upon the Wentworth field this sea-

During the running of of the first

VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOLS.

With the coming of the new school
year an experiment will be tried in
New York that will interest boards
of education and teachers throughout
the country. One of the problems be-
fore educators everywhere has been
the adoption Of some course of study
that would result in the larger attend
ance of pupils in the high schools. Sta
tistics show that something like 20
per cent of our boys and girls end
schools. 1t is becoming generally ac-
cepted that this condition is due to the
fact that instruction in most of the
high schools is designed to fit pupils
for college courses and is not of much
practical value to those who must
leave schools to earn their own liveli-
hood at an age of from 16 to IS. The
need then, is for some modification of
the high school work that will be of
special benefit to those who cannot
go to college yet who need more prepa-
ration for earning a living than the
grammar schools afford.
Under the New York plan it is pro-
posed to establish a vocational school
with a two years course as an alterna-
tive to the high school. The studies
will be selected with a view to enabling
the pupils to earn their living. The
boys will be taught metal work, carv-
ing, mechanical designing and tech
nical work in some of the better paid
trades. The girls will be given in
struction in elementary household arts,
dressmaking and millinery. The new
courses will be designed to adapt the
teaching to the needs Of the pupils.
1t will have the essential elements of
a public trade school, Superintendent
Maxwell of the New York schools has
been led to undertake this experiment
because OF the eagerness of many pu-
pills in the New York High schools to
attend night schools in which the ele-
ments of the trades were taught.
Every school of that kind that has
been opened has been overcrowded
from the first and several such schools
in process of construction have al
ready received applications for admis-
sions that will tax their capacity.
Boys and girls who must go to work
at 16 or II years of age far outnum-
Der those who can afford a college
course and the effort to equip this ma
jority with better facilities for their
future as wage earners is worthy Of
announcement everywhere.

THr REv1vINe IyDrsTRns.

The midsummer season., usually
marked by dizziness in all lines of COM
mercial and industrial activity, opens
this year with a note of optimism from
the big industrial centers which prom
ises a marked revival from the de-
preston which began with last Octo-
Der and has been slow in disappearing.
The Carnegie Steel company reports
that IL has more men at work than at
any time since the first Of the year
and that business is steadily increas-
ing. The Republic Iron and Steel COM
pany %oun that 1t will reopen its
shops on July /, with orders enough
on hand to keep the full force work
ing for the rest of the year. These
two firms have received orders for
240,0 tons of steel bars for the
agricultural implement manufacturers.
The Frick Coke company has given
orders for the construction of 1000
miners houses and authorizes the
statement that they will all be re-
quired for the workmen in its new
plants.
Such actual existing facts OF bust
ness promise within a short time a
restoration of normal conditions in all
branches of the iron and steel manu-
featuring industries. The Pennsyl-
vania railroad has ordered all of its
freight cars prepared for immediate
service because of an Increase in
freight shipments. The New York Cen
trail has put a force at work to get
5000 freight cars repaired within
thirty days and 5000 men employed
in the maintenance department have
been put back to work after a lay-off
of foul months. other railroad lines
in the east are getting ready for
heavier business, with a prospect for
an exceedingly busy six months during
the remainder of the present year.
The most encouraging feature of this
revival is its appearance in the sum
mer a of a presidential year. Even
the most optimistic prophets have
hardly looked for a business uplift be-
fore fall. The crop outlook, too, is
highly satisfactory and should go far
to fastening a fairly full resumption
of the currents of production and
trade.

In his review and criticism Of The plat
form adopted by the republican conven-
ton Colonel Bryan gives a deliciously UNI
conscious revelation of his attitude to-
ward representative government when he
says:
The republicans who attended the ma
tional convention as spectators and Joined
in the demonstration in favor of Presi-
must have felt indignant as they watched
the pAnic-strlCken delegates running over
each other in their effort to get away
from the La Toilette reforms, some of
which had been endorsed by the president
himself.
Whatever charges may be sustained
against the delegates at Chicago, that Of
being "panic-stricken" is certainly not
among them. They did refuse to be
stampeded by the galleries, and this seems
to Colonel Bryan, naturally, to be a matter
for grave complaint. His own theory OF
reform is to break dowr and remove every
obstruction hat now exists between gov
eminent and the fleeing gusts of passion
or frenzy that at irregular intervals possess
the multitude. To him the organized, me-
chanical and perfectly drilled demonstra-
tions of the few thousand men, women and
children in the Coliseum galleries are incl
lance than the deliberate and considered
action Of the $50 delegates on the floor.
Colonel Bryan believes firmly, IL he be-

Atlantic Constitution (dem).
The republicans have unquestionabiy SEE
lected the most effective and available
candindste for a contest that sives every
promise Of marking an epoch in American
politics. Mr.. Taft's record and his per
sonality comprise the broad qualities es-
sentisl to IN American president, in a
degree not even remotely approached by
any Of his whilom rivals.
II is as impossible to conceive OF Mr.. Taft
assuming a bigoted, partisan or geograph-
ical viewpoint on any national issue as II
is impossible to conceive Of similar astigma-
tism on the part Of Mr.. Roosevelt. In a day
dominated to the last degree by the spirit
Of democracy carried to its ultimate mean
ing, his sympathies and conceptions appear
Of such caliber as will make him, II elected,
president Of the whole nation, in fact as
well as in designation.
Viewed from the standpoint Of the OPP
position party, the nomination of such a
man can be but gratifying, for it carries
with 1t the certainty that even II the re-
publicans are to win, the country will nave
in the executive chair for four years more
a big, broad, patriotic American Of whom
the whole nation will have cause to be
proud.
