GREATH0USE SEES BIG
OPPORTUNITY FOR SCHOOLS
Vocational Education and Domestic
Science Teaching Extended
and Improved.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, sept r.
THE year 1914-15 is rich in POSSIBLE
tiles for the Indiana public schools"
said Charles A. GreathOuse state
superintendent of public instruction.
today in statement on the opening
of the present school year.
1.-THE present year should yield
unprecedented returns" he continued.
Vocational education has taken the
first steps as a legalized and organized
line of work. Practically every school
house in Indiana now possesses some
equipment for vocational work.
The future Of this nation is bound
up with the question of economy. If
domestic science teaches the young
people how 20 live the largest possible
lives with the incomes at their dis
poSal; If agriculture teachest hem how
TO procure a maximum yield with a
minimum expenditure; of manual
training teaches them how to make
useful articles at little cost, how to
improve their surroundings by simple
inexpensive means, the vocational
work in our public schools will be Of
lasting benefit TO the state.
The year 191415 finds the Amer
lean people alone at peace with other
nations. This school year opens with
the most extensive and bloody conflict
in progress that has ever been record
ed. The subjects of geography and
history will find at every turn, a point
of application to these stirring events
No one knows when the entire map of
Europe may be changed and what
pages will be added to history in the
next few months or years. The teach
er has a rare opportunity TO compare
the benefits of peace with the horrors
Of war and show how the unbiased
and impartial inquiries into both sides
OF the question, the fool medicines
and unerring judgment on the part of
men at the head of national affairs
may preserve a country in a threat
ened crisis.
This month sees the opening of
eight thousand school buildings in In
diana and the entrance to those
buildings Of five hundred thousand
boys and girls 60 be under the infiu-
ence and instruction of seventeen
thousand teachers. The maintenance
of these schools will cost Indiana sew
en- million dollars.
Conditions we're never more pro-
pitiOuS for a splendid school year and
never were opportunities offered for
all school work and CORE
lating the subjects tuaght, not only
one with another, but with the COM
munities' activities outside. As school
officials, teachers and patrons we shall
fall far short of our obligations to the
state and nation if the year 1914-15
does not find US shoulder to shoulder
in our efforts, not only to advance the
public schools but as citizens to meet
sQuarely, honestly and with open
minds, trying questions that confront

FIRST WEEKS ENROLMENT
SHOWS 8,100 STUDENTS

There are $500 pupils enrolled in
the city public schools. This is the
record for schools as compiled during
the first weeks enrolment by Supt.
l. J. Montgomery. OF this number
of students 1900 are registered in the
ward schools and grammar building.
The enrolment has increased $50
during the present week. That is 80
more students have registered for
class work At the schools than did
the during the opening day. This
Will be increased slightly during the
next week, after which the normal
will again be resumed.
The total enrolment this year it is
expected will exceed that of last by
more than 700. This is partially due
TO the new tTuancy law, which re-
quires a boy between the ages Of Il

some definite employment.
