THE EDUCATION ASSOCIATION.
THE Charlottesville Education
Assocation was organized Mar.
9, 1906, at the Midway School
building, the following officers
being elected for the ensuing year:
Hon. J. W. Fishburne, president. Mrs.
C. H. Walker, first vice-president,
Mrs. A. H. Tuttle, second vice-president,
Dr. E. Reinhold Rogers, third
vice-president, Mr. Bruce R. Payne,
secretary, Captain Thomas P. Peyton,
treasurer. The educational league
has a wide scope of operation. First
and foremost is the improvement of
conditions surrounding public schools
and the beautification of the city. The
league will acquire a library and will exert
its influence along with that of the
Civic Improvement League, and while
not usurping the office of any official
or officials, it will use its endeavors to
make, as the president in his remarks
stated, "An education center of Charlottesville,
and improve the general
appearance of the city." This Association
is one of the subsidiary educational
associations recommended by the
"Cooperative Educational Association
of Virginia." an organization that covers
the entire State.
