SHEDS HIS BOOTS
 ON LAKE BOTTOM.
om the New York World.

From the New York World
 Alpena, Mich.-Gustave Trojahn, aged g. was drowned in Thunder bay. Sunday, and Truman Goddard. aged 35, his com panion. escaped after a desperate ef- fort.
 The men left for fishing trip to Lake Huron, just outside the bay. Their boat was leaky and water entered as they rowed out, but they wore high-topped boots and paid little attention to this. There were eight inches of water in the bottom of the boat when one of the men leaned to one side and the craft capsized
 The men clung to the boat for some time, but no help came, and finally Tro- jahn's fingers let go and he sank.
 Goddard started to swim to shore. His heavy boots, now filled with water. made this almost impossible. and, holding his breath he allowed himself to sink. Reaching bottom he pulled off his boots. Though nearly exhausted he, by su- perhuman effort reached point where he could walk on the bottom. He col lasped when he reached Grass Island, loo yards from where the accident occurred.
 Goddard was sighted from the main- land and he was brought from the island soon after, but he is prostrated.

it would bring others whose donors are naturally waiting for the state to make the initial move. MT. Brown has already given 100 acres of land on beautiful ele- vation in Ragland. Money gifts range from sum to be given by q world-fa- nous fund down to some bills buried in fruit jar under Alabama soil and prom ised to the school. The institution has the support of dozens of educators and business men. Dr. Denny, president of the University of Alabama; Dr. Palmer, president of the Alabama Girls Technical Institute of Montevallo; MT. Dimmitt, principal of the Ensley High school and authority on particular lines of industrial training the late Senator Johnston, and Mir Boy of the educational department of the Illinois Central railroad. MT. Fin ley, late president of the Southern, had said that that road would give employ n,ent to all boys finishing courses in me- chanics at the trade school, and officials of the Seaboard Air Line have offered to maintain demonstration farm in con- nection with the schoof.
 This will be state school and 1t will make of the states boys skilful farm CTS and tradesmen instead of inefficient, discontented toilers. It is worth thinking about, it Is worth working for, and it is worth having.
 Since We know the value of the girls school we feel we could not afford to be without it. We can no more afford to do without this similar school for boys.

a school for the masses, for the boys who are leaving the grammar and high schools and are unprepared for efficient service and for making a success of their lives. It purposes to give practical instruction in such trades as painting, plumbing, electric wiring, asonry, forge work, and printing. As necessity may increase the scope of this work, other trades will be added to include all those whose teaching Is demanded.
 In the agricultural departments will be taught planting, truck gardening, dairy ing. stock and poultry raising. Each Of these will be taught from the beginning to the final handling of the product. The boys will be taught seed selection, prepa- ration of the soil planting. cultivation, irrigation, harvesting. and marketing Land values are to be stressed and the owning of land encouraged.
 point already considered is that the school shall be able to take care of all worthy applicants, It will be open to sons of wealthy parents who wish their boys to learn useful trades, to those whose fathers want to give them better opportunities than they had. to boys whose parents are not fin sympathy with their desire to be educated, and to boys who are orphaned and are making their own way.

Montevallo What does that name mean to you? If you are familiar with school matters you will think immediately pf the Alabama Girls Technical institute located at that place. If you have visited fhat excellent school you will say that Montevallo means a new era for Alabama girls. This technical school is changing completely the lot of many girls whose mothers are hampered for lack of such training as it gives. It is a technical school in the real sense of the word. It teaches cooking, house furnishing, decor pting. designing. embroidery, dressmak- lng millinery weaving, pottery making, btenography, beside history, mathemat- les, languages and science. It is the place Alabama has provided for her girls to learn to become successful, efficient housekeepers, homemakers. professional. Dr business women. It is distinctly a success, and 1t is one of the things to which Alabamians may refer with pride hs a monument to Alabamas apprecia- lion of her girls.
 Now, what of the brothers of these girls? What provision is there for them? Dr. Palmer, president of the girls school, bays that many parents, when arranging Tor their daughters to enter that institute, ask him where they can find a similar pne for their sons. Where is such a school? With all our educational institu- tons, where is one open to any boy-and Kith room for all who might wish to en- ter-in which the grammar and high school courses may be had and where a trade can be learned at the same time ]? There is provision for the literary course In the several public schools, but these are unable to include industrial training. There is provision for the latter in a col reach that institute because there is too great a gap between it and his local grammar school. Many boys have no place where they can do the work that will prepare them to enter there so they hiss not only advance instruction, but also the work that Is preparatory to that knd which is essential to their real sue cess in the agricultural or industrial lines they will pursue. These boys must have a place where they can get gram mar and high school education and at the same time learn a trade or learn inten- Bive farming. Most boys cannot afford to go to school for Il years, for the literary course and afterwards take time and money to learn the other. As matter of fact no boy can afford to spend that much time to reach that end. There is no political economy in that, and there is less than none in letting these boys go without an education.

