OUTGOINGS AND HOMECOMINGS OF OUR PRINCIPAL
BY: Reporter Mary Thomas
Miss Tall received an invitation to speak at the Kansas Teachers' Convention, which was held as Salina, Topeka, Witchita, and Independence, Kansas, on October 17-18. She spoke at two places-Topeka and Salina. The topics in both cities were the same.
The the Grade Group Miss Tall spoke on "The Couse of Study and explained the importance of Methods of Teaching as a part of the Curriculum."
The College Group heard Miss Tall on "Great Expectations."
"Kansas has a paid up membership in the Association of 15,000 teachers. The Association has a paid secretary to whom great credit is due for the well organized meetings.
The Rotary Club invited Miss Tall to speak to them. She says- "I found them a lively and enthusiastic group of men, and to meet them I primed myself by reading the codes of The Rotarians as published in the May number of the Annals, a publication of The American Association of Politcal Science.
"On the way back I stopped and visited the University of Kansas, at Lawrence, spending a morning with the Dean of Women and going through the Dormitories with her. I visited for a day in Detroit Teacher's College and discussed the course of Study with Dean Stuary A. Courtis.

Miss Dowwell, Chairman of the Faculty Committee, now considering student programs, is using the Detroit Teachers' College schedule to assist us in criticising our own daily schedules.
