PROFESSIONAL
IMPROVEMENT TRIP.

On Wednesday, August IS, the Noca-
tional Agricultural Teachers of New
Jersey, under the direction of State
Supervisor H. o. Sampson, will make
a trip for the inspection and study of
the work being done in the Pleasant
vile section by Mr.. II. A. Miller.
Each year a trip of this kind is
planned for study and inspection as
professional improvement work under
the plan for New Jersey approved by
the Federal Board for Vocational Edu-
cation at Washington. AS no two
teachers are confronted by the same
problem, SO no two teachers conduct
their classroom and outside work in
the same way. For this reason this
g~et-together trip will give each one
new ideas and an opportunity to OBJ
serve the methods used as well as the
kind of work done in Atlantic County
This county has been a pioneer in
vocational agricultural school work,
and particularly in the evening class
type of instruction. Supervisors and
teachers throughout the United States
have been watching the work in At
lantic County with keen interest, so
that the limelight is being thrown
upon our famous county from still a
new angle.
The inspection party will make the
trip via automobile, and after visiting
the sections at Hammonton, Egg Har-
Dor and P~leasantville, will spend the
latter part of the week in Cape May
