In the cabinet department" says
DIR. ClaNton, the product was valued
at s3,60S.S5, and the expense was
$3,155.37, leaving a balance of s453.4S
in favor of the carpenters. Similarly,
the painting department of the school
showed a business of S1.591.25 and an
expense of s1,344.73. or a clear profit

"Gary's conspicuous success with in
dustrial training is an interesting in
dication of the spread of the modern
movement for vocational education,
which insists that in addition TO teach
ing the recognized branches, the
school must give instruction in those
subjects that are of most immediate
value to the community which sup
ports it. In Gary the dominant inter
es: is trade education; in rural dis
tricts it is largely agriculture; in the
cities it may be stenography, type
writing and other commercial branch
es. In any case, it is coming to be
felt more and more that an education
al system is incomplete that fails 10

citizens"

SCHOOLS IN GARY
WERE PROFITABLE
School Authorities Found
that Industrial Courses
Made Money.

industrial work in the schools of
Gary, Indiana, made money instead of
costing money during the past year"
says DR.. P. P. Claxton, United States
Commissioner of Education. When
the school authorities in Gary came to
sum up the results of the work in the
trade courses, they found that the
three departments of printing, cabinet
work, and painting had to their credit
a profit of $S75.4S. This is real value,
too; the pupils made articles that
were needed in the school; if they
had not made them in the school
shops the authorities would have had
to purchase them in the open market
at total price of seven or eight thous-
and dollars"
The Commissioner then gives the
figures for each of the trade classes
in the Gary schools, as reported by
G. E. Wulfing, in charge of the indus
trial instruction. In the printing de-
partment the value of the work pro-
duced was $1,972.92. The salary ex-
pense was $1,4S3.49 and supplies cost
1914, leaving a net balance in favor
of the shop of $175.43. There were So
in the printing class, so instead of fig
uring the per capita cost of the indus
trial training of these pupils. it was

other city of this hemisphere not even ST. Angus

present-the old era and the new in American

To certain extent Santa Fe may be said to
be off the main beaten paths of tIanscontinental
railway travel, being, in fact, the terminus of
branch railroad which forms offshoot of some
Is miles from the through line to the Pacific coast
However, this circumstance has not prevented

ital is situated in the middle of high plain rim
med with mountain peaks, the altitude being
more than 1000 feet above the sea, and as the
tourist climbs up to what appears to be in very
truth the roof of the world there lies spread
on either hand a panorama of far-reaching plains
guarded by a close Gordon OF blue mountains that
is simply inspiring in its sublime beauty.
The little city of Santa Fe has wealth of
"show places" any of which might be expect
ed to make the reputation of much larger city
as tourist Mecca. One of the most interesting
of these historical headliners is the famous
Church of San Miguel, the cradle of Christianity
the American continent This time honored
place of worship was built in the year 1910, but
partially destroyed in the Indian revolution
against the Spaniards in 1850. 1t was reoccu
pied by the conquerors in 1892 and was complete
ly restored in 1710. The contents Of the church
as it stands today, include ancient copper bell
in which the date 1850 is cast, and several valu
able old religious paintings pierced with ar
holes-grm reminders of the days when the
settlement attacked by hostile Indians
Almost in the shadow of the church stands an
adobe structure which is claimed to be the old
est House in the United States" A considerable
portion of this quaint dwelling remains as it has
been for centuries, and there seems to be

CHILD'S HEAD

ever heard of. My mother had child
who had rash on it's head when 1t
was real young. Doctor called it baby
rash He gave us medicine, but 1t did
no good. In few days the head was
a solid mass, a running sore. 1t was
awful the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got dollar bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent, a box of Cuticura Ointment,
and a bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
it has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had a beau
tiful head of hair. | think the Cuti-
cura Ointment very good for the hair.

hard working humorists could take turn through
Chinatown and come back with a screamingly

like regular people ever since their moldy old
country got out of its grave clothes long enough
to PCT up fight for liberty. They talk straight
to you, and their dialect isn't bit funnier than
is the brogue of the newly arrived Irishman the
broken English of the German immigrant the
lingo of the newcomer from Russia or the patois
of the French Canadian. They look you right in
the eye. They never cid cringe any-memory fails
to recall any John Chnaman who would rub his
hands together to get trade-but they are indie
pendent and self respecting Maybe the
facts are related but there has been little dis
order in the Chinese quarter since that fever
broke out in the Chinese body polite. 1t may be-
of course, due to the fact that other people re-
spect them nowadays. In the old days they broke
into the news only the objects at which wit
was aimed, or as mysterious Orentals who liked
the black smoke and sold chop suey. Nowadays
they are figures in movement of world impor
