Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book sees the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools gather for its seventh annual meeting. The year is 1902, and the Association saw an address from Chancellor W. S. Chaplin, who discussed the need for a set purpose in those who desire success, acknowledging the role of home, church, and school in teaching morality. Superintendent L. H.
