Professor w. l.. Thomas, professor of
sociology in the University of Chi

Industry is the spirit of Tuskgee
industry and discipline are made a
habit. The choice of some 40 trades
are offered young men and young
women. Tuskegee graduates are
earning from $50 to $50 and s1OO per
month as academic teachers, farm
managers, steam and electrical en-
gineers, tailors, teachers of domestic
science, nurses-in fact, the demand
for men and women trained in all the
trades at Tuskegee is far beyond the
supply.
The academic work is vital and
real; it is close to realities. The
school seeks soundness and efficien-
cy; the academic and industrial work
are closely correlated.
The spiritual work OF the school
is strong. 1t ranks fifth in the United
States in number of students study
ing the Bible. 1t is guided by a
Chaplain and Secretary of the Y. NJ.

School.

BLAST KILLS FIVE;
THREE OTHERS DYING

HAILEYBURY, Ont, Oct. 24.--At
least five persons were killed and
three fatally injured when the plant
or the Energite Explosive Co. was
blown up at noon yesterday.
The known dead are: Harry Long.
AZ. foreman; Robert Young, machin-
list, SO; w. II. Mclaughlin, SO, car
penter; Thomas Popleton, 40, and
Chris Eckerson, 3S.
Mrs. Chris Eckerson is badly in
jurcd on the mead and body and not
expected tc live. and Charles Gutof-
sen and George Malen, laborers, were
internally injured. Three factory
buildings were totally wrecked by the
explosion and many houses damaged.
The cause OF the explosion is not
known, but workmen say that some
thing went wrong with cie electrical
mixing machinery and the powder
mixture caught fire.
Men employed at the mixing ma.
chine warned the factor yand nearly
all escaped unhurt. Several workmen
have not been accounted for, how
ever, and 1t is feared their bodies may
have been blown TO bits by the ex-
plosion.
