TRADES CALL
MANY PUPILS
FROM SCHOOLS
High School Graduates 20
Per Cent Less Than Gradu-
ates From the Common
Schools of County.
Williams Collects Data to
Show Necessity of VOca-
tional Training in Wayne
County Schools.

In partial report made up by Coun-
ty Superintendent Williams, he shows
that the number of high school grad
yates in Wayne county is less than 20
per cent of the number of common
school graduates, industry drawing
the remainder.
The report shows that half the
common school graduates enter high
school, the other half leaving to be-
come farmers or to enter trades. OF
the half which start the high school
course, 62 per cent are lost from the
school during the four years, most of
them soon after entering high school.
The drawing power of the city to
children Of school age living within a
short distance of the corporation linn
it's, is shown by the fact that in Wayne
ing school when they graduate from

Industry Governs.
The report taken by townships
oAo"S CloI tlC pei CCuI VI puPllS lcdt-
ing school after the grades, is gradual
ed according to the industrial condi-
tions, the larger the town, the larger
the per cent of pupils leaving school,
AS a contrast of the 72 per cent
leaving after common school gradua-
tion in Wayne township, is New Gar
den townships record of only twenty
per cent leaving.
In the following table the first is
the township, second the township
seat and third the per cent of common
school graduates not attending high
school:
New Garden, Fountain City, 20 per
cent; Jefferson, Hagerstown, SO per
cent; Jackson, Cambridge City, 81 per
cent; Wayne, Richmond, 72 per cent.
Mr.. Williams is compiling the re-
port to file away with other data
which shows the need of vocational
schools to keep the common school
graduates in the schools and to pre-
vent the high school pupils from leav-
ing before they complete the course.
The fact that many high school pu-
pills secure good positions in the sum-
mer months which they refuse to give
up, is large factor in keeping down
the per cent of graduates.

AUTO THIEVES DRAW
HEAVY PRISON TERM

The penalty for the joy ride which
Ernest Hazlett and Edgar Wheaton of
Dayton took last week in the automo-
bile belonging to David Niccum of Ha-
gerstown, is a penitentiary offense of
one to fourteen years, disfranchise-
ment for five years and fine of SIS.
Judge Fox heard the testimony of
the young men today. They denied in
tent to steal, and wanted prosecution
under the joy riders act. This was
refused by the judge when he learned
that they have made long journeys by
"borrowing'' automobiles at stages
along the way and leaving them when
they ran out of gasoline.

Democratic Tariff Ideas.

The Republican campaign in Wayne
county was opened in this city last

Barnard of New Castle.
Lynch Bears No Grudge.
The meeting was opened with an
address by Mr.. Lynch. He Is an elo-

CLUB JOINS
CENTRAL CHARITIES

Members of the Penny club last
night voted to go into the Central
Charity organization. In previous
meetings there had been some op-
position expressed to this movement,
due to a failure on the part of some
of the members to understand the con-
ditions of the proposed affiliation.
These matters were explained last
night to the satisfaction of all men,
bers Of the Penny club, and the or
ganization will now turn its influence

LONDON ADMITS FALL.

LONDON, Oct. 1O.-Belgium's sac
rifice upon the altar of war is COM
plete. The city of Antwerp, the last
3ewel in the crown of the little king
dom, has been taken by the Germans.
IT has suffered the fate of Liege and
Namur.
After reports had been in circulation
for many hours that Antwerp had fall
en-, the war office admitted today that
the city had been evacuated yesterday.
It is understood that some of the in
ner forts are still holding out, but they
can not resist long.
The hope that Antwerp will be re-
taken by the allies is versed by Col
onel Repington, military expert of the
Times. He says there is no reason
why the Belgians should not join the
allies hacking their way north of Ar
ras.
Antwerp has not responded to the
hope reposed in it," he says, mot be-
cause the garrison has not fought well,
but because permanent forts in an
exposed position stand no chance
against modern artillery. If the Ger
mans garrison Antwerp, we will re-
take the city. We shall bring up guns
able to knock the forts about the de-
tenders ears.
1.-The capture Of Antwerp will have
one effect which can not be denied. It
will remove the thorn in the Germans
side and set free the besieging force
for other duties. But Antwerp, even
df converted into a first-class fortress,
will bring little advantage, as the
Scheldt can not be used for naval pur-
poses unless the neutrality of the
Netherlands is violated. The lower
course of the river is in Dutch hands,
and we shall certainly insist on the
neutrality Of the Netherlands not be-
dng violated at our expense"

If it had not been for the Day Nursery, Mrs. Petro would have been compelled to have Eleanor committed to the county home through the pro- bate court and this would have meant the lifelong separation of mother and child, because a mother must legally agree not to seek her child after it's commitment to the county institution.
