The report of the Indianapolis meeting of the Department of Superintendence, March 1-3, 1910, characterizes the mid-winter meeting's role, noting its papers and discussions are of much better quality than the July N.E.A. meeting and that one is likely to meet more of the real leaders in educational work.

"Of late years, this mid-winter meeting has come to serve as a clearing-house between the educational theorist and specialist on the one hand and the practical schoolman on the other hand."
