James M. Stevens. J . :|i:,l "f the Ocean' City State Sll;„, Srhn.il, who. he sai.l. would •eln-me them and toll them all ulmut . pi . !. Stevens, in welcoming those ( i„ ;,t ten. i: i ore, said that theft, is not v mm! not to triad to hnvc the school , am here. He twked Ms hearers to ( try t" imagine him -as a city com- , not desire to I*., and then, in the 'tl.-ein-e of May or Champion, who for i i numl-ei of years has (roe ted those ittfi i' ir these sessions, he extend- * >1 i arm weleomf to the gathering. Mr. Stevens sai.L that they have 400 !j tearhei - at the summer school who f air i h'.i- improving themselves ami nrcpa 1 1 1 x to teach school. There has never i-'.n a lirijchter or letter class J wh.».l than this year. Kach year the '' starting classes appear to be lietter than tho-c of the previous year. The instructors are tryinjr to Rive these ' teachers the right attitude for their c work, with their hearts full of love ' for the children. They are e'nenurag- r *1 by the presence of the schoolmen. Mr. Stevens said that his great J] trouble is to keep his studcrfts in the summer school from working too Jason S. Hoffman, county superin- ^ tcrideirt-'of Hunterdon, said that the minds of those at the- meeting turn to Dr. Calvin Kendall, former State commissioner. Although Dr. Kendall has iiecn stricken in body, his mind is still actively concerned with educational affair*. Mr. HolTman moved that a message of greeting he sent the former commissioner, and the c motion was passed. Dr. Philhower asked all to sing : Dr. KendaH's favorite selection, "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," which Dr. Philhower'stutcd that for some time there was doubt as to the selection by Governor Ktlwards of the man to fill the positiorf of commissioner nf education* -but the governor finaily decided to appoint Mr. Endright, the grand old schoolman of the - State, who has beer, touching for fifty years. Dr. Kn right said that in looking - over the a.-scmhlage he saw many"familiar faces, hut there were also a number he did not know. The speaker immediately made a hit with his audience by telling a funny story. He said thut on one occasion he, as county' su(*rintendent, visited a country school for the first time, anil the school teacher, knowing psycho"togy, asked the superintendent Jf he •uul.l not say a few Wopls to the pupils. Dr. Knright then said he ssked the children, who were of the younger grades, if they knew who he was. They were cmlmrrasscl, ami the teacher, attempted to help them. She asked them who it was they wen- reading about the previous week si»l the little ones knew at once. They told Dr. Enright he was Benjamin Franklin. The speaker Aid he •as ;urc none gf His present hearers *ould make this mistake. Dr. Knright said that before his appointment to the office of eommi- doner of education, he, like a manlier of others, was anxious to , have this lightning strike him. When Governor Edwards sent for him, he . •a.- . i, mew-hat like the girl who had hecn maried after a courtship of ' • yean, he Was rather coy, hut he accepted the position. The speaker said that he objected l» that fifty years of school teaching referred to by Prof! Philhower. It t he fifty years until next Au7. He begun teaching on Au|P »•'" t T, 1871, and in that first -year | he had hut four holidays, wherein I ihcie to considerable difference from present-day conditions. The commissioner spoke in praise I "f the lieiiefifs to tic derived from "Schoolman's Week in creating a Personnel. A personnel is the biggest asset of any business. The most forceful thing in the schools is • personnel that will be respected. It should lie one that will show the j people that the educators know some- | Wag aliout the -business of educaI "on. When Governor Edwards called the speaker to Trenton in refcr*nre to his appointment, the State's i thief executive said to him that . - >

commission .relates to business, and that a hanker might well lie selected r for the position. As the governor I Was the jierson expressing his view. Dr. Enright said, , he agreed with him, hut he added that it is the, other r. "luarter that makes the administration of the office successful, aifd that will bring the dollars from the taxpayers. It is important "to have the office run on model business princi- , pies. Dr. Enright said. The average . layman is suspicious of the educators •^""W lodge of anything about, busi-*Bw-*penkirig on his subject of the ■ high rating of the schools of NewJersey. Dr. Enright said that, com- ' pared with California and Arizona and the giants beyond the Rockies, I this State figures fourth, hut among . the pigipiiea of the East it is first. This rating was reached by the offD , rials who made it first by the amount of money, per capita expended • for ■ education, which counted for half. - The speaker said that h% hopes this • will n„t make the taxpayer feel I that ho is paying too much. The sources of State revenue were then . briefly recounted. Of the $32,000,000 required, the State pays $12,000,000 ami the counties the remainder. population of the State is 3,200,000, and the assessed valuation of property of the State is $3 ,250, 000,000. "Die credit for the condition nf the scnfloH is due the local • communities more tlitfn to the Slate. are advantages and disadvantages to the present system, the speak-.. Cr said, referring to the matter he as just discussing^ Localities measuring up to the necessities of educais one. of the reasons for our' present high Standard. The results . of education cannot 1* measured as we "handle other things. The other, factor in reaching a derision as to New Jersey's place in the schools of the country was the matter of attendance. There qje 600,000 pupils enrolled in the State's schools. There should be one-third of this nnumher in the high schools, but the capacities of children differ, so the proportionate numlier of children in the high schools was taken with the number cnrollcjl, and New Jerseystood very high. * The rule made effective in this State in 191(5, that no one should receive a teacher's certificate unless a graduate of a high school is being rigidly enforced. f)r. Enrigth declared that the. State must preserve its present high Stan- j r.

ke dards, and care will he taken that this is done. He spoke in. praise of , 1"' the work of the credential <U»part- j or merit of the,. State Commission of j Education. - 3 Other speakers during the sessions -I " this week were Wesley A. 01-eary, 4 "assistant State commissioner;. Dr. 4 Bt Frederick W.
