself said that he did not
intend to come to Chicago unless it
was absolutely necessary for him to
do so to present his own defeat. That
defeat is at hand and Mr.. Roosevelt,
in violating all precedents In political
history in this country, as a self-seek-
ing candidate proposes to take charge
of his own campaign for renomlna-
ton for third term as president.
This is an undeniable admission OF
defeat which the coming OF MT.
Roosevelt will only make more GER

Soon afterward the Taft manager
put out the following statement by
William Barnes, Jr., of New York:
MIR. Roosevelt's departure for Chi
cago was inevitable, undignified as 1t
is and impotent as it will prove to be,
| it's chief interest lies in its disclosure
of that mania for power. over which
Mr. Roosevelt has no control. Every

It is sad and humiliating spectacle to
the American people"
During the day the hotel lobbies
and the various headquarters have
buzzed with compromising candidate
gossip. Both Taft and Roosevelt's
supporters could be found who would
discuss the matter. Senator Kenyon
of Iowa and his advisers. supporting
Senator Cummins. lent their aid to
spreading the compromise doctrine
