At its recent convention IN Cleveland the Ma

vocational training than TO anything else. and a
more definite idea be gained OF what was
wanted than before The consensus Of optn-
ion seemed TO favor general education, including
manual training up TO fourteen for all children:
after that shop training for all those intending to
go into the trades regular shops, provided with
all modern machinery and appliances being at
tached TO each school. An adjustment with each
trade represented in the shop advised, so that
the graduates from the course swaud be accepted
advanced apprentices or journeymen- The
eght-hour day should prevail in these school shops,
with no vacations but legal holidays and the
month of August It was declared that we are
increasing the number not only of unemployed, but
OF the unemployabIe'; that there should he scho-
arshps for other than literary qualities; and that
