INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 22.-School
marms gathering in indianapolis for
the sixtieth annual convention OF the
Indiana State Teachers association
registered a terrific howl today against
the custom of holding the annual
meeting during the holiday season.
The insurrection is headed by Miss
Katherine Beeson of Lafayette, where
she is principal of the Centennial
school, and other so-called "suffraget
educationalists Miss Beeson and
her followers declare that If some
women were on the association execu

be different. The insurgents declare
that by calling the annual convention

away from their homes and compelled
to do their shopping at Indianapolis
instead of spending their money with
merchants of their home towns. 1t is
estimated that about four thousand
teachers are attending the conven
ton.
