Abstract	The six subcommittees of this committee have presented somewhat detailed reports. The report of the first subcommittee, Professor Cole, chairman, deals with the influence of "Scientific societies and periodical literature" in improving mathematical instruction. The report of the second subcommittee, Professor Le Gras, chairman, deals with the work of "Teachers' associations and reading circles." The report of the third subcommittee, Dr. Stamper chairman, deals with the effects and work of "Teachers' institutes." In this report the committee has traced briefly the history of teachers' institutes in America, explained their past and present service, and indicated how far institute work deals with mathematical instruction. The work of the fourth subcommittee, Professor Skinner chairman, on "State supervision and inspection," is a very carefully prepared report, analyzing the whole American scheme of school administration, and explaining the work of the State superintendent of education, the State board of education, the country superintendent of schools, the country board of education, the independent school district, and the methods of inspecting schools. The report of the fifth subcommittee, Dr. Jackson chairman, on the "Activities of publishers and their agents," points out the service rendered by the large book companies. The report of the sixth subcommittee, Professor Slaught chairman, on "The teaching of mathematics in summer sessions of universities and normal schools," points out in some detail the very valuable service which has been rendered in recent years by the summer sessions. Individual sections contain footnotes. (Contains 2 tables.) [Best copy available has been provided.] (ERIC).
