Ch. of Com. {Continued on p. 3 of Cover GENERAL PURPOSE OF THE ASSOCIATION In every field of human activity, tlie individuals and agencies engaged are more and more felt to be working in harmony. All are seen to be helping in the development of a common civilisation, and each advance, whatever its place of origin, speedily oversteps local and national boundaries. The great International Exhibitions and Congresses, so char- acteristic of our time, are but an expression of this. To help this international movement, to extend its educational usefulness, to record and publish its results, and to further their practical applications, are the tasks of this Association. How it purposes to try to carry out these tasks, the following pages show; but to the actual experience of the Assembly in Paris this summer must be left the fuller de- velopment of both aims and methods. Origin of the Association The formation of an International Association has been often suggested in recent years and even discussed in various forms. The present organisa- tion dates from the (September 1899) meetings at Dover and Boulogne of the British and French Associations for the Advancement of Science. Here a small preliminary committee was formed, among whom may be mentioned Lord Lister, Sir John Burdon-Sanderson, Sir John Murray, Profs. Haddon, Lodge, Thomson, Schafer, Howes, Mavor, etc. A circular issued by this Committee led to the forma- tion of a general Committee, including upwards of five hundred members of the British Association alone. This general Committee held its first meeting at London, in October 1899, and elected as President, M. L^on Bourgeois, late French Minister of Education, and delegate to the recent Peace Congress at the Hague: as Vice-Presidents, the Rt. Hon. James Bryce, and Sir Archibald Geikie. A corresponding meeting was held in Paris, at the Ministry of Education, and a French Committee was constituted, its President being M. Gr^ard, Member of the French Academy, and Rector of the University of Paris. M. L^on Bourgeois was elected General President of the whole Association, with M. Liard (Permanent Secretary of State for Higher Education) as its General Secretary. As the result of these meetings, it w^as resolved to hold the first International Assembly of the Association at Paris, during the Exhibition of 1900. The cordial approval of the authorities of the Ex- hibition having been assured, a substantial initial fund was provided, ahke within the British and the French Committees. Since then, steps have been taken to organise similar committees elsewhere, notably in Belgium and Italy, in connection with the French group, while Prof. Geddes has visited the United States, and helped to organise a committee, with centres in New York, Boston, Chicago, etc., which is now in active co-operation with the British group. A Canadian group is also being formed. The Paris Exhibition of 1900 It is unnecessary here to insist upon the mag- nitude, completeness, and magnificence of this Exhibition, with its collections illustrating alike the natural products, the industries and the arts, the commerce, and the institutions of every country. Perhaps no advance upon its predecessors is more marked than its arrangement, which is such as to make international comparison easy, and inter- national co-operation, as well as rivalry, in all main departments of activity, perhaps most obvious of all. So vast a material display, alike of the resources of nature, of the applications of science, and of the masterpieces of art, and this from all countries, requires a correspondingly wide survey of the world of intellect and of ideals, and as full an apphcation of the highest aims of special and of general education. Thus it is characteristic of a modern Exhibition to organise Congresses as well as Departments. It is for the Assembly to profit by both of these ; and, in so far as may be, to serve not only as a meeting-place, but as a clearing-house of culture. Department of Congresses The first task of the Association and its Assembly is thus to co-operate with the various International Congresses to be held during the Exhibition, and, wherever necessary or desirable, to aid the existing agencies in recruiting suitable members for these. Many specialists of aU kinds will also attend the Exhibition without being able to be present at the exact time of the particular Congress most interesting to them. To them will be of special value not only the Congress Information Bureaux of the Assembly, but the special Rendezvous which it is arranging in the Exhibition, at the University, the rooms of learned societies, etc. Thus each member of the Association, on reaching Paris, may be able rapidly to reach its resources, and to meet his fellow - workers, French and foreign alike. In view of the press of visitors, early communication with the Secretaries is of course desirable. The International Assembly is included in the official list of Congresses as the permanent "Ecole Internationale de I'Exposition."

