PLAN A CHANGE OF
THE SCHOOL HOURS
Authorities Believe More
Time Is Needed for Vo-
cational Training.

Principal Heironimus and Prof. a. B.
Roy of the Garfield building appeared
before the Commercial club commit
tee on education last evening and ask
ed that body to ascertain sentiment on
proposal to change the hours of
school in that building.
The school authorities believe that
the vocational training offered at the
building would secure greater popu-
larity among the pupils if more time
COULD be given to this subject.
TO secure the additional time, they
propose to begin the morning session
at an early hour, limit the noon hour,
and ismiss school at or 2:3O o'clock
in the afternoon.
schedule boys and girls wishing to
take vocational work will be given
enough time to do so. The proposed
change in the schedule will not dimin-
ish the hours devoted to schooling in
the regular branches.
The impression has been gained by
the school authorities that many pu-
pills do not take industrial work be-
cause they do not find time for it in
the regular schedule. 1t is said that
many boys who intend to go into the
shops would gladly avail themselves
of the opportunity of securing training
at the Garfield building, but are pre-
vented by their desire to take the
regular educational branches.

A QUEER THING.

What a queer thing it is that people
are never satisfied. l heard a woman
complaining the other day of the con-
dition of certain affairs and when l
mentioned reform along these lines
she was perfectly Mortified One should
not consider the man at the head of
the reform so much as what he gains.
Perhaps after he has accomplished his
purpose she would say "Well he did
succeed after all" Yes and we might
add with the odds against him. In
the beginning of Yard Cleaning Day.
there were number of women who
thought it foolish to attempt such a
thing but it has become an annual
event and other cities have followed in
the footsteps of Richmond and now
have day set aside for the same pur-
pose.
Women are harder to deal with than
men. The majority of them are narrow
minded. They will plod along at the
same tasks day in and day out without
murmuring. In the end they make bet
ter machines than men. If their hus-
bands, fathers and brothers believed
certain way then they of course must
needs follow in the same footsteps.
It's funny world and it takes lots of
people with different minds and ideas
to make it funny old world.
