The membership of the Korth Central Association of Collegee and Secondary Srhools is cnmpost ' d of (he Ifaditig colleges and preparatory schools in the fol- lowinir states: Colorado, niinois, Indiana.

The standard set by the Asso- ci;itiMii fi.i- thf Seroridary Schools is that tho curriculum shall be broad enough and the subjects thomuKhly enough taught amply to prepare till ' -tiidi ' tit who jjrjiduntes for the ht Ht i-olleta ' and univeroitiea in thia OQOntry, including the Governmiwit luaidBalM, West Point and Annapolis. Impeetors. The Association maintains u Board of Inspectors, the members of which, by means of written reports and pwsonal imipeetion. keep In close touch with the work of each s .-huol and m.

Hm Importance and Meaning of GovemnM[l|t, In selecting the nvist desirable milituy school, it is important to choose one whidl is directly supervised by the War Depart- ment of thtj L ' liiti ' d States Cuvernment. Such mililary ttchoule. ami only «uch, enjoy, free of exptmne, the services of a high-salar- ied military officer. The money thus saved tu the Hchooi is. in Wcntworth liililary Acad- emy, expended on ad tional teidiag ' .llttA saperior equipment. Schoolfl under Government supcrviaion are also equipped with C ' .ov« rnment apparatus worth thousands of doliara. This other schools cannot afford. To got and retain these advantajre-; r o r- tain high standard of work, and of equip- ment and aaniitary ednditkma, milftWwBBii tained. Thus i!((uippcd and otticered, flChodls under Government supervision secure such organ- ization, discipline, and elBcieney as to win the respect and confidence of their students and make work in nil liepartmonts better. To secure these ends the United Stirte Government makes rigid inspeeHdnii. Tai TninsBRun soom.
