Con.oIidation Of Schools.

To the Editor OF the Indianapolis Journal:
In your issue of Monday last you edi-
torially commend the idea of district school
consolidation and quote an item from Rich
mond that is also commendatory. Permit
an additional argument of those already
given. Consolidation of the schools will un-
doubtedly permit of better sanitation. The
many schoohouses of Indiana have been
built without "A single thought of surround
ing the pupils with the best health condi-
tions. Not to make the health conditions
the very best possible is, of course. foolish
and wrong. To tax vitality to Withstand
bad air, bad lighting, uneven warming,
lack of convenences, and frequently bad
drinking water, simply means the throwing
away of money and an invitation to dis
ease. IL certainly is not an overestimate to
say that the unsantary schoolhouses of
Indiana decrease the efficiency of school
children 10 to % per cent. This means a
great loss of money, not to speak OF a loss
of children. II appears therefore, that not
the least of the benefits of district school
consolidation will be the opportunity to
build new schoolhouses. which may be so
constructed as not 10 threaten. even in the
least degree, the health and life of the pu-
pills J. n. HURRY,

For VENEZUELA.
American Manufacturers to Be Rep
resented at Caracas.

The National Association of Manufacture
ers of the United States have arranged to
hold their annual meeting at the 1o ho5 5e
n, inclusive. The executive committee OF
the association, of which Theodore C..
Search, Of this city, is chairman, Will meet
tails of the January gathering, Whlch Is ex-
pected to be large one. There is great in
terest manifested among the local manu-
facturers in the coming convention, IN
which it is expected they will have big
representation. One part of the work of
the executive committee tomorrow will be
to fix up a programme for the annual meet
ing.
in the city of Caracas, Venezuela, where
American manufactured goods can be
shown has long been pet scheme OF the
Association, and has progressed to the
point where the early opening of the ware
house has been decided upon, and those who
have engaged space in the warehouse have
been notified to prepare their exhibits for
shipment from New York to-day. The
goods will be shipped by the Red D line.
and it is expected that nearly all the eX-
hibitS thus far arranged will go forward to-
day. Some of the goods has already been
shipped
The manufacturers who have prepared
exhibits for the Caracas warehouse come
from all parts of this country. They rep
here, so that when the supplies are put on
show Venezuelans will have an opportunity
of seeing the products OF the United states
their own country.
The work of Installing exhibits will be
commenced Immediately upon the receipt
OF the first shipment, and the whole display
will be placed in order as rapidly as posi-
ble The opening of the warehouse has been
awaited with much eagerness by the people
of Venezuela.
AS an evidence of the practical value
which this warehouse will have, it may be
mentioned that a wealthy planter from a
distant section in Venezuela made a special
journey to the City of Caracas recently, UNI
der the impression that the warehouse had
been opened. He came to ascertain from
whom in the United States he could obtain
a small ice-making and refrigerating plant,
a small steam engine, tools, and machinery
for drilling artesian wells, and windmill
pumps. This is only one instance of many
such cases that have come to the attention
of the warehouse management, all tending
to show the eminently practical character
of the services which this institution will
render to the buyers in Venezuela and to
manufacturers in the United States.
Now that the shipment of exhibits has
been called for, there has been a marked
increase in the general interest in this ware
house. and a great many inquiries are being
received at the general offices of the Ma
tional Association of Manufacturers in Phil
adelphia from manufacturers who desire to
avail themselves of the facilities which this
warehouse will offer
