VOCATIONAL EDUCATION.

The praise which has been given to
the bill introduced BY Senator Page
or Vermont. with a view to instructing
No growing generation In vocational
studies. hould be sufficient warrant
id suggestion to congress TO give
more than ordinary attention to the
measure.
Senator Pages bill attacks a uni
vershl problem from the right angle.
Fol many years congress has been
trying to improve mankind after it
has become got in its ways" 1t has
been trying to instilI n high standard
OF business ethics by putting trust
laws on the statute books, apparently
refusing to admit that laws will not
cure the weakness of ignorance or
habit. 1t has beer trying to develop
industry and improve the condition
OF men when they are past the period
during which character and habits
are formed.
Tho measure introduced by Sena-
tor Page gets to the root of every
evil that faces the public today. 1t
provides. in brief. for encouraging in
struction in agriculture, the trades
and industries, and home economies:
for maintaining instruction in these
vocational subjects in state normal
schools: for maintaining extension de-
partments in state colleges OF agricul-
ture and mechanic arts. and for an
appropriation by the government for
cooperation with the states to all
those ends.
For the government to enter tho
field OF education may be decried as
an invasion of states rights, but tho
fact that the states must do their
share before they receive national aid
seems to Oppose Of this objection. Al
ready the government is doing con-
siderable educational work, and there
is no good reaso why 1t should not
extend its activities much further.
II there is mi important work that
the government can do 1t 10 along
the lines Of education. Cooperation
between the government and tho
states in the encouragement OF 70.
cational studies would lead to greater
uniformity in education. The kind
of studies s%ugRested would lead to a
higher of business honor in the
future. and would equip the coming
generations for real service in the
world Instead Of young. men and

morality Or intelligence into mankind,
but Senator Pages measure presents
the Z chance for a Law that will
come near TO the accomplishment Of
that end.

In this issue Is given the speech of
Theodore Roosevelt before the consti-
tutional convention, Columbus. Ohio.
1t Is a strong, clear cut address-one
OF the finest expositions of true pro-
gressive principles yet given to the
American people. 1t is such a speech
as would be expected from a man who
perhaps. more than any other Ameri-
can statesman represents the ideal
citizenship of our republic. Inciden-
tally Mr.. Roosevelt takes occasion to
praise the work of LaFollette in Wis

dictate that he is a candidate for the
presidency, yet it is we'll understood
that this is the key note speech of the
campaign in his behalf and that he

clarifying and already the Roosevelt
movement has grown to such propor-

the almost unanimous choice of the
Republican national convention. A
discussion of second choice candi-
dates has developed the fact that in
