BUSINESS AND HE SCHOOLS

That the present movement for
practical education is stimulated from
the industrial rather than from the
educational side is fact both prom
isins and disquieting. according to
owen r. Lovejoy, who discusses "Vo-
cational Guidance and Child Labor" in
a publication of the United States Blu
reau Of Education
The employers have very definite
program" says Mr. Lovejoy. "They
know what they want and are going
after il. Let us not delude ourselves
by thinking they are actuated by
philanthropy 1t is simply good bust
ness. They want crop of fresh.
young labor furnished them every year
that can make fewer mistakes and
more profits.
This is extremely gratifying, i'm one
sense. IL indicates that economic self
interest is attempting to shake off
the double burden of using goods worth
much less than they cost because
poorly and incfIiciently made and of
supporting by charity those paid less
than their work is worth because of
their poverty ineficiency and conse-
quent helplessness But while en-
ployers are awake 10 the need Of ef-
iciency, industry is not. Industry still
beckons to the inefficient, the i'm
mature the unprcpared.
Society is far from having reached
a decision that unskilled labor must
be abolished. The occupations which
outside of agriculture, absorb the out |

business is now saying that if we
had the right kind Of schools all this
would be changcd; that child labor
would become blessing instead of an
abuse for children. We are constantly

Underwater craft have made mark

Thus far no nation has ventured
TO send its submarines out to serve

THE FUGITIVE IDEAL.

AZ some most pure and noble face,
Seen In the thrOngcd and hurrying
street,
Sheds DER the world sudden grace
A flying odor sweet
Then, passing, leaves the cheated
sense
Baked with a phantom excellence.
SO, on our soul the visions rise
or that fair life we never led;
They flash "A splendor past our eyes,
We start, and they are fled;
They pass, and leave us with blank
gaze.
Resigned TO our ignoble days.

vote Cat Republican eXpense) TO per-
nit renewed victory for an unrepre-
sentative Democratic minority.
The New York situation is fairly
typical Of the situation throughout the
country.
The trend OF Thoughtful public opin-
ion is unquestionably toward renewed
Republican majority in Congress. Dis
satisfaction with the record of the last
eighteen months is rampant-particu-
larly as related TO tariff law. If a ma
tional referendum could be taken in
answer to the one QUESTIONABLE you
satisfied with Democracy's legislative
record, and do YOU want these poll
cies TO continue the negative ma
jority would be Overwhelming. Com
prising this negative majority are Re-
publicans and Progressives in the ra-
ito of perhaps six to one.
1t is entirely possible that these
like thinkers on the fundamental
which will be determined
in the fall elections may suffer renew
ed defeat through renewed division.
But there are ample signs To indicate
that sufficient political sanity is to be
the rule, so that majority government
may again exist in the United States
There is a lesson i'm the canvass of
he New York sun to which no one
should be blind.
Democrats cannot prevent the next
house of representatives from becom-
ng Republican.

SHEL TON AND DERBY SUFFER SEVERELY IN WIND AND FLOOD
Special to the Farmer,

Derby, March 2-Watehmen in the employ of the New Haven road null tfpl1ed their vigilance on the trestles over the Housatonic river here today, when an ice jam began to form in the rapidly rising waters While trains were being run over the bridge, late today. there was grave fear that if the ice went out of the river inrits present turbulent condition. the tres- tie would be torn away and traffic seriously Interrupted.
 Thousands of dollars damage were wrought here over night by the wind and flood. The factories along the canal, in Shelton, were imperiIed in the rising water; some were unable to run; others were damaged by the heavy winds.
 The yards in this city Of F. Hallock a dealer in builders supplies, were in undated and hundreds of barrels of cement ruined.
 In the gale of last night, about 100 square feet of the roof of a building in the yard of the Derby gas plant was torn away. A fire wall 40 feet was blown down for nearly 60 feet, and in it's collapse part of an adjoining g building was badly damaged. Part of the roof of the shelton Rubber RecIaining Co. was blown off,
 The plants of the shelton Star Pen Go, the Derby Silver Cutlery Co. and the international Silver Go. were badly crippled. Water power from the can al is an important element in the op- eration of the plants. It was feared this afternoon that others in the mile of factories along the canal would be unable to operate if conditions grew worse.
 All passenger trains scheduled to use the trestle over the river were doing so, but there were six men stationed on the trestle to watch for signs of danger.
 Housatonic avenue was mostly under water this afternoon. The Derby Country club was considerably dam aged. Cellars along the water front were flooded beyond all expectation. Old timers say the water is higher than it has been since the big dam burst more than two decades ago. Farmer Want Ads One Cent a Word
