Superintendent C. A. Howard, of

made, pressed home In a way
There Is
to be remembered
no possibility of preventing
fads,” said the speaker, “and
no cure; hut a perfected anti
constant readjustment of th-’
educational program."
In speaking of the “Education
al Responsibility In au Industrial
Age” President Landers stated
the public school had become
the burden bearer of civilization;
that one principal responsibility
was "to adjust tho Individual
to his Environment.’’
Under "Leadership,” he gave
an analysis of the situation as
and training of leaders.
Dean Sheldon gave an epitom

gon during the past 25 years,
and presented some thought ar

the closing one on Friday. "Some
Prejudices Concerning School
Masters” Dean Sheldon presented
both sides of the question very
entertainingly.
”D e v e 1 o p ment of - Moral

provoking theme and .treated In
a splendid way by Dr. Tuttle.
Under department heads, lec

speakers and instruction under
capable leadership.
