TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION CONVENES HERE TODAY

The annual gathering of the Harvard Teachers' Association will start today at 9.45 o'clock in Sanders Theatre with a business meeting followed by addresses and a discussion on "Educational Foundations, and the Administration of Educational Endowments." The annual dinner of the Association will be held at 1 o'clock in the Union, with Professor H. W. Holmes '03, Dean of the Graduate School of Education, as toastmaster. Between 50 and 100 people are expected to attend this part of the day's program.

The first address of the morning will be by Dr. Clyde Furst, secretary of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. He will be followed by Dr. S. P. Capen '00, director of the American Council on Education, and Dr. Wallace Buttrick, president of the General Education Board. The subject of their speeches will be "The Aims and Work of the Great Educational Foundations", and each of them will discuss the particular phase of the question with which he has the greatest familiarity. After Dr. Buttrick's speech, a general discussion will take place, and will continue until just before the dinner.

Professor Holmes Will Preside

The speakers at the dinner, at which Professor Holmes will preside, will be Dr. Lemuel H. Murlin, President of Boston University, Professor Henry Penny-packer '88, chairman of the Committee on Admission, and Professor Edmund Ezra Day '09, chairman of the Department of Economics. Professors Penny-packer and Day are speaking in place of Dr. W. A. Neilson '96, President of Smith College, who has been forced to cancel his engagement due to illness. Their subject will be different phases of the question, "Problems in the Use of College Endowments." Dr. Murlin, as president of a great educational institution, is exceptionally well qualified to discuss this subject, and Professors Pennypacker and Day can discuss the question as they have seen it here at the University.
