DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION. By Telegraph—Press Association. WELLINGTON, April 23. An important educational mission is to be carried out during the next few weeks by the Director of Education (Mr T. B. Strong). Mr Strong will leave by the Makura to-morrow to attend at Melbourne a conference of directors of education of all the Australian States, including Hobart. The deliberations are expected to last ten days. While in the Commonwealth, Mr Strong intends to look as closely as possible into agricultural education, into schemes that have been adopted for the education of mentally deficient children, and into measures taken for the prevention of juvenile delinquency.
