MANUFACTURERS AND
DEALERS HAND IN HAND


In years gone by it used to
be that manufacturer's re-
sponsibility for the things he
made stopped with the sale Of
them. But that is no longer
SO. we are living in an age of
progressive and efficient bust
ness building.
Manufacturers no longer con-
slider the signing Of an order
from a reputable retailer as the
climax Of their interest and ef-
fort. And, what is more, the
progressive merchants do not
feel that they are good busl-
ness men unless they have
agreed upon and put into prac-
tice some arrangement where
BY both the manufacturer and
the retailer unite in the e1-
dorsement Of the article in
question.
BY this kind Of arrangement
retailers offer their patrons
two-fold evidence Of quality and
reliability double responsi-
bility that spells afety to the
prudent buyer
and the manufacturer who
wants to help his dealers, uses
local newspapers to bring Gus
toners to the retaail counter to
ask for lbs product.
Dealers and manufacturers

VOCATIONAL EDUCATION
 PROVES SUCCESSFUL AT UNIVERSITY OF PENNA,

The experiments of the vocational training school for boys. given under the direction of students of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania during the past year, are considered very suc- cessfu1 achording to report which has just been published for the Public Education Association. For the pur- pose of this report four fields were selected by the author for the early treatment of vocational guidance. For each of the four divisions there was organized a, club of boys, and in charge of the club was placed Uni- versity student whose studies dealt with the particular field of work. The Civil Engineering Club was headed by L. A. Cross, of the Civil Engineering Department of the University; the Electrical Club was led by H. N. Wood, of the Electrical Engineering Department; the Building Trades Club was under direction Of George Lewis, of the Architectural Department, and c. R. Meyer, of the business manage ment department of the University, was given the guidance of the boys who joined the Business Club. All the boys who joined the four clubs were between the ages of twelve and six teen years. The first task assigned to their leaders was the choice of club members it being particularly desired  bilities and deliberate before announc- ing his choice. Next year an enlarge ment Of the idea is expected. Meet ings with the parents of the boys will be planned, and there will be featured consideration the problem that faces the guardians of the boys at school. In all cases it will be impressed upon the parents that although a boy, after reaching a certain stage of usefulness in a trade, might be able to make a reasonable wage without further edu- cation, it is better in the end that each boy shall get solid educational groundwork before entering his life work Employers and business man agers have come forth in many cases with offers of help for the clubs, and 1t will be the plan of the. Public Edu- cation Association to have the pa rents of boys in the public schools furnish the needed impetus to the vo- cational studies.
 The University campus is again the scene of student activity. the tenth annual Summer School being now in session, with an enrolment considera- bly, larger than in former years. This year four of the dornitories are oc- cl1pied by the summer students, the Graduate and Penn houses being used by the women, and the Morris and Bodine houses by the men.

AUNT HELD FOR
 DEATH OF NIECE
Coroner Finds Mrs. Mona han Gave Poison to IT, Year Old Girl-Also Men tions Suspicious Death of Second Husband.

New Haven, July 25-Mrs Annie F. Monahan is held criminaIly responsible for the death of r year old Jennie McNamee, in finding just filed by Coroner Eli Mix, who finds that the 1McNamee girl, Mrs. Monahan's niece, was slowly poisoned to death by the administering Of small doses of ar senic and that Mrs Monahan was the only one who attended her during the months illness that preceded her death and holds that she was the only one who had the opportunity to give the girl poison. The coroner calls atten- t1on to the suspicious death of Mrs. Monahan's second. husband and it is believed that the body will be exhum- ed before the case is put to trial.
 The body of Mrs. Monahan's second husband, 8 brother of her present husband, was buried over two years, ago, but it is believed that evidence may still be found Of arsenic if any was in the body at the time of his death. The arsenic would collect in small Jumps at the bottom of the cof- fin.
 The fact that the coroner makes the suspicious death of the second husband a link in the chain of cir cumstantial evidence prepared against Mrs. Monahan is the reason for the belief that the body will be exhum- ed. The finding of the coroner is based altogether on circumstantial evidence. which was obtained after three weeks hard work by him and Detective Bennett w. Dorman.
 The report of the autopsy perform ed on the body of the McNamee girl by Prof. Frank P. Underhi1l of Yale university and Medical Examiner M. M. Scarborough showed the presence of pure white arsenic, not rough on rats," as at first suggested. Arsenic was found all through the girls body. even in the brain. She had evidently been given arsenic in small quantities, so that 1t had an opportunity to c1r- culate all through the system. The way in which it was given may be realized by the fact that while the girl became i'll ab. 1t the. first of F'eb- ruary, she was able to work until the middle of that month and didn't die until March T.
 A warrant charging Mrs. Monahan with murder will be issued some time today by Assistant City Attorney Will liam A. Bree and she will be taken before the city court for hearing.7 The case first attracted the attention of the coroner when Mrs. Monahan at tempted to collect an insurance policy soon after the girls death.

INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION
 IN COLUMBUS, GA.

A school specially designed for chil- dren of mill operatives is a feature of the industrial education system of Co., l1Tnbus, Ga.,- according to a. bulletin Just issued by the United States Bu- reau of Education. The school was established with the idea of encourag- ing attendance among the large class of mill children in Columbus many of whom were not going to school at all. A handsome colonial residence in the mill district was purchased by the Board of Education for the new school. Special pains were taken to adapt the course of study and the hours in the school to the conditions of mt11work. School hours are from 8 to Il, and from to 3:3O. The long in termission is to enable the children to take lunches to parents, brothers, sis ters, and others who may be employed in the mills This is a regular daily task with most of the children, some of them earning several dollars a week as tedinner-toters.'' The school itself is frequently termed by the children ''the dinner-toters school.''
 Although the aim of the school is industrial, the three R's'' are insisted upon even more severely than in the regular schools, because of the limited time the children have for schooling: Although the prescribed course con templates seven years," says the bull 1etin, flew of the pupils continue af- ter the fifth and sixth year, so strong is the call of the mills Not more than one per cent. finish this school and pursue their studies further
 The three morning hours and, the first hour of the afternoon are devoted to academic studies, while the last hour and a half of the day is given to practical work All the boys are re- quired to take the elementary course in woodwork and gardening. The girls take basketry, sewing, cooking, poultry raising, and gardening. The school is in session all the year round and pupils are promoted quarterly. The teachers live at the school and keep .'open house" to the people of the community at all times
 This school is only a part of a care fully developed system of industrial training in Columbus that is intended to reach the needs of all parts Of the population. Particularly significant to many communities is the Industrial High School, the aims and scope of which are also described in the Blu reau's< bulletin.

NO NEGLIGENCE AT STAMFORD
(Hartford Times)

The complete exoneration by Coro- ner J. J. Phe1an, of Bridgeport, of the New York, New Haven and Hart ford Railroad company from the charge that it was guilty of criminal negligence in the wreck of the eX- press train at Stamford on June 12 will be a source of great satisfaction to the stockholders of the company, and to it's officers who have suffered so much harsh criticism on account of that IamentabIe accident.
 Coroner Phelan's findings, which are published to-day, furnish an anal ysis of the evidence relating to the Stamford disaster which is clear and convincing, and the tone of his re- port is eminent1y judicial and fair. He finds there is no Justification for the charge that there was negligence on part of the company in placing En- gineer Doherty in charge of loeomo- tive No. 1, 1888 on the colliding train, and gives to the unfortunate engineer a certificate to his character and fit ness for his work which is, under the circumstances, highly complimentary. T must, on the evidence before me, conclude he inadvertently but scru- pu1ous1y, erred in misjudging the dis tance reqired in which to stop the train" says the coroner. "As to Doher- tvs competency he adds, there can be no serious question:
 The coroner's discussion of the questions of railway operation which were involved in the crash at Stann- ford show a complete comprehension of all the conditions. No railway ex- pert, as it seems to us, could have handled the subject with more thor oughness and candor. His report is instructive and illuminating and model in every respect. It deserves to be carefully read.
 Newspap per editors and other per sons who have indulged so generausly in attacks on the New Haven road and it's president for not transporting pas sengers in steel cars will be surprised at the citation by the coroner of the figures, showing that, in addition to the 31 steel passenger cars already in use by the com mpany, it has contracted for 354 more cars of the same type, and also that 61 Pullman cars which are of all steel construction are now in use on the New Haven lines.
 Of how many other great American railway companies can so much pro vision for the safety of the travelling public be adduced?
