ters Of Import to Be
Discussed.
Plans have matured for the COM
ing convention at st. Paul of the
Catholic educators of the country,
who will hold their twelfth annual
meeting in the big city of the north
west on June 2sth, Goth, 3Oth and
July LIST. All indications point to a
large and successful gathering. The
personal interest of Archbishop Ire.
land, metropolitan of St. Paul, insures
a large attendance from his own arch
diocese, and the valuable nature of
the papers to be presented will call
forth representative educators, east
and west. 1t is probable that this
convention will go down as one Of the
most important in the history of the
association, now in its twelfth year
of excellent work. There are many
matters of paramount Importance to
Catholic educators, which will receive
due discussion at this convention in
papers carefully prepared by those
eminent in the sphere Of education;
men who have spent years in the
study Of these problems, and whose
study has been augmented and broad
ened by practical experience in the
school room. Conclusions advanced
by such as these have weight due
to the ripe scholarship of careful
thinkers; and will be further digested
by the logical discussions which fol-
low the reading of each paper.
The preliminary program as printed
today is practically complete, though
there may be some changes and some
additions. The titles of the papers
speak for themselves. In addition
there will be public meeting at the
close, when addresses on vital sub
jects will be given by prominent
Catholic laymen.
A number of prelates will probably
be in attendance, and the famed hos
pitality Of the Twin Cities will be ex
tended to all delegates and visitors
