SHOULD AID CHILDREN
IN LIFE VOCAT|ONS
Tendency of Public School
Is to Be Feeder for College,
Says Business Man.

The tendency TO make the public
schools merely feeders for the univer-
sites threatens the efficiency of all
public school work aud a greater eff
fort should be made TO aid the children
in finding their vocations. Such was
the advice given TO the members OF
the science, manual training and art
and secondary education departments
at the joint meeting yesterday after
noon in paper prepared by l., D,
Anderson, periutendent of the United
States Smelling. Refining & Mining
company of Midvale. Mr.. Anderson
was unable to be present, but his pa
per was read by Il, Il. Scribner. su-
perintendent of schools at Ishpeming,
Mich
Other addresses were "What the
Schools Can Do TO Meet the Demands
of Both Industry and General Science, -
Ernest O Holland superintendent Of
schools, Louisville; "How Far Should
Both Academic and Manual Art
Courses in the High Schools Be Bent
to Meet the Needs Of Specific Voca-
tions7' by William B. Owen, principal
of the Chicago Normal school, and the
report Of the committee on improve
ment of physics teaching by j. A. Ran
dali Of Pratt institute, Brooklyn, N. Y.
Mr.. Anderson S paper in part was as
follows:
To say what the industries re-
auire Of the public schools would
he TO largely catalogue their pres
ent magnificent achievements. In
the recognition of these accomplish
ments, therefore, the effort will be
to mention lust few things on
which emphasis seems desirable.
Courses One-Sided.
In paper by L, J. Trinder of
Connecticut given before the Amer.
lean Society of Mechanical Eugin-
GERS on industrial Education, -
there is voiced feeling which has
become quite strong among bust
ness men. and that is that courses
of study are being laid out by in
structors who see only one side of
the educational problem and with
one result, that Of formulating
common course of study for each
grade or room and requiring both
boys and girls to carry on the
work, regardless OF the needs Of
the individual for a more specific
training in order to earn n living
Mr., Trinder mentions such arithmc-
TIC questions as these:
A. If in period of ~ DAYS
3S Is per cent are cloudy, and If
it rains 16 % per cent, how many
days are rainy?
B. John is Is years old and his
sister is 10, His age is how many
hundredths more than hers7 Hers
is how many hundrcdths less than
his?
Can set Of problems more use
less than. these be conceived? Is it
any wonder that children rebel
against such nonseusical abstract
work or thot they are determined
TO leave school as early as possi-
bic and take their chances at some
kind of work. I am told that over
80 per cent of school children at
tend school in towns Of 1000 and
less population. Under such cir
cumstances, district vocational
training for the greater number of
school children is somewhat diff.
cult.

the greatest possible cooperation in
every quarter.
The prime consideration in per-
1ecting the personnel Of the postal
service shall be to recognize efficiency
and to eliminate p%artisanship. In the
sftion Of charges the government
must he guided not by the considera-
ton Of profit but by the needs Of the
people. who have a right to expect
the most efficient postal service adj
mtnistered in the most economical
manner possible, and made available
to them at rates involving, for the
service as a whole, no element Of tax
alton. The service should be extend
ed, with due regard for the exigencies
of public revenue, wherever its bene-
tss. commercial and social. warrant
ane expenditure necessary, irrespec-
tive Of whether or not the. revenue
from each extension will defray the
cost thereof"
Notable recommendations to con.
8ress Tor the enactment OF additional
legislation to facilitate and extend the
more important. are the following:
THAT the postomce department he

selection of the sites for public build
ings to be used wholly for p~ostofice

lection Of. sites for federal buildings

ITO amend existing law in order to
allow $4,000 indemnity for accidental
death OF any officer or employees of
the postal service or for death within
one year as the result Of injuries sus-
tanned in the service in the line of
duty. Provision is also made for leave
with full pay for q period Of one. year
for injuries sustained in the line Of
ceedtng ono year additional. This
is an important recommendation for
the reason that the existing law ap-
plies only to railway postal clerks. sea
post clerks and postofice Inspectors.
Tho elimination Of surety bonds
now required of postal officers and
employees and the substitution of a
guaranty fund established and main
tanned by assessments prescribed by
the postmaster general.
ITO authorize the postmaster gen.
eral to contract for experimental aer-
ial mail service. for which an estimate
Of $4,000 has been submitted.
ITO permit the postmaster general
to transfer clerks from postofices Of
the first and second classes to the rail-
way mail service at salaries higher
than the entrance salary in the rail-
way mail service. The purpose of this
legislation il to bring about an inter-
changeable personnel between the
railway mail service and the postof-
flee service. with a view to a more
effective utilization Of the entire force
Of postal employees and to afford bet
ter opportunities for the advancement
Of worthy and efficient clerks in post
offices.
ITO extend the provisions Of exist
ing law SO as to provide substitutes
for railway postal clerks who are alb
sent with pay on account Of sickness,

stitute to be borne by the government
instead OF the clerk.
ITO authorize the issuance Of postal

limitation on the amount of postal
savings deposits with the proviso that
interest shall not be paid on more
than $1,000. This will permit postal
savings depositors to deposit any
amount"
The report indicates that the
growth of the parcel post business has
been phenomenal. 1.-THE experience
gained in the operation Of the system
under the revised rates and weights
has shown that a further reduction
Of rates and increase of weight limit
is justified" says the postmaster gen.
eral.
ut is believed that the parcel post
should be made eventually to serve
the people as fully and completely
as possible without interfering with
the efficient conduct Of the postal SER
vice. and that changes in the regula-
tions that will have the effect Of in
creasing the volume of parcel post
mail should be made gradually and
only after experience and ~investiga-
ton have shown that they may be put
into effect without loss or detriment
to the service"
In connection with what is referred
to as the ''prodigious growth" of the
parcel post service, particularly, MIR.
Burleson discusses additional compen-
sation to the railroads for carrying
the mails. He says that data is be-
ing secured by the department which
will enable him to lay before congress
at a later date his conclusions a

compensation for all services which
the railroads have rendered or will

1t is the announced purpose Of Mi.
Burleson not to encourage the exten.
sion of free delivery of mails in WI.
lagos. because Of the inferiority Of the
service and the tmpossibility to secure
economical administration Of it. It
is his intention, therefore, wherever
practicable to utilize the services OF
rural carriers for the delivery of mails
in small towns.
On that phase Of the service the re.
port says
"As rural routes emanate from
practically all Of the places where this
village delivery service would be de.
sired. he carriers should be used to
make such deliveries u may be desir.
ableable and feasible to the residents
Of the villages. The compensation Of
rural carriers. however, at this time
is based on the length Of their routes
and to make them available for the
service indicated their salaries should
be based upon an eight-hour day.
With this change these carriers could
be used not only to supplement the
general delivery service as indicated,
u in many instances in the delivery
Of parcel post matter al well, thus
%obviating the necessity for additional
horse hire for the delivery Of the larg-
er packages. The compensation Of
rural carriers should therefore be
changed from a mileage to an eight
hour basis. and these carriers should
be permitted to deliver mail regard
less Of the distance from the postof-
flee Or the corporate limits of the city
town..
In conclusion Postmaster General
Burleson points out that the posto.iice
department is essentially a business
institution, which touches every home
in the land. A high standard Of eff
ficiency is demanded Of all postal em-
ployes and he says hat he will re-
quire from every postmaster his In
dividual attention to the affairs of his
Office and that this requirement will
be rigidly enforced.
"For this reason" he says. 'the
merit system should be adhered to
in the postofiice department above
others in order TO secure the very
highest standard of efficiency in the
conduct of Its affairs.
