SUPT. r. H. WILSON

Oklahoma City, Okla, Nov. %
President c. w. Bries of the Normal
school at Ada was elected president
of the Oklahoma Educational associa-
ton with little opposition, when the
election of officers was taken up to-
day. w c. Canterbury of Checotah,
who had been mentioned as a candi-
date withdrew in favor of Briles L.
n. Colette of Muskogee, was elected
vice president. B. c. Klepper Of Shaw
nee secretary-treasurer, and Roy Git
tenger of Norman memDer of the
board of trustees for three years.
The only indication of what might
have been an attempt to inject politics
in the meeting came in a resolution
unanimously adopted by the associa-
ton approving the course of State
Superintendent Wilson in appointing a
rural school commission to deal with
the illiteracy question in the state.
This commission has established a
number of night schools and they are
becoming successful. A law was en-
acted by the last legislature providing
for an illiteracy commission and was
vetoed by Governor Williams on the
ground that it might subject the state
to unfavorable advertisement ResolU-
tions also were adopted requiring the
state to make education compulsory
in penal institutions.
