a brief address, urging the members
to work for the placing of women in
more of the administrative positions in
educational work both as a matter of
equity and for the extension of their
best influences in educational life of
the state.
The next speaker was Miss Effie
Graham, a past president of the club.
writer and a former high school
teacher. I'VE are told when we meet
in convention, that we are the salt of
the earth, and we spend many words
m complimenting. each other. That
is WELL for the rest of the year we
hear enough of the other side of the
public's opinion. We should try to
raise ourselves to the standard that is
set for US. and we women of the
teachers association should believe in
each other and stand by each other.
The younger women of our profess
sion, with their enthusiasm and their
convictions, are going to be a great
force in the moulding of public af-
fairs in the state. In an earlier day
it was not considered quite the thing
for the women to have decided op1n-
ions. but the younger women are not
handicapped by those old notions. l

women teachers on associations pro-
grams. The women, she explained,
were in the majority in the association,
and were it's best supporters.
Mary Antin made an address, urging
the duty of teaching politics as a con-
slant department of civic education.
Her scheme seems to be that the diff
ferent political parties should not con-
fine their educational processes to the

they should keep political issues be-
fore the people all the time, and that
decisions in political matters should
not be made at the last moment in
the heat of a campaign.
