Convincing proof that New York has attracted me is the fact that, both during the summer and next year, I am planning to be within gettable dis tance of this "Mecca of opportun. ity". During the summer 1 shall bp in Paltimnri' teaching in the Oregon, has Summer School for the citv teach- home of his ers; and for, next year, have ac cepted a position in the State Nor mal at Salem, Massachusetts, de spite "the witches." I am looking forward with the keenest interest both to the work of the summer and next year, as it will give me an opportunity to come in close touch with the best schools of the East; but, confiden tially, my observations have forced me to .he conclusion that the best schools of the East are no better than the best schools of the West. The work dene at the Oregon Nor mal compares favorably with the work done in the Training Schools of New York and Brooklyn; and if 1 was not fearful of being accused of boasting, would say that it com pares more than favoanbly; in oth er words, that it is better. This reminds me of a remark I heard a former Music Supervisor of the Brooklyn Training School, who had just returned from a Musical Con ference, make in their Assembly the other day. He said, "1 wish some thing could be done to make us Easterners as self-satisfied as are the Westerners; but, believe me, we sent some of them home from the Conference less self-satisfied", I had the opportunity of teliing him after the lecture that 1 was one of those "self-satisfied Westerners" and you can realize from the tone of this communication, that I am not yet "less self-satisfied". I, however, realize that both the West and the Eait have nuch to do be fore educational conditions are ideal.
