meaningless Jobs to which they are
assigned. That many drift into cas-
ual and thence into permanent idle
ness is to be expected. The only
wonder is that any ultimately rise to
positions OF efficiency and responsible
ity.
Our schools are not fair to them
selves in assuming that they or the
child are wholly at fault. If the
schools need need a better curricu-
lum. SO does the industrial establish
ment. II the child needs a more
definite and purposeful mind, much
more does industry. One of the most
vital services vocational guidance can
render is to analyze our industries
and train our youth to distinguish be-
tween vocation and a job. 1t is fu-
tile to give special training to child
for the purpose OF fastening him to

Newspapers in War Times.

The newspapers Of Europe, in the
event of war. will soon be reduced to
the.size of the flood editions Of Park
ersburg according to dispatches. The
New York Sun correspondent in Lon
don relates a curious interview with
the editor Of Temps, Paris. He asked
the editor what arrangements had
been made by continental newspapers
toward covering" the war, and wheth-
er there would be association and CO.
operation Of the great continental
dailies. He was astounded at the re-
ply. The journalist told him that in
sixty days after the opening of hostil-
tiles II the war became general the
papers would not only not be endeav-
oring to get detailed news, but would
be without facility for publishing It.
He said the papers would be reduced
to single sheet, the size of small
hand bill, on which the mere an
nouncement Of an event OF extraordi-
nary Importance could be bulletined.
AS for the publication OF standard
newspaper, he said that would be i'm

free trade and that Of protection and
security OF home interests.
The free trader holds to the belief
that nation should work out only
those resources in which 1t has an
advantage. thus giving the world the
benefit of the cheapened cost of
production. He believes that the
gain from free international trade
would be a clear practical. gain
to his country IN the long run. The
theory can be brought to perfection.
however. only by the establishment
OF free and unlimited trade rela-
tions among all nations, a goal
scarcely approachable in view of the
conditions that have brought about
the present general strife in Europe.
Under such working theory the
United States would ultimately be-
come an agricultural nation.
The protectionist believes that his
country should stand economically
independent of all other nations and
that 1t should not be compelled to
rely upon them for certain prod
ucts for which they are more
especially adapted and which they
can produce more economically. He
seeks to bring this about by creating
and upbuilding new Industries in his
own nation by means of protective
tariff, which prevents other nations
from supplying their products and
which enables the home manufac-
turer to produce them. This results
in q diversity of industries and the
supply Of all needs from home
markets. There is a moral and a
political gain in such circumstances
that far outweigh, in the opinion OF
the protectionist. the one-sided prac-
tical gain sought by the free trader.
The soundness of the theory OF
protection can be no more strikingly
demonstrated in this country than
by the present chaotic condition OF
affairs in Europe, when practically
all the nations of the continent are
clashing in warfare, exports have
been forbidden, maritime trade has
been destroyed and international
commerce practically stopped. In
such crisis, the nation that is suf-
fcient unto itself can supply It's own
food stuffs. It's own clothing, its own
railroad supplies. It's own building
materials and all the other things
its people need, while in the event 1t
engages in war, it can even build its
own war vessels and manufacture its
own rifles and ammunition.
Had not the people Of the United
States obtained, during long period,
Jail the advantages of a national pro-
tective policy, it would now probably
be dependent upon some foreign
country for some Of its necessaries
and dire would be the consequences
thereof. 1t is true that such ma
tional policy has not obtained the
last year or SO. yet the momentum
gained under the protective policy is
too great to occasion any serious
alarm in the present crisis. as the
country still has its diversified in
dustries for the most part and can
we'll take care of itself. But, the
lesson the European war furnishes is
impressive so far as it relates to the
country's future.

Business and the Schools.

That the present movement for
practical education is stimulated
from the industrial rather than from
the educational side is fact both
promising and disquieting, according
to Owen R. Lovejoy. who discusses
Vocational Guidance and Child La
Dor" in publication of the United
States Bureau of Education.
The employers have a very
definite program" says Mr.. Lovejoy.
They know what they want and
are going after it. Let us not delude
ourselves by thinking they are actu-
ated by philanthropy. 1t is simply
Il good BUSINESS. They want crop OF
fresh, young labor furnished them
every year that can make fewer
mistakes and more profits.
This is extremely gratifying. in
one sense. 1t indicates that economic
lself-interest is attempting to shake
off the double burden society has
long borne-the burden of using
goods worth much less than they
cost because poorly and inefticiently
made, and of supporting by charity
those paid less than their work Is
worth because of their poverty, in
efficiency and consequent helpless
ness. But while employers are awake
to the need of efficiency, industry is
not. Industry still beckons to the
inefficient, the immature, the unpre-
pared.
Society is far from having
reached decision that unskilled Ia

absorb the output of our schools are
barren of any element to make them
iof present interest to the child or to
offer any hope for the future. A vo-
cational survey in New York City ex-
hibits in one group 101 boys between
Ia and 16 years of age with an analy-
sis OF work they are doing. For
only five of them is there any oppor-
tunity to advance or improve: ninety
six are in dead-end occupations.
Business is now saying that IL we
had the right kind of schools all this
would be changed; that child labor
would become blessing instead OF
an abuse for children. We are con-
stantly told that. If the schools had
the right kind of curriculum and
gave the right kind of training, every
child would have his natural capacity
developed, and we should speedily
put an end to the army of Industrial
insists.
In accepting this challenge of the
business world our educators have
assumed an unwarranted responsible
Eity for the condition that exists. A
study Of the annual contribution OF
our city schools to the business inter-
ests of the community will show that
n considerable percentage is thrown
into the discard within the first
month: that another large percentage

The European War.

The war in Europe has spread as
was anticipated for several days. 1t
Is scarcely necessary to Dhilosophize
about it, At this time it looks like it
will be the bloodiest war the world has
ever known. We find that the major
ity Of people here do not know what
it is all about This is easily stated.
In the first place, it may be said
that the prime cause of the general
contest that is now on, comes large
ly from the hatred, suspicion, jeal-
ousy and watchfulness OF the Great
Powers of Europe of each other.
When nations are in this condition,
or individuals either, it does not
take much to start trouble. A very
small match can cause the burning
Of a great pile OF fuel, when the fuel
is in condition for a conflagration.
