ject of the evening from the viewpoint
of a patron of the school, while Miss
Maxey spoke of it from the teachers S
viewpoint. Both urged the adoption
of the idea and the discussion which
| followed was all favorable TO the idea.
Mrs. Meade considered the work that
has been done in New York city and
| the good that has been accomplished
| by it, and applied ii to the local situa-
tion. She believed much good could be
realized by constituting the local

called attention to the fact that many
have place for social intercourse.
