STATE TEACHERS CONVENTION COMING
Gatherings Next Friday in Four
 Cities in the State

Next Friday, October 22, will be a
 holiday for the public school children
 in Connecticut, but not for the teach
 CTS. They will attend the sessions
 of the sixty-ninth annual meeting of
 the Connecticut State Teachers as
 sociation, which this year will be held
 in four cities, Hartford, New Haven,
 New London and Danbury. In former
 years the convention was held in
 Hartford and New Haven, but the
 scope of the work has greatly in
 creased and the distance many of the
 teachers have to travel made it wise
 to split the convention into four
 gatherings. New Britain teachers will
 attend the Hartford meeting, which
 will be held in the Hartford High
 school in the main hall on the sec
 ond floor of the Hopkins street build
 ing. Principal Louis P Shade of the New Britain High school is chairman of the executive committee and Miss Jane Darlington, supervisor at the State Normal school, is a member of the committee on resolutions.
 An important event in which New Britain teachers are socially interest ed in will be held Thursday night, the eve of the convection, at the Hart ford Golf club where will occur the annual reception and banquet of the Connecticut State Teachers league. This league has been working stead fastly for the tablishment of woY1ans college in Connecticut and this year sees the labor accomplished the college having been opened aa New London. President Frederick H. Sykes and members of the college faculty will be guests of the teachers league at the banquet and reception. The speakers of the evening will be chosen from the college faculty. An otffer big work the Teachers League has undertaken, not as yet with com plete success, is the teachers pen sion movement. Miss Ella Fallon of this city is president of the league and has done conspicuous work both in connection with the woman's college land the teachers pension movement. Friday the preliminary business of the State Teachers as- 'sociation will open at $40 o'clock and at 810 o'clock there will be an ad- Ddress on American Ideals in Educa- tion' by Jay William Hudson, pro- lessor of philosophy in the University of Missouri. There will be another business meeting at 3 o'clock and at 3:15 an address on Democracy ir 'Education" by Philander P. Claxton, UlHted States Commissioner of Ed l ucation at Washington, D. c.
