MONEY IS LACKING
PLAIN TALK ON SCHOOLS OF MONT
 GOMERY.
Teacher Tells Department Of Industrial and Manuai Arts Why the Local System is De-
 ncient.

Montgomery has no room for indus trial and manual education, because Montgomery has no money to devote CTS in the public schools at present are burdened with the necessity of teach ing at times as many as four or i've subjects. To take up manual training under these conditions IS impossible, without having a larger teaching force or specialists in that line of work. These statements were made by Miss MacMillan of the teaching force of the public schools of this city yesterday, ilt reply to Q question asked her at the meeting of the Department of IndusA trial and Manual Arts of the Southern Educational Association, held at the Girls High School yesterday afternoon. We have heard of the industrial training work that is going on in Bir= mingham, Selma and Mobile" said pr, John W. Johnson of the University of 1 Mississippi. the President of the De- partment of Manual Training. in a dis cussion of number of papers that had been read. 'Tf there Is anyone here from Montgomery. wish we might hear why the Capital City has been silent on that subject
 Miss MacMilan made response:
 We have no manual training here, she said, because there Is no money for it. During the last eight or nine years, we have built five school houses. That has taken alN the money we have. To introduce manual training at the present time, 1t would be necessary to have new teachers. Taking my own case, am at present teaching the courses of drawing, writing, music and physical culture. Other teachers are working as hard. It could not be ex- pected that manual training would be added to the list of subjects we have to teach so long as our work includes instruction in so many departments"
 The program of the Department of Industrial and Manual Training, con tained several strong pleas Tor the practical education. Prof, w. H. Drane, of the University of Mississippi, in a paper along this line, urged the man. I1al and industrial education in strong terms. There has been a false pride among the people in the South, ha maintained, which as thus far kept the people from adopting practical teach- ing. He urged the more general aoop- tion of the practical education.
 Issue on this point was taken by Prof. G. w. Perry of the Georgia 1n- stitute of Technology, who expressed the opinion that the practical educa= tion was necessary for those boys ana girls who are unable to pursue their studies beyond the grammar grades: For the others, however, he believed the classical education should be given

 Indications tonight are that the pres- ent meeting of the Southern League will be the most peaceful in it's history. At the first meeting Of the directors to- night.