regard for it's outlook or for his natural bent.
 This stage is where help Is needed, not later, when he is ready for college or for specialization in some particular bus mess or profession. He never gets ready unless there is help at the intermediate stage. The gap between his local gram mar school and the advanced scientific course must be filled. Then. as his abil- ity may dictate he may leave school when he becomes a proficient artisan or he may continue through advanced tech nical courses.
 What has Alabama to fill that gap? Nothing.
 What provision has she. as state. for the industrial training or the mass of her boys? None.
 Several individual counties have begun this work on very small scale, the comparatively small number who can reach the states splendid technical insti- tute have excellent training. There is a place where boys who have come under the ban of the law can have just the teaching and training that is needed by all. These, however, are the exceptions. The host of ordinary boys, those who are the most worthy and who have In them the possibilities of making the best citi- ztrs. are neglected.

 lege or attend a special school end pre- pare for their chosen trade or profession lis ideal. It is also impossible. If such conditions existed we should not need the combination school, but they do not exist and never will We have to reeog- nize that half of the boys do not continue beyond the grammar grades and that it is cur duty to provide for them.
 Do you know the career of the major ity of the states boys? They leave school in their early teens a year or two be- fore or after their completion of the grammar grades. They then go to the mines, or they become apprentices in shops and factories, or they take places as disnterested laborers on their fathers farms. In either line, agricultural or in dustrial they do not, as rule become proficient. They simply add themselves to the host of tolers. They never have the right conception of efficiency, of hcne. or citizenship.
 What is needed is a better place to go at the time they now become farm and shop apprentices. When a boy reaches his early teens and has grown tired of lessons and is beginning to want to make money of his own, or when he Is taken out of school to face the plain, hard necessity of making his way and helping with the support of his fathers family, it is then that he needs help. If he be of the first type, just restless he needs guidance and protection against the dan- Ager of becoming an idler and vagabond. . 1f he be of the second type, leaving Echool from the seeming necessity of earn ing money, he certainly needs to be saved from the narrowed existence that will result
 His literary education should be con- tinued and he should be enabled to master some trade or industry for which he has natural ability. He should not be either Allowed or compelled to abandon books 1nd systematic training and to take what Fever work might present itself. without

 is due to peculiar circumstances. In 1911 it was enacted by the legislature that there be and is hereby created and es- tabished at Ragland, Ala, The Ala bana School of Trades and Industry for the education of white boys and young men in all of the useful and industrial occupations and in the arts and sciences. and to enable the students of such insti- tuition to acquire the education and train ing by employing a part or portion of their time. if necessary while in school, to nay all or part of their board, lodging, and tuition for themselves.'
 At the same time the state made an appropriation for tie school of s50OO0, with an additional $25y000 to be given when the board of trustees should have secured an equal amount. A maintain apce of fund of s5000 a year was prom ised. This was in April 1911. It has now been three years and the school is not yet begun. Efforts have been made to secure the use of the s50,0O0 appropria- ton, but so far they are fruitless. The condition of the state treasury is too vel known to need comment. It Is that that has delayed the school
 The story of the proposed school ex. terds over a period of eight years. Int first person seriously to consider the necessity of a trade school was Hon Watt T. Brown, former state senator from St. Clair county. He saw hundreds of boys growing up with but a smatter- ing of knowledge of any trade and witt their potential possibilities only half de- veloped He saw that they mad little iGea of how to farm successfully, of thu value of their lands. of how to prepare for a trade, and he realized that there was no place where they could learr these things. He began eight years age with desire to help such boys, and that desire has eliminated in his devotine himself to the task of securing a school suited to their needs He has studied an6 investigated until he is convinced thai

