CHuD's TRAINING DISCUSSED.
DIR. &. II. Lane Declares Vocational
Training May BE Started Fairly.


Dr. c. H. Lane, of the division of edu-
cation, Department of Agriculture, last
night made an address upon Vocational
Education at meeting of the Washing
ton Home Economics Association, held at
the Public Library. The speaker advo-
Gated a wider range of vocational exer-
else for the child from the time it enters
the kindergarten until it has finished the
high school
1.-THE child is a social and biological
creature, as well an animal that can
learn" said DR.. Lane, therefore, all
his interests, powers, and instincts should
be utilized in the process of education.
1t is believed commonly by educators that
the technical kinds Of vocational work
cannot be introduced before the child ar
rives at the age of sixteen years, but that
the strong and sure foundations on which
all vocational work must rest should be
bogus in early school life"
Preceding DR.. Lanes talk, the regular
business of the association was consid-
cred.
The officers are: President. Miss z. s.
Jacobs; vice president, Mrs. H Patterson;
secretary, Miss Ethel Ridgway, and
treasurer, Mrs. Marion Patterson.

vulgar show and of criminal ex-
penditure; but, mark you, young
man, everything which he has to-
day, whether he uses 1t, or misuses
it, would not have been his unless
he had won his dollars by the saw
ing of his cents.
No one ever made a great dis
covery, or came near to it, who did
not practice the economy of effort,
and sacrifice pleasure and other
things, that he might reach the goal
of accomplishment.
The spending of money for the
sake of spending it represents the
lowest order of character. The saw
ing of money, or of energy, or 9TH
er accumulation, that one may be
prepared to meet disaster and emer-
gency, is the fundamental basis of
every kind of achievement.
The spendthrift, either of money,
or of energy, is despised by his fell
lows, and even by those who are
like him.
The present is yours. The future
the present. Today is the forerun-
ner of tomorrow. What you do
today affects tomorrow more than
what you do tomorrow affects to-
morrow. The economy of the pres
ent stands for security and protec-
ton. without which no one is safe.
Don't be either a miser or
spendthrift. Better be the former
than the latter, for the niser in
jures only himself, while the spend
thrift is a menace to society.
The smile of extravaganza is too
thin 10 wear. 1t is but the telltale
veneer of transparent folly. 1t is
no better than butter without bread
"a surface unbacked by the stuff
that holds.

VkTHETHER you be on the
w threshold of life. or in the
middle of the field of la
Dor, you can't raise a harvest worth
the planting, unless you have sowed
in economy and have cultivated
with discretion.
Extravaganza, either Of time or
of money, or of the expenditure of
energy, has driven more people to
the wall, both young and old, than
has any other sin in the big cata-
logue OF human affairs.
Every one who has succeeded,
either in money-making, or in any
other accomplishment, has done so
by the practice of legitimate econ
omy and by the avoidance of ex-
travagance.
True, many a great scientist or
classic professor appears not TO be
able to save money, or, at any rate,
has not saved money; but he has
economical his time, and has not
been eXtravagant in the practice of
his profession. He has been econ
omical, although, financially he may
seem TO be the reverse of econom-
ical.
There is not business man of
prominence in the whole wide
world who did not, in his forma-
tive age, economic, and even carry
the practice of economy to what
might be considered the extreme of
economical folly. By the saving
of cents, he accumulated dollars;
by taking care of little things, he
was able to possess great things.
Today he may maintain automo-
biles and ocean-going yachts, he
may have several summer palaces
and as many city residences, he may
appear to be the personifcstion of

much upset. as this meant that she could
not possibly reach the appointed place
in time for the scene, but her dismay
