The public is always interested in anything new. Men know all about the equipment of the latest model in auto- biles—housewives listen eagerly to one who_talks of some new household device. Does the public in general know that education is changing—that finer, newer methods are being introduced? Lack of thesa changes prevents un- derstanding of the new methods. This meeting “will give ajl who tend a chance to find out just what newest and best in the schools of today. The association members hope for a large attendance.
