DIAMOND JUBILEE
TEACHERS' INSTITUTE This year marks the diamond jubilee of the establishment of the New Zealand Educational Institute, the annual conference of which is to open in Christchurch next Tuesday. The opening will be attended by the Prime Minister, Mr. Fraser, the Minister of Education, Mr. Mason, and the Director of Education, Dr. Beeby. Mr. James Wilkinson, of Rangiora, who is the sole survivor of the founders of the institute, will also attend. The president, Mr. D. Forsyth, of Dunedin, will preside. It is fitting that the conference should take place in Christchurch, the birthplace of the organisation. On January 3, 1883, 18 representatives of the various teachers organisations of New Zealand met theie in the cause of education, and started the New Zealand Educational Institute.
