BENEFIT FOR MAN JAL TRAINING

TRENTON, Jan. q, 1Sy7.-President Mac
Alister, Of Drexel Institute, Philadelphia.
lectured last night before the pupils of
the State Schools, ON Manual Training as
am Essential Element in General Educa-
ton" He n,sde reference to the value of
technical schools in this city in relation
to the pottery industry.
DR.. MacA1ister said that all educators
agreed ON two definitions of education
First, that 1t consists OF the full and har-
monious development Of the powers Of
mans mind; and second, that the end of
all education is to bring man into true
relation with his environments
Manual training Is one of the things
which has found its way into American
schools recently to improve them, and it
has as much right there as music or draw
ing, or scientific lessons We learn by do
ing as well as by thinking.
The Russian exhibit at the Centennial
gave the impetus to manual training in
this country, and the subject was imme-
diately taken up in Boston, and by Phila-
delphia in 1885.
Matthew Arnold. says the best thing you
can give a boy is the power to permit him
to do the right thing, and nothing APP
proaches this power. as does manua train
ing.
General manual training in schools
would lessen much Of the present-day
snobbishness which keeps men from the
workshop.
Much Of the present social unrest
comes largely from the class which has
no al nor ability, for industrial
WOrk. skilled men tn the nun0H of
fifty will apply for a mechanical Job in
response to an advertisement in a Phfla-
delphia paper. while 500 men will answer
this will be changed by manual training
in the schools.

American industry needs the projection
OF superior skill as well as a tariff. We

The vice-Chancellors of the Court of

Who has fr%equented the chambers much
can easily tell by the temperature of the
room who will sit on the bench that day
long before the Equity Judge arrives.
For instance if the thermometer stands
precisely at 10 degrees, its a dollar to a
doughnut that Vice-C Chancellor Henry c..
Pftney will hear motions. Should it hap
happen to be at 70 degrees, then for q

the lighted end of his cigar to the bulb

Instantly the thin red column began to

The Evening Journal of this city is
the property of Mr.. Sheffield Phelps of
Teaneck, Bergen county. So is the Daily
Advertiser of Newark.
The Journal has devoted many
columns of its reduced issue, Of late, to a
pretended advocacy, of equal taxation.
The Advertiser" yesterday, took up
the subject In an article headed Mostly
for One County" h is what it said
road tax bills introduced in the Assembly
by Mr.. Klink of Hudson, is that the tax
on ~second-class property. should be in
creased to 2 per cent, and be paid to the
municipalities. This is in accordance with
the suggestions of Commissioner Black,
Of the State Equal Tax Commission, in
his supplemental report to the Legisla-
ture; BY this plan the State Treasury
you'd Civ up about $205, 500 of it's pres
emit annual revenue, and the railroad and
canal companies would pay increased
taxes amounting to about $163, 900 more.
The way in which this tax money would
be distributed under the proposed plan is
Interesting Essex county would be bene-
flied to the amount of about $500 a year.
and Hudson county would get $780, SIG a
year. in addition to the large income the
county now receives from railroad taxes.
The great bulk of the increase would go
to Jersey City, Out of the total tax

would get about $4,000, and one county,
KINKS bill will have a hard road to
travel before it can get through the
