The examination of Shanks was

Well. Shanks went over to the Penn

CARPENTERS PRAISE
NIGHT SCHOOL WORK
Class of Tradesmen Study
Building of Circular Stair
ways With Architect.

The class in carpentering has been
one of the most successful classes at
the night school this term which
closed last night. Coming under the
head of advanced vocational work,
this class has not been for the instruc-
ton of those who wish to learn to be
carpenters. but has only been open to
carpenters who wish to learn more
about their trade.
Under the instruction of Mr. Kauf-
man, an expert architect and former
carpenter the men have taken up
many of the more intricate problems
that confront the builder.
A great part of the term has been
spent in the study of stairway and
circular building. which is considered
one of the hardest problems for a
carpenter For several years Mr.
Kaufman was an expert stair builder
before he took up architectural work
and the men in the class say that they
have been greatly benefited by his in
struction.
Attends Every Class
81 have not missed night since the
class started said John Burdsall
considered one of the best carpenters
in the city. Il have found out that
there were lots of things I did not
know about the carpentry business
The study of stairway building has
been especially beneficial to me, and
will help me in my regular work.
AS an exercise for the next term
the class expects to build a model cir
cular stairway, putting into practice
the study of the last term.
Two other very successful classes
for men, both of which were we'll at
tended, were automobile mechanics
and electric work
Three classes for women, dressmak-
ing, millinery and cooking, were prof
table to the number of women who
attended them.
