PLANNING FOR 4 MODEL CITY
Cooperative Commemorative tis to 30
Established on Land Near.
Los Angeles, Cal.

Equal division of. the. fruits OF labor
is to be the chief object Of a model
city. where 1t Is claimed the cost OF
living and amusement will be reduced
more than one-third. that Is planned
by a number of German residents who
are now collecting a fund with which
to purchase a tract of land on which
the scheme Is to be launched. The
society promoting the plan Is the Co
operative Fellowship of Los Angeles,
and is the first of its kind to be or
ganiZed on the Pacific coast. The
primary step of the organization as
explained by Secretary Max Guenther
recently, includes the purchase of a
tract of land near Los Angeles. where
the Industrial and residence center is
to be established. Upon this land is
to be built a city composed of work
ers, each of which will have an. equal
opportunity of sharing in all profits
from all of the cooperative places of
business that are to be established.
These cooperative stores will include
every necessity of life, including all
foodstuffs, fuels and clothing, which
is to be sold at a price that covers
only the cost and maintenance of the
establishments. The third step in the
organization OF the city is the estab-
lishment of a bank This Institution
will be opened on the plan OFF, scrip
or money-paying basis, and the scrip,
is to be negotiable at any of the COM
munity stores, and all profits Of the
institution are to pc applied In the.
conduct Of the community stores. All
real estate Is to be held by the cor
pcration during It's existence, regard
less Of the improvements that are
made thereon, and will be placed, In
the hands of the members only on
lease for a stated period. Any mem-
Der becoming dissatisfied with his
holdings may sell the improvements.
but the land Immediately reyerts to
the fellowship In every way the
commission man or middleman is to
be eliminated. Another feature OF the
settlement Is to be a social center In
which not only educational advantages
will be offered, but all forms OF amuse
ment as well.-Municipal Journal.

Schools That Over-Educate.

There is reason to believe that
in some cities of the country the
public schools are too ambitious
in advancing pupils to higher
curses of learning at the ex-
pense of the fundamental prl-
mary branches of reading, writ
ing and arithmetic in which if
they are not well grounded the
higher branches will do them lit
tie good in practical life.
In the report Of the national
employment exchange it's stated
that while there was compare
lively little difficulty in getting.
employment for men as unskilled.
laborers or on farms or in fac
tories, the service was. disap-,
pointing with respect to the
demand for Office help. Out
of 1903. persons sent out by
the exchanges to fill positions of
that kind only. 1,444 were found
satisfactory. The report adds:
Poor '%penmanship of the men
and the women applying for
clerical positions was largely re-
sponsible for the failure of so
many to meet the requirements
The statement recalls COM
plants made time and again
by business men in nearly all
parts of the country, says the
New York World, that the pub
lie schools, in their eagerness to
take up advanced studies of all
kinds, have neglected the simpe
old-fashioned education express
ed in reading, writing and
arithmetic. That any young man
or young woman graduating with
sufficient mental ability to fill
clerical positions should fail be-
cause of bad penmanship or
ignorance of grammar and spell
ing is as much of a reflection up
on public education as the young
people themselves.
That more. than six thousand
young men and women from a
single employment exchange
were rejected in one year in one
city because of bad p%enmanship
is pretty good Evidence that it
is high time the schools were
giving more attention to that
branch of instruction.
Public schools which are main
tanned by the taxpayers to. pre-
pare the young for useful citizen
ship fall short IF their obligation
to the public if they fail to edu-
cate them along practical lines
before advancing them to the
higher branches which more
frequently serve as an ornament
than for practical service in life.