Records and Graphic Summaries of the Results of Congresses Besides keeping record of the Congresses in the usual way, it will be attempted, as far as possible, to indicate their main problems and to summarise their main results by a full use of graphic methods. These are being prepared, not only in relation to the con- temporary movement of the sciences and arts, but to their historic development. These may be correlated with the Retrospective Collections (Musses Centen- naux) which promise to be so interesting a feature of this Exhibition. In this department it is hoped to unite the clearest thought of many minds towards an increasingly synthetic presentment of the historic development, the actual ' state, and the immediate problems of the sciences, and these in their relation to the progressive forces of civihsation. * Department of University Arrangements A marked feature of recent educational progress has been the revival of close and cordial inter- academic relations, and these especially between the universities of different countries. It is again a tradition of the higher learning that the student should have experience of other schools. The friendly relations which the Congresses of the Ex- hibition must aid in forming among special workers in all countries, ought certainly to further this movement, since such special workers for the most part are real, if unofficial, representatives of the universities and learned societies of the world. In this connection also, M. Gr^ard, not simply as President of the French branch of the Association, but in his official capacity as Rector of the Univer- sity of Paris, has already communicated with the Faculties of all the Universities and Colleges of the British Empire and of America. But the interest of Paris is not confined to the professor or teacher. The facilities of the great university deserve to be better known by students, and to this end the Secretaries will gladly answer inquiries. University Summer Schools The usual courses of the Sorbonne, the College de France, and the professional schools generally, naturally close with July. During July and August special courses for the study of the French language, literature and history, are arranged by the Alhance Frangaise (address 45, rue de Grenelle, Paris). Other courses in different subjects are being arranged. Department of Skilled Guidance The majority of visitors to Paris this year will, of course, come primarily for the purpose of seeing the Exhibition, rather than to attend any of its Congresses; hence the furnishing of inter- pretation and skilled guidance to all the Depart- ments of the Exhibition, so that the visitor may see more thoroughly those things in which he is specially interested, as well as understand more of the Exhibition generally, becomes a department of the Assembly's work. It is proposed to supply this skilled guidance partly through the information bureaux already mentioned, but more directly by lectures and by visits to the various sections of the Exhibition. A special guide book, dealing with Paris, the Exhibi- tion, and the International Assembly, has also been prepared for the use of members. It is hoped that by this means the resources of Paris and the Exhibition may be made more readily and more fully available for the intelligent visitor. LECTURES During the period of the Exhibition an ample supply of lectures, with corresponding visits, will be arranged, though the number will vary in response to the w^eekly number of members. Such lectures and guidance parties are being arranged both in French and English, and occasionally in other languages. The services of many distinguished lecturers, as fully as possible representative of their different countries, are being obtained. A preliminary list will be published at an early date, and a detailed list wiU be prepared weekly throughout the duration of the Assembly. The lectures will be broadly grouped under the main headings of Art ; Industry and Commerce ; Agriculture and Natural Science ; Hygiene ; Edu- cation ; Geography ; History, Archaeology, and An- thropology; Economics; and Social Science. Each week some lectures will be given in all these divisions ; but from week to week, and, still more, from month to month, somewhat greater attention will be given to one department. This will naturally depend partly upon the succession of Congresses, partly upon the varying demand of the majority of members. In May, the season of the opening of Art Exhibitions generally, Art will naturally receive the fullest attention. In June and July Industrial and Technical questions may appropriately come forward. In the latter part of July, and especially in August and September, Education and Hygiene may be especially prominent; in September and October Social Economy, and the general summing up of the results of the Exhibition. The nature of the lectures proposed may be briefly outlined: — I. POPULAR COURSES Eaxjh Tv^eek there will be given two or more lectxires descriptive of the Exhibition as a whole, its organisation and arrangement, etc. II. SPECIAL COURSES Obviously the chief need of the visitor is supplied by special courses in subjects included in the general classification given above. In some cases lectures will be addressed to those conversant with technical details. A large number will require no special pre- vious knowledge, but will seek to interpret the pro- gress of each art and its underlying science for the intelligent public. in. GENERAL COURSES These will endeavour to interpret the Exhibition and its main features in a more general and philo- sophic way, and this in relation to the general progress of the closing century and to the urgent problems of the opening one. In this way the Congresses, and the widely representative gathering of specialists of all kinds, which they bring together, may be viewed as a vast resource of educational power, to be as far as possible utilised by the Association for the benefit of the intelligent visitor. The Assembly will thus serve as a useftil