Plan Reorganization of Teachers.

A reorganization of the Wisconsin
consideration. The plan is proposed
by the council of administration of
the state association, giving heed to
a long-standing complaint of too many
teachers conventions and too many
fees. At present there, are teachers
associations in a half-dozen sections
of the state, besides the state asso-
Citations, all of which meet annually
By the reorganization plan it is pro-
posed to merge them all, the state as
ISOLATION meeting every two years
and the sectional meetings to be held
on alternate years. In other words,
the state teachers will meet as a unit
one year, and in sections in their dis
tricts the next year. There will be
a common program-making board, on
which each district will have a repre-
sentative. Continuity in subject mat
ter of programs from year to year is
one object sought. Less expense in
the matter of securing noted speakers
is also possible. Speakers will be as
signed to the sectional meetings one
after another, enabling them to ad-
dress several within the course of
three days. Coming for three or four
lectures, speaker may be secured for
a better price than now.
Teachers under this plan will be-
long to a federation, and be entitled to
attend any or all sectional meetings
for one fee.
The plan will come up for a vote be-

Governors, Meet Comes to Close.

A strong plea for humanitarianism
in government was made by Gov. Da-
vid l. Walsh Of Massachusetts in an
ors' conference at the Hotel Pfster.
The final session was held in, Mil
waukee after a three-day meeting in
Madison.
Governor Walsh paid warm tribute
to Wisconsin when he said he believed
this state was doing more for its citi-
Zens than any other state in the coun-
try. He stated that he had received
many ideas while on his visit which he
would try to put into effect when he
reached home.
There is a movement in the coun-
try which shows that the people are
taking keener and more thorough in
terest in government than ever be-
FORE" said Governor Walsh. Proud
as l am of our work in Massachusetts,
want to say that Wisconsin is do
ing more than any other state in the
Union for its citizens.
The speaker gave high praise to the
German-American as a good citizen.
81 expected much of Wisconsin be-
cause its citizens are largely of the
same descent as those of Massachu
setts,' he said. 81 know of no better
citizen or one who brings more thrift
and solidity to a community than the
German-American."
Gov Francis E. McGovern of Wis
consin, who acted as POSTMASTER, de-
fined the progressive movement.
Il will give you my definition of the
Wisconsin idea,2@ said Governor Nc
Govern. 1T is not the eugenic law,
the vice commission or any Of the
freak bills that have been passed by
the legislature of this and other states.
Nor is it the primary election law,
the workmans compensation law or
the railroad rate commission. If the
Wisconsin idea were represented by
any one statute, could not expect to
find d general agreement as to its mer-
its, because there are bound to be diff
ferences of opinion on individual laws.
There are two factors that go to
make up the Wisconsin idea. They
are method of legislation and logic of
government
First, there must be a careful in
vestigation of the subject that is to be
covered by the law. Take the work
mems compensation act, for instance.
This grew from our early labor bu-
reau. A great deal Of investigation
and study, including the amount to be
fixed for payment in many instances,
was necessary, and it required experts
to frame the regulations.
I'VE have the railroad rate commits
sion, the industrial commission and
others to make these investigations
In addition we have our university and
normal schools to aid u.s.
In order to frame laws we must
have men whose ability cannot be
questioned. The legislature cannot
always be relied on.
so, by a careful application of sys-
TEN, we have made laws in this state
which are being copied far and wide.
Individual laws may be the subject of
argument, but the method is right"

recommendations for important
changes looking to the reorganization
Of the public school system of Wis
consin were made public in a report
by a committee named by State Super
intendent c. P. Cary at the city super
intendents' convention in 1913. This
report was submitted at the superin-

The committee recommends the de-
velopment of a six-year secondary
school system comprising the seventh

school system and the four-year

The committee consisted of H. l..