A Temperance Drink

An amusing story is being told or a clergyman who was being entertained over a weekend by one of the well-to-do but plain men of a Lancashire town not far from Manchester.
 As soon as the guest was settled by the fiieside on the Sunday evening his host asked him. Are you a teetotaller?''
 Well, no; not exactly" the clergy man admitted
 The master of the house received the statement with obvious relief.
 "Ah'm right glad to hear it." he said Wen had that sort stayin' with us afore Now, if ye'd been one O them teetotal- lers, ye'd "a been wantin' soda water and lemonade and lime juice and ginger ale and nobody knows what all.

Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, MAY 1s, 1914.


 It is with astonishing rapldlty tha. the Colorado disturbances collapsed as soon as the government exercised it's authority in protection of the general Iublic. The public has some rights which the strikers and mine owners alike ignore and who seemed to think they could carry on a actual war within state to settle their differ cnces. Not only has quiet been re- stored by the government with only a, show of force but to protect the strikers in whatever rights they may have. The mine owners are placed upon the same footing with them. If one cannot get work the other can- not get workers. The orders from Washington not to allow strike breaH- CTS to work the mines goes step farther than ever before taken by the government and is striking at the source of much of the trouble.
 With astonishing unanimity the am titious labor disturbances of the past few months collapsed as the govern ment exercised its authority in tho protection of tho general public
 The strikes in question win in South Africa, Portugal and in this country. The course of one parallels the other and each is remarkable for tho swift ness with which the unrest subsided.
 It needed the entire power of the citizens defense force in South Africa to assume control of the situation there and at ono time gave promise of much trouble. The arrest of the mil. . tant leaders. the presence of troops soon brought even the hot-hcads :, tfeir sensea and the workmcn fiockc l hack to their positions.
 In Portugal two hundred of the ring leaders of the general railroad strike were arrested by order of the govern mcnt. The strike had continued Iesy than ten days, but this drastic action CT ded 1t. The strikes in the United states fin several of the states have been as effectively handled Where the government has taken active and firm measures as in Colorado
 The results in each instance is sig
 ''nt because it indicates recog ' milton by the government of tho rights or the third party in every such do- r,oetic disturbance-the general pu'' he signs of the times point to the elimination of warning municipalities of industry. just as modern thought has forced the abolition of conflicting poll : tical organizations.

A Chicago judge who has organized movement to prevent nasty mar. riages' says that 50 per cent. of the hoys arrested for misdemeanors In Chicago and of the young girls who go wrong, are the children of parents who have been divorced. Yet a bulletin of the Agricultural Bureau says:
 "Cheerless, unloveable and unsanitary farm houses drive boys and girls 70 the cities. Investigation of prisons insane asylums and houses of correc- ton seems to prove the fact that tne sins which account for the existence of these institutions are often bred In inadequate and unhappy farm houses"
 The statement of the bureau Is dis illusioning. Are not all American farm houses now equipped with rag; time photographs, garages and all the modern appliances of comfort and en tertainment? But which of the two opposing theories shall the man in tie street accept? Is 1t the divorce court or the farm house that Is really res pcnsible for juvenile delinquency?
 Of course. only an old-fashionei person with reactionary ideas can sup pose that any of the blame rests on the boy or girl. Between heredity environment. prenatal influences and what not no freedom of will fin the matter is left to the youth Under the new social predestination he must Dc what something else makes him. not what he makes himself in character and moral fibre.
 Certainly the boys and girls of a former generation labored under dis advantage in having none of the scape- goats for their shortcomings with which social reformers now so freely Lrovide them.-Ex.
