Sends Letter to
 English Teachers
Q the Editor of The Age-Herald:

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Kindly permit me to make an announce ment in your next issue. About February there will be published by the United States bureau of education a most val uable bulletin on English Tn the junior and senior high schools. It is the result of five years effort on the part of a com mittee of 30 representing the National Council of Teachers of English From the chapters which I have examined and form various accounts, I judge this will be one of the most helpful aids recently issued for the teacher or English in the high schools and the upper elementary grades.
 Within the next few days I am to send for mailing purposes to Commissioner Claxton a complete list of English asso- ciation members. Since the national ap- propriation for the bulletin is limited and since the members of the state English associations will probably receive the first copies it behooves all interested in having copies of the bulletin to join our English association at once.
 Each name should be sent to the writer of this notice and should be accompanied with dues (50 cents) and with the follow ing information: Present address, per. manent address, position, name of school.
