Trained Men Great Need
Of Business WOrldTO=day

Germany and other European
countries are far ahead of the United
States in the matter of commercial
education. This point was brought
out in a speech before the annual
convention of the National Associa-
ton Of Credit Men at Cincinnati
The annual losses by reason Of
failures IL the United States amount
now TO some $500, 100000" said Mt
Gaehr, "or over 81 per capita To
put IT concreately. the national an
nual loss from bad debts equals one
half the estimate cost of the Panama
Canal.
Professor Munsterberg Of Harvard
University observes that a great diff
fculty Of our educa tional system has
been that it does not teach a man
to find himself, and when he learns
his strong and his weak points. his
real inclinations TOWARD and qualif-
cations for a pursuit in life, it IS
usually too late
We find the highway of commerce
and life marked with sad monuments
of men crushed under the wheels Of
progress who would have made
success in life had they had the
proper direction and counsel and had

they been taught to fashion their
thoughts to fruitful issues. men who
could and should have been helped
TO usefulness.
"A further difficulty is that the
vocational demands are not suffl-
GENTLY fixed and brought to the at
tention Of the younger generations.
They know comparatively little Of
the inner labors, the inner values,
and inner difficulties of various pro-
fessiOns and callings.
Then, too. in many cases trivial
chance influences decide the choice
of a vocation. YOUNG men often
drop into a place, rather than DELHI
erately choosing business as a life
vocation.
The need of better trained men
especially commercially. made Itself
felt several years ago, and as a re-
suit a number of universities and col
leges of high standing organized
schools of commerce, Harvard Uni
yersity ranking its School of Bust
ness Administration as one of the
graduate schools. Several cities have
established high schools OF commerce,
Yet the schoolmaster and the bust
ness man are still too far apart.

"The Rainbow Proves Fine
Vehicle for Henry Miller

Since the days Of The Great Di-
Nide," Henry Miller has had no play
the equal Of 1.-THE Rainbow" in which
he was seen at the Metropolitan last
night. A. E. Thomas, the author. pro-
vided him with a greater play than
when he gave Her Husbands Wife,"
Mr.. Miller's, earlier success.
To many. Mr.. Thomas drama may
not appeal. Its theme may be con-
ventionai and 1t may lack much in
advancement in the development Of
native American drama.
1t Is constructed with careful atten-
ton to detail. and its characters are
drawn with a. firm hand. Thomas
leaves nothing to the Imagination. He
pictures a sentimental wanton hui
manly. and he shows the strength of
character and the father love behind
the shallOwness and sordid nature OF
Neil Summer. Mr.. Miller's role.
The Rainbow visualizes a story of
heart interest-that of a divorced
mar and woman brought together by
mutual love for their daughter. Until
the play opened. the daughter. a girl
OF sixteen years. had not been seen
by the father since she was a little
child. Her home coming provides the
motif Of the play. How the simplici-
ty and pureness of her life brings the
father to a realization Of his weak
ness and how he. STRIVES to protect her
against the evils at work about her
are told with convincing power.
Mr.. Miller brings to the role of Neil
Sumner admirable refinement, poise
and dignity. The emotional poignan-
cy Of the scene which parts father and
daughter Is shown with wonderful
feeling and reserve His scenes with
Cynthia. his daughter, are exquisltely
done. h boyishness, the JOY. the sor-
row being finely drawn.
Miss Ruth C~hattcrton, a young
woman comparatively new to the
stage. plays the daughter with charm
ing simplicity. Miss Chatterton Ia a
si%nEularly sympathetic actress. and
charm as a portrayer Of girlish char
acters lies In her. sheer. simplicity.
