REPLY TO SUPERINTENDENT MORRISON

The New England Certificate Board has recently published an interesting circular in reply to the address of Superintendent Morrison delivered at Manchester, February 20, 1914. The full title of this circular reads as follows: "Is the New England Certificate Board an Educational Trust?. Extracts from an address by the Superintendent of Education of the State of New Hampshire with Criticism and Comment by the Secretary of the Board. Published by the authority of the Executive Committee of the Board."

The position here taken is thai Superintendent Morrison, because of ignorance of its real functions and workings, has "unintentionally misrepresented the Board" in several particulars. The method followed by the board in its publication is that of quoting brief extracts from Mr. Morrison's speech, and following each extract by a careful refutation of the statement quoted. Unfortunately, the circular is too long to be given in full in the columns of THE MAGAZINE, and too condensed to admit of further summarizing. All alumni who are especially interested in the problems of admission to college are advised to read for themselves this clear and concise statement of the position of the Certificate Board. Copies may be obtained by application to Frank W. Nicolson, Secretary, N. E. College Entrance Certificate Board, Wesleyan University, Middletown, Conn.
