DIR. A. E. Winship of Boston, editor
of the Journal of Education, one of
the foremost authorities in educational
matters and one of the most noteG
public speakers in the nation, gave
two splendid addresses before the
Joint meeting of school officers and
teachers at the high school audi

ing. =
DIR. Winship is an apostle Of
progress, and his two addresses were
along the lines Of advocacy for the
advanced things in educational work.
He is a strong advocate of community
work, and said that the word com
munity" is the biggest word ever writ
ten into educational history. Not only
the last few years have we realized
that the school is not only for the
boys and girls, but for every one in
the community that wants to learn.
"Your consolidated schools" said DR..
Winship, shave only begun to work
out this idea of community training,
and you should be proud of North
Dakota for it has larger proportion

other state in the union. You are also
demanding high grade of efficiency
in the teacher"
Open-Mindedness Urged.
In his evening address DR.. Winship
followed much the same line OF
thought of progress in education: In
addressing to the school officers he
pleaded for an open-mindedness
among those who had charge of the
schools, to do things for the future
rather than commemorate what has
been done in the past, and said that
progress is always going somewhere,
but never gets to it's destination II
anyone is satisfied, he is petrified." !"
