GIRLS AND THE SCHOOLS

is denied by the trainers of a bulletin just issued
by the United States Bureau OF Education, that
most children who leave school they have
pleted their Of study do because their
ents need the money and compel them to go work.
The bulletin is based upon trade and labor conditions
discovered among girls in Worcester. Mass, where
is proposed establish trade school for girls. The
Investigators have discovered that from one-half to
threequarters Of the girls at work in could
have had further schooling they had wanted it
their parents had insisted upon IT,
Investigation Of individual cases OF girls there who
quit school revealed great diversity there
for that far from satisfactory. The Investigators
reached the decision that conditions found empha-
size the necessity Of having in the schools special
training Of practical sort for girls between 10 and
Is years old. Most Of the children left
they did like school work and became uneducaed
and practically hopeless drudges in the mills.
Too many girls fail to realize that, socially and
economically, OF the worst handicaps an American
girl have is poor education. In a land such as
is expected of her than is looked from girls v-
ing in countries which are less liberal in an educa-
tonal way. We think it may be said that in this
try comparatively few girls under the age OF 10 years
quit school without parental consent Such parents
in too many instances, fail to realize until too late
the great injury they their children by per-
mitting them to leave school and go to work. We

that the bottom had dropped Of the Bull

and the National Progressive ticket from the official
ballot for the city election. That announcement was
wrong. The plan never had any bottom It merely
was hmsy bubble, blown to large proportions by
small group Of political Missionaries and maicontents.
10 burst beneath the strain. bubbles invariably do
and the Bull Moose cabal is the laughing stock
of the community.
Horace Greeley Eastburn, chief Of this little group
OF political bubble-blowerE, seeks TO convey to
the public the impression that the ballot bubble burst
because the Bull Moose cabal did not have the sfO6
needed to start the legal proceedings the Demo-
Gratis had facd-to supply the deficiency in the funds
That explanation only to put him and his as
sociates a more ridiculous light
The real the sy-season Bull Moose bub-
bic burst was that there never was time when
they could have gone into court and upset either the
Republican emblem the National Progressive ticket.
No except themselves looked upon their bubble
blowing with anything except amusement; nor was
anyone except themselves surprised when the bubble
