president of Earlham Col
lege Speaks on Vocational
Training and Attitude of
College Toward 1t.
TREMENDOUS DRIFT
TOWARDS THE CITY
Faced with the Possibility of
a Famine College Stu
dents. Must Take Up New
Line of. Teaching.

This morning in chapel Pres. Kelly
spoke on Vocational training and the
attitude of the college toward it. He
showed the fallacy of calling these
middle western states agricultural
states since more than half of the pop
ulation of Indiana, for instance, live
in cities or large towns, Last year
1888, 100000 was made by farmers and
$597, 100000 by the manufacturers of
the state.
"The scientists and economists of
our land are trying to check the tre-
mendous drift toward the cities. With
the large number of foreign emmi
grants coming almost entirely to the
cities of this country, we are faced
with the possibility of famine that
Is not so mythical as one might think.
The great waste of our soil is also con-
tributing to this danger. A foreign wri-
ter has recently called our methods of
farming species of mining. In Ger
many the average number Of bushels
of wheat per acre is 80, in this coun-
try it is but %, and ours is practically
virgin soil,' President Kelly said.
:. He said the growing distrust of the
methods of education in America is
shown by the magazine and newspa-
per attacks on school and college
This, with vocational training as its
remedy, was the principal topic of dis
cussion at the meeting of thu Indiana
teachers association at Indianapolis a
short time ago. A commission appoint
ed by Governor Marshall two years
ago has made it's report and a bill is
to be presented to the Legislature at
it's coming session. This bill has the
backing of banks, insurance compan-
les, boards of trade, labor unions, edu-
cational societies and boards through
out the state.
Conservative Elements.
There are two conservative ele-
ments that will make this change
safe, should it come, Prof. Kelly said,
and not apt to interfere with present
schools. One is that the new schools
will be under the state board of educa-
ton, which is a conservative body,
and the other is that there are very
few teachers in Indiana who are now
qualified to teach vocations. The H.
900 teachers in this state will not be
replaced, but new teachers will have
to be trained for the new work This
will make the change gradual.
College students are the only ones
who will be able to take up this new
line of teaching since only we'll
trained mind can guide an expert and
trained hand, he said
Earlham college started it's winter
term yesterday with few missing from
its ranks and several students added
to its roll. Instruction began in all de-
partments, Prof. NJ. S. Margle taking
the classes of DR.. David Dennis, who
will spend the winter in Los Angeles.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-Despite the
stories to the effect that William
Rockefeller sailed from Jekyl Island
last Tuesday for Bermuda, Sergeant
Alarms Riddell of the house of repre-
sentatives today allowed no relaxa-
ton of the vigil over the various
Rockefeller residences that have been
under the eyes of scores of his men
for nearly a week past and declared
he believed the millionaire oil mag
nate was in his Fifth avenue home.
The sergeant-at-arms received or
ders from the Pujo committee investi-
eating the money trust not to return
to Washington without the witness
and the official is emphatic in saying
he will get his man. When asked to-
day if he had heard anything from
Washington about a warrant for Rock
efeller he replied:
Il cannot tell you anything about
that" Although giving little credence
to the report that Mr.. Rockefeller had
sailed for Bermuda, Mr. RiddeIl di-
rected two process servers to go to
Jekyl Island and take up the chase
from there Also a large number in
vaded the financial district in an eff.
fort to get trace of Mr. Rockefeller

ees about the state in the action the
legislature takes on the measure
which will be placed before them on
this proposition. Many of the wives
of the present inmates of the county
Jail applied for assistance at the office
of the trustee today.
IN the relief report of Mr. Haworth
for the year of 1912, there is a differ
ence of but $34.16 between the re-
port of 1912 and 1911. More money
was expended in 1911 than 1912. The
sum of s3.945.01 was expended by the
county in 1911 and s3,910S5 in 1912
Besides coal and groceries, the un-
dertakers were paid a large percent
of the county's poor fund. The cases
of sickness among the poor are being
provided for by the trustee in all cas-
es. No one has ever been refused
medical assistance from the office.
But one appeal was refused today for
coal. The applicant had plenty of mo-
ney and was attempting TO take ad-
vantage of the county tax payers, Mr.
Haworth declared.
