.LABOR'S ATTITUDE
UPON EDUCATION
Report Of American Federation
Gives Suggestions
IMPORTANT STEPS TAKEN
Committee Recommends That Work
ers Be Trained In Industrial Lines
and That Technical Training
Is Necessity.

Toronto November u-Organized labor S
attitude on the vital question of industrial
education was set forth in a report to the
conventicn of the American Federation of
Labor today by special committee APP
pointed by authority of the Denver con-
vention to investigate the subject. The
committee, of which John Mitchell is
chairman, held three meetings during the
year-in New York, Washington and To-
ronto.
1T is believed" says the report, that
the future welfare of America largely de-
ponds upon the industrial training of our
workers and protecting them. The in
qulries of the committee seem to indicate
that If the American workman is to main
tain a high standard of efficiency, the
boys and girls of the country must have
an opportunity to acquire educated hands
and brains, such as may enable them to
earn a living in self-selected vocation
and acquire an intelligent understanding
of the duties of good citizenship.
1--WE favor the establishment of schools
in connection with the public school sys-
tenn, at which pupils between the ages of
IA and 1e may be taught the principles of
the trades, not necessarily in separate
buildings, but in separate schools adapted
to this particular education and by COM
petent and trained teachers.
Course of instruction.
1.-THE course of instruction in such a
school should he English, mathematics,
physics, chemistry, elementary mechanics
and drawing The shop should provide in
struction for particular trades, and for
each trade represented the drawing,
mathematics, mechanics, physical and bio
logical science applicable to the trade. the
history Of that trade and a sound system
of economics, including and emphasizing
the philosophy of collective bargaining,
should be detailed. This will serve to
prepare the pupil for more advice in the
subjects, and in addition to disclose his
capacity for d specific vocation. In order
to keep such schools in close touch with
the trades there should be local advisory
boards. including representatives of the
Industries, employees and organized labor.
The committee recommends that any
technical education of the workers In
trade All industry being public neces-
sity. II should not be private but a
public function, conducted by the public
and the expense involved at public cost. I"
Trade Education.
The continuance of progressive depart
ment of supplemental trade education, as
inaugurated by trades unions, Is also rec
commended. The committee advises the
continuation OF it's life and final report

ON TALKING TOO MUCH.
Philadelphia Ledger)


Ii was said of the great Prussian Field
Marshal Won Moltke that he could be 81
lent in seven languages. John Milton, the
teTcentenaTy of whose birth was lately
celebrated. refused to let his daughters
learn any other than their mother tongue
on the ground that one tongue was
enough for woman. Perhaps had Milton
realized that silence may be cultivated no
less than speech he might have been will
ing to let his daughters study to be
silent in half a dozen languages besides
their own. BY talking too much we mean,
more generally. the thinking aloud of the
''henminded" order of persons, whose
brain land consequently whose tongue
is wholly occupied with the most iDsignifi-
cant trifles. Some people can talk a great
deal without talking too much because
their conversation is Of interesting things,
it is eniveden by flashes of wit and inn
agination. il distinguishes between mat
tiers of enduring Importance and the mere
chaff which the wind driveth away. The
talk of other people may be relatively
not so great in quantity. but il is like the
inconsequcnt chatter of apes. fun of
sound and fury. sgnifying nothing '-the
kind of talk that is first cousin to the
buzzing of flies on a window pane.

PARTIAL PARALYSIS
MAY BE ENTIRELY OF A FUEC-
TI0NAL CHARACTER.
Il Is Not Necessary to Accept 1t as
Z Hopeless Since There Are Many
Well Authenticated Cures.

There is absolutely no way of reach
ing the nerves with medicine except
through the blood. The nerves receive
all of their nourishment and support
from the blood which, under healthful
conditions, carries the elements needed
to rebuild wasted nerve tissue.
Let the blood become deranged and
deficient in these elements and the
nerves will be badly nourished and
headaches, neuralgia, sciatica. fuuc-
tional paralysis and host of other ner-
yous troubles may result.

an instance was the cure of Mrs. Eliza
