WE have met the Hotel Victory at Put-in-Bay, and it is ours.

OHIO has the greatest musical leader in the world. He had charge of the music at Put-in-Bay. His name is Arnold J. Gantvoort, president of the National Music Teachers' Association.

"GANTVOORT'S Goslings" can "outgozzle" any "goslings" in this or any other country.

THE STATE MEETING.

An ideal meeting held in an ideal place seemed to be the common sentiment expressed regarding the Association whose proceedings are published in full in this issue.

The attendance was not as large as it should have been-not quite as large

as usual, but the interest manifested by those who did attend was all that could be asked-was greater than usual.

The executive committee made no mistake in selecting Put-in-Bay as the place of meeting, and Hotel Victory has proved that it can care for the State Association with perfect satisfaction to every one. The sentiment of those present is undoubtedly in favor of making The Victory our home as long as we can receive such treatment as we did this year, and a pleasant home it will be. The motion fo change the time of holding the annual meeting to the Christmas Holidays was defeated by a large majority. Since this matter has been settled, for the present at least, let our motto be "Put-in-Bay for 1899."

The program was carefully arranged by the executive committee, to whom the success of the meeting is largely due. It was interesting and instructive, and at no time tedious. Some were unavoidably absent, but as a rule their places were filled by others to the complete satisfaction of all.

The Annual Address by Dr. S. F. Scovel, of Wooster University, on "The Culture of the Emotions," was eloquent, scholarly, and inspiring. We regret that it cannot be published. All the other addresses, papers, and discussions are published in full in this issue, making an exceptionally valuable number.

No words can express the thanks due Prof. J. A. Gantvoort, and Dr. W. H. Venable for their beautiful, and inspiring song, "Hurrah for the Schools of Ohio." For the first time in the history of Ohio, the school teachers of the State have a rallying song dedicated to them.

In addition to the resolution published in this issue recommending to all managers of county institutes that they adopt this Grand Rallying Song for use in the institutes, we feel sure that we voice the sentiments of all who attended

the State Association when we say it should be adopted in every school in Ohio, and taught to all the children. By so doing we shall not only serve to increase the love of the children for their native State and the schools which are such an important factor in its welfare, but also show in a practical manner our sincere appreciation of what Prof. Gantvoort and Dr. Venable have done for us. The song is copyrighted by The John Church Company, Cincinnati, Ohio, to whom all orders should be sent.
