KENT TEACHERS
TO MEET MARCH

The Kent County Teachers AS
sociatiOn is planning to hold its
Spring meeting in the Milford High
School, Tuesday, March End.
Miss Carter and the other officers
of the Association are presenting
a most unusual type of meeting at
this time. Since they have held one
meeting, which was devoted to the
professional aspect of teaching,
they thought that it would be pro
fitable to devote one to the material
side of teaching. With this in mind,
they invited many book companies
and other types of supply cOmpan-
les to exhibit their wares. Many
companies have accepted and a fine
lineup has been arranged.
The idea is new and it is most
timely 1t not only will let teachers
see the new materials but it will be
Of great benefit to all who wish to
order their supplies before the
closing of school.
The Of1cers of the Association
are to be congratulated on this
most practical innovation. We hope
that there will be others.
