Tillman, "was the idea of Pope Leo XIII, who gave a strong im­ pulse to the rebirth of scholastic philosophy." The great value of the ACPA in promoting philosophical schol­ arship lies in its spirit of unity and concentrated effort. Its mem­ bers feel that they are not isolated, but are working to­ gether towards a common goal. In line with this first purpose, also, the Association has pub­ lished two books-Aspects of the New School Philosophy (1932) and Pro1gress in Philosophy (1955). In addition, the ACPA brings out two regular publica-

tions-The New Scholasticism, a quarterly, and Proceedings of the ACPA, an annual. The second purpose is to im­ prove the teaching of philosophy. A good example of this is the coming .convention, whose theme will be "The Role of Philosophy in the Catholic Liberal College." At conventions like this one, and at smaller regional conven­ tions during the year, teachers can compare methods of teach­ ing and profit from one another's experience. At the same time, these conventions give schools the opportunity to scout for good teachers. The free inter­ play of ideas is a valuable aid to the improvement of the teach­ ing of philosophy. In line with the third pur­ pose-communication with other individuals and groups of like interest-many members of the ACPA are also members of the Metaphysical Society. This society includes such prominent non­ scholastic philosophers as John Wile and Henry Beatch.
