MAKE IT BEST MEETING YET Men and Women of National Rep utation on Program For Addresses and Papers. Greensboro, Nov. 16. Greensboro is busy getting ready for the twenty-? ninth meeting of the North Carolina Teachers' Assembly which will meet in this city, Wednesday to Saturday, November 27-30, the intention and desire of both the officers of the Asso ciation and the local committee having the matter in charge being to make it the biggest and most successful meet ing in the entire history of the Assembly. ' ;.,The . program calls for fifty "three separate -papers and addresses, includ ing many names of uational reputation. . Among these may be mentioned Hon.. E. T. Fairchild, ': Superintendent of Public Instruction of Kansas and Presi dent of the National , Educational Association;' Doctor D. Strayer, pro fessor of the Teachers' College of Col umbia University and author of "Teac . ing Process"; . Miss Annie S. George, President of the Montesseori American Committee and the greatest American , authority on the MontesseOri method; Miss Naomi Norsworthy, of the Teach- i ers' College of Columbia University, and a noted authority on primary work. The matter of board and lodging .for the visiting taechers, which has fre quently caused trouble, is being handled in a systematic manner.". The Greens boro Woman's Club has undertaken the task of securing homes for seven to eight hundred teachers, and as far as possible homes will be assigned in advance of the meeting at the uniform rate of $1,50 per day. A committee headed by Mrs. C P. Langley of 836 West Market street has the matter in charge, and those wishing accommo dations reserved should communicate with her.. This is in addition to the regular hotels which can take about three hundred teachers. r A Bureau of' Information and Gen eral Headquarters will also be main tained and all teachers have been re quested to report there immediately upon their arrival. ; a-: x City pride as well as interest in education and regard for the hundreds of visiting teachers has caused extra efforts to be made towards the success of the meeting; this being especially true of Greensboro which takes es pecial pride in the fact that it was the first city in the State to levy a special tax for graded schools and the center of the county which blazed the way in the matter of rural taxation. It is expected that from one thou sand to twelve hundred tachers will be in attendance, and unless all signs fail, the meeting will be a striking success from every standpoint. MRS. LEGCETT DEAD. .
