has lar and away the lead OF us in the
matter OF industrial education. and for

The States OF Massachusett New
York and New Jersey all vote appro-
pr:at:Cns to help their trade schools.
The State OF Wisconsin permitted the
, city of Milwaukee to tax itself for
! this purpose, and we are ooing to ask
the Indiana Legislature to grant a
; similar privilege. Ultimately we hope

OUR KERN GOES 10 WASHINGTON

The following letter, dated at Wash iugJon D. C., April ST. was received 5y Jack Keller on one Of the last boats:
 ! am sending you a post card. I visited the Capitol. the Rotunda Hau. viewing the many historical paintings the Supreme Court holding their sessions. galleries for the Presidents family, the members of Congress and their families. the Foreign DipIo- mats. the General Public, a trip to the Jop of tae dome. getting a near CT view of the wonderful frieze that surrounds 1t with an outside view of tae objects immediately surrounding the Capitol Building.
 Washington City Is full Of memories Of the past and bears the imprint of present majesty almost approaching grandeur The wealth and love of all our people contribute to its in creastng glory; the lowly and the btgb-au are the common and right .tI owners of the Queenly Washing ton.
 It is the plain duty of every Am crtcap citizen to at least once in life time visit the Capital of his Ma ton. This has been my second visit. Such a visit sets the heart on fire with greater devotion to the needs e country. and tends to broaden the conception of our country's great ness and to quicken into action the lofty patriotism of our people.
 With best wishes

GERMANS CUT YANKEE GRAIN
Russia VIII Furnish Bulk of Product
THE Tear--HIah Prices Are
Not Felt.

Berlin.-A great reduction in the
importation of American grain int
Germany is predicted by members OF
the Berlin grain exchange. who de
clare that this year the German con
sumner is practically independent OF
the United States as a source Of sup
ply.
Noting the fact that the recent
sharp advances in the American mar
ket failed to produce any material ef
feet on the Berlin exchange. the
hourse expert Of the Tageblatt SAYS
that the reason may be found In the
exceptional conditions which enable
Germany to rely almost entirely upon
other countries. While American
wheat has gone up in consequence of
the general rise in all commodities
the Russian crops are expected to be
large enough to cover the entire Ger
man demand at lower prices. Hence
adds the writer, the Berlin exchanges
are responding more readily to price
conditions in Russia than to the fiuc
tuations in the American markets.

Athletics for Young Girls

making 1t more real and human. 1t
Yields about the community, the home
and the school solid bond of beauty.
Folk dancing and athletics for girls
have taken a strong grip upon the
consciousness of the community. A
little girl not more than seven years
of age, in an east side school, took
part in a friendly competition of folk
dancing and athletics between her
class and others of the school She
was the smallest tot of them all, and
clad in her plaid skirt-the plaid of
her Highland clan-she danced the
Highland Schottische' with an aban-
don and enthusiasm that could not be
eQualed. Her whole family came to
see her and to exult in the part that
she had in the competition. The High
land girl and the Highland dance won
the day. The little one and her mates
of the triumphant class each bore
home as trophies small copies of the
Winged Victory, which have been pro-
vided through the generosity of Mrs.
Henry Siegel.
Two days afterward this little girl
was seen on the street in company
with her three-year.old sister. teach.

New York City Authorities Officially
Recognize Necessity of Such
Training.

New York.-Athletics for school
girls have been officially recognized
In New York city. Last November.
Miss Elizabeth Burchenal was ap-
pointed inspector of athletics by the
department of education. The girls
branch of the Public School Athletic
league employs five assistants for
Miss Burchenal and supports in all
eleven after school classes in folk
dancing and athletics for girls.
The popularity of these classes is
indicated by the attendance-1,05l
teachers from 246 schools. These
teachers in return for the instruction
they receive coach the girls athletic
clubs organized in their own schools
Interclass athletic competitions are
held but no interschool competition is
countenanced by the girls branch
This spring about two hundred athlet.

ton.