intermediary between the Con- gresses and the public. One of its main tasks is thus to summarise, interpret and diffuse the results of science, legitimately popularising these without vulgarising them; on the one side interesting a widening public, and so recruiting for every science and for the Congresses of future years; on the other, aiding the specialist himself to see and to present his subject both from the widest speculative aspect and the most practical side, here developing its applications, there justifying its place in culture. The scheme is not simply that of organising the greatest of Summer Schools hitherto, but, as already indicated for the Congresses, it has a synthetic purpose also. It seeks to view and to set forth the Exposition in its highest aspect — the Museum of the Present, interpreted by the University of the Present. Against poptdar schemes of education, such as the summer school, the reproach of superficiality has been made and perhaps not always without some justice, while purely academic studies are apt to incur either that of narrowing intensity or of vague generality. In presence of this concrete museum of the Exposition and of the critical and constructive w^orth of the Congresses, the reconcilia- tion of specialist accuracy and synthetic clearness may be hoped for, and, if not completely, at least in some degree reahsed. Headquarters of the Assembly Accommodation has been amply and generously granted to the Assembly, both within the Exhibition and elsewhere. As a recognised Congress, a number of meetings will be held in the Palais des Congres, 13 and an excellent rendezvous, with rest-room, etc., has been constructed in the basement of this building for its exclusive use. Lecture or meeting rooms have been allotted in the Palais de I'Enseignement, the Trocadero, the Canadian Department, the Alliance frangaise, the Palais de I'Economie Sociale, etc. Out- side the Exhibition space has been given in the University of Paris, in the Mus^e Social, the Hotel des Soci^t^s Savantes, etc. Details will be found in the Assembly Guide Book and upon the ticket of Membership. Members should, on visiting the Exhibition, find their way to the Central Information Bureau, Ecole Internationale de V Eocposition, Classe I., Palais de I'Enseignement, Champ de Mars, where programmes, tickets, etc., will be obtainable. Department of Excursions PARIS, IN HISTORIC AND CONTEMPORARY SURVEY Paris itself, apart from the Exposition, has, of course, an almost unlimited wealth of attractions for the visitor; while the environs are scarcely less rich in historic and in picturesque interest. Hence the scheme of Excursions not only comprehends the Exposition, nor even the Museums, Galleries, and Monuments of the city, but is being so arranged as to give the visitor an idea of the historic de- velopment of Paris through the ages, from her initial islet of the Seine to her actual present. Special excursions of geological and botanical interest are being arranged for students of Natural Science. Attention may here be drawn to the 14 interesting excursions arranged by several of the Congresses — especially in the Natural Sciences. The aim of the excursions throughout will be deeply educational. More and more, direct observa- tion is insisted on by teachers, whether of physical, biological, or sociological phenomena, and it is hoped that this department of the Assembly may be made of real value to its members. Department of Entertainments DRAMA, MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENTS, ETC. The attractions and resources of Paris, as the most important centre of dramatic art, have also been kept in view, and the Association hopes to obtain for its members special faciUties and advan- tages, both dramatic and musical, of which par- ticulars will be given in later programmes. RECEPTIONS AND SOCIAL GATHERINGS will also be held at least once weekly. Members of the Assembly will thus be afforded opportunities of raeeting those of kindred interests, and also of seeing something of the social life of France, and special introductions of both kinds Avill be arranged for, as far as possible. Department of Publications Arrangements are being made for supplying summaries and outlines of all kinds which will be of service in understanding the Exhibition in its different departments or the work of the various Congresses. In so far as may be found useful and IS desirable without overlapping the work of Congresses or other agencies, Special Reports will be issued from time to time during or after the close of the Exhibition. It is not improbable that, without trespassing on the work of Congresses or Juries, the Assembly may take the initiative in forming several standing com.niittees to consider and report on special sub- jects. For instance, a special Committee on Museums has already been proposed. Such work will of necessity lead to a fresh series of pubhcations. Business Arrangements PROGRAMME Detailed bulletins of arrangements, with full in- formation as to lectures and lecturers, excursions, entertainments, etc., will be issued weekly and daily throughout the Assembly. TRAVELLING, HOTELS, ETC. The Secretaries will be glad at any time to give information as to travelling arrangements, hotels, and other residences in Paris. Circulars giving full details of Paris arrangements may be had from Messrs Thomas Cook & Son, Messrs Dean & Dawson, Messrs Henry Gaze & Son, Dr Henry S. Lunn, and the Polytechnic Tours. MEMBERSHIP Membership of the International Assembly is obtained by payment of one guinea (26 fr. 50), which entitles to one week's active participation in the Assembly in Paris, and includes five tickets of ad- mission to the Exhibition. For continuance in active membership in Paris a i6 further reduced fee of 12s. 6d. (15 fr. 50) weekly will be charged. A Season ticket for the whole duration of the Assembly may be obtained by a single payment of £5. This will similarly include five admission tickets to the Exhibition for each week of attendance at the Assembly.
