Luban 's identification of tho gunmen
was made without hesitation. When

"Business is booming and will Cct bet

reversed the ordinary routine of ban
quets by giving an address of welcome
before the elaborate menu was served.
.Mr. Chrlstensen welcomed tho visitors
In tho name of the tcachera, the princi
pals, tho supervisors of Schools, members
of school hourris nnd educators and edu
cational Institutions of Utah anil Salt
Lako. He said that the education asso
ciation represented an organization of
equal Importance with any other In this

terday of rooms showed a total of 6000
that would he available at tho tlmo ot
the convention.
Reports on Accommodations.
"Mr. ChrlKtcnsen said that local hotels
which would each accommodate from 200
to 700 guests represented a total of 3120
rooms; hotels which would accommodate
100 to 200 guests represented 1030 rooms;
smaller rooming houses and apartment
buildings represented 750 rooms, and pri
vate residences, based on the space avail
able for the recent National Irrigation
congress, represented 1000 rooms.
An Investigation of the restaurants of
the city indicated, said Mr. Chrlstensen,
thnt between the hours of 12 o'clock noon
and 1;30 p. m. a total of 1S.-I32 people
could bo comfortably served.
Meeting places, he Huggeslcd, in Salt
Lake were equal If not superior In ge.n
cral availability to thoso of any othei
city In the country. Tho tabernacle had
been offered for the larger general meet
ings. Within four or five blocks of the
tabernacle there wore six assembly halls
which would accommodate from 1000 to
1600 persons, and within a radius of an
other block a dozen more meeting placus
could bo had.
Assures Loyal Support.
In conclusion Mr. Chrlstensen assured
the committee of the loyal .npport of
every teacher and every citizen and or
ganization of Salt Lake and Utah.

violinist; Miss Myrtle Goggle, 'cello, and
Lainmlo "Williams, pianist, rendered a
programme of musical selections.
W. "W. Armstrong was Introduced as
the first speaker and as the president
of the Commercial club ho addressed his
remarks particularly to Dr. Falrchlld
and Mr. Springer, lie gayc for the club
a guarantee of proper entertainment and
assured all of the aid and assistance
of the club nnd Its facilities.
Dr. J. T. Kingsbury, president of the
University of Utah, said that the mem
bers of tho faculty of the "1" would do
a'l that poKalblv could bo done to show
the delegates to the convention what
manqer of pcoplo rcaldcd in Salt Lake
and Utah. He said that the faculty of
tho university this year represented the
product of twenty-one largo eastern uni
versities and several European Institu
tions. Speaks for Teacher.
Miss L- M. Qualtrotigh. supervisor of
the primary grades of tho Salt Lake
schools, delivered a tribute to the untir
ing and often unrewarded efforts of the
school teacher. She characterized the
teacher as the one who was llttlo known,
considered of the least Importance, who
came unheralded and departed unnoticed.
She was listened to with the greatest
attention and her remarks evoked a
great amount of enthusiastic applause.
An ovation greeted A. C. Nelson upon
his Introduction by Superintendent Chrls-
tenscn as a man upon whom all political
parties In Utah had been able to agree
for ono office.
Superintendent Nelson's address was
mostly of a humorous nature. Tic re
ferred to a question that, had been fre
quently asked htm. when he said ho would
endeavor to explain how It came about
that the association had recommended
Salt Lalco for tho convention.
Nelson Gives Reason.
"Wo found." said Mr. Nelson, "that
. veryono knew of Salt Lake. The place
scorned to bo naturally popular. It need
ed but the touch of a match lo the pow
der of desire to take the 1913 meeting to
Utah."
Fred D. Kecler was called upon to add
his portion to the arguments which were
being piled up before the committee In
an effort to show overwhelming reasons
why Suit Lake should be chosen. Mr.
Keoler spoke of educational matters In
general and traced tho necessity for gen
eral education among teachers of the
facilities of tho great and growing west.
AM van X. "While, slate superintendent
of public Instruction of New Mexico,
stopped in Salt Lake yesterday for tho
purpose of meeting and conferring with
Dr. Falrchlld and Mr. Springer oil gen
eral educational matters. Superintend
ent Chrlstensen called upon him at the
banquet and Mr. "White mado himself
Immediately popular by saying tbat he
could not sco any possible reason why
further arguments should bo presented
to the committee.
Genuine Praise.
"Personally," ho said. "If tho laws of
my slate could he changed I would be
content to mako my headquarters In Salt
Lko and direct the school affairs of
New Mexico from this point."
Continuing, he said! "Salt Lake Is an
Ideal place to hold the convention, and
there Is no doubt whatever that the peo
ple here will find proper accommodation
for all who come to attend It.
"I personally think that tho conven
tion here will be a bigger success than
it was in Chicago, this. year. People In
the big cities aro too busy to give any
particular attention to It. The delegates
are never mado to feel at homo, and It
Is not nearly so ploasant for them In the
big places. I look for the people of Salt
Lake to givo tho delegates a royal re
ception." Caine Pledges Aid;
Joseph E. Calne for a few moments
rehearsed for tho benefit of the visitors
a list of the resources of the state of
Utah and In conclusion assured Superin
tendent Chrlstensen that he would lend
his every effort to make visiting .teach
ers as comfortable as any other city In
tho world could.
"For," he aald, "I. cannot conccivu
how it would be possiblo for any com
mittee to find any other my but In favor
of Salt Lake after an Investigation of
the possibilities of this city."
