MANYSTUDENTSTO
lose Their VOTES
Wost of Those at the State UNI
versity Hit by Supreme
Court Ruling.
MUST Be SELF SUPPORTING
Required Also to Show They Intend
to Make Madison Permanent Home
If They Are to Cast
Their Ballots.

Madison.-No student may vote IN
Madison who comes here solely for
educational purposes, who is depend
ent upon his family for support and
who has not the intention of perma-
nently residing in this city.
By a decision written by Justice r.
C. Eschweiler and handed down by
the supreme court, the great majority
of University of Wisconsin students
will be DISTINGUISHED. Under it, only
those may vote who can show that
they are not dependent upon their fam
lilies, nor the residents of any other
city and who propose to make Madison
their home.
This was the decision in the case OF
Fred Seibold of Camp Douglas. 1t is
reversal of Judge E. Ray Stevens of
this city. Justice Eschweiler wrote !:
1--WE find that Seibold registered in
the university from Camp Douglas,
where his parents reside and to which
place he returns as opportunity per-
mits, and who is dependent in part, at
least, upon that home for his support.
His attendance at the university is
for a temporary purpose merely. We
are Of the opinion that the defendants,
VAIL and Riley, were clearly right I'M
der the facts as presented to them in
denying SeibOld the right to vote, and
the order of the circuit court Overrul-
ing the demurrer to the complaint
must be reversed"
The court sustained the decisions of
Judge Stevens in the cases of John
Gross and Albert Asbahr in which it
was clearly shown that they were self
supporting and "emancipated" from
their families. Both may vote.
All cases were actions against cleo
ton officials who refused to allow stu
dents to vote.

ing or other studies which will adj
vance him in his chosen occupation tho
continuation schools will serve the
purpose. All that is necessary is to
make application to the local school.
The efforts of the board are so to
supplement the endeavOrs of the
previously organized schools that
every boy and girl will be provided an
equal opportunity for training in his
or her chosen vocation with that given
by the state and cities to the more for
tunate and favored children who have
the educational avenue established
through the high school and college
for training in the professions.
The report of the secretary showed
that much is being accomplished ia
the way of extending the service,
adapting the instruction of the schools
more and more to the vocational in
terests of the people and greater econ
Omy in the administration by bringing
together more closely instruction in
manual training and the continuation
school using the same tools, appli-
anceS, teachers and buildings.

Extend Vocational Training.

AT the recent meeting of the state
board of industrial education held in
the capitol, the state movement for in
dustrial education was given an. i'm
petus beyond anything which has been
developed thus far throughout the
country.
1t is not generally understood that
the work of the Wisconsin schools,
which are established for the unlim-
tied educa tional opportunity of all per-
sons who are not able to take advan-
tage of the already established public
schools is away beyond that of any
other state in the country.
During the past year there were
over $4,000 people in the state who
were able to take advantage Of this
specialized form of educational oppor-
tunity which provides for unlimited
training. If the housewife wishes to
learn how to make over clothing, TO
cook, to purchase economically, or the
workman wishes to get special train
ing in mathematics, drawing, design

Cranes for the KIM.

1t is reported that the kings grape
vine at Windsor, in the gardens near
Cumberland Lodge, is doing well this
year and is likely to yield more than
500 lunches. Planted in 1875, it is 100
feet in length and 20 feet in width.
The most remarkable vine in Europe,
however, is the famous vine at Hamp-
ton Court, from which this is cut
ting. This was planted in 176S and
still yields abundantly.

Brinq FLOWING Reports OF Badgers.
Glowing reports of the Wisconsin
boys on the border were brought back
by Gen. Charles r. BOardman and
Adjt. Gen. Orlando Holway. General
Boardman went down to Texas as a
personal representative of Governor
Philip, while General Holway accom-
panied him to arrange certain details
affecting the Wisconsin troops.
General Green, Z. S. A., in command
Of the Twelfth division, sent word that
the Wisconsin brigade is one of the
finest on the border. They are earn
ing brilliant name for the state Of
Wisconsin by their good behavior, fine
appearance, and endurance through
the stiff program which has been
meted out to them.
General Holway reports that the
boys are all feeling fine and seem to be
getting good rations and fair treat
ment. Many of them are anxious to
learn when they will be ordered home.
AS soon as President Wilson decides
to reduce the number of men on the
border, the Wisconsin boys will be
among the first to be mustered out.

Practically all of the city supe.'in-

of supervising principals were in Mad
isOn to attend the city superintendent
convention. The main idea of the con-
ference was tests and measurements,
or the standardization of school work
and the measuring of results.
The speakers included Prof. Daniel
Starch of the university Principal IL.
L. Miller of the Wisconsin high school
and Dean V. A. G. Henmon of the
School of Education.
Inspector w. w Thiesen of the de
partnent Of public instruction spoke
on the general topic of ''Tests and
Measurements" Mr. Thiesen has
come to the department this fall from
work in this field in Columbia univer-
Sity under the general education
board and is engaged to aid city super
intendentS and other school officials
in measuring the work of their local
schools. Normal schools are cooper
ating in the Standardization movement
and have expressed their desire for a

dents in the administering of standard

Military Training Installed.

With the installation of a practical
military training system at the state
refOrmatory for boys at Green Bay by
direction of the state board of con-
troll better men, both physically and
mentally, will result when inmates re-
turn. to take up their stations in So
ciety, members of the board believe.
Capt. M. p. Imhoff, formerly of Com
pany E, Wisconsin National Guard
who has been engaged as drill master,
has taken charge of the work. Cap
tain ImhOff had been a guardSman 10
years and captain for 10 years, and
is we'll versed in drilling methods.
"The inmates will be drilled for an
hour every day, but this training will
not interfere with the regular work or
school duties of a prisoner" said Cap
tain Imhoff. Regular military drill
movements, similar to those used in
the infantry, will be used.
"There are 800 boys and they will
be divided into squads. platoons,
camps and battalion will be formed
Of all the groups. Prisoners who show
an inclination to leadership in drilling
and who have a record of good be-
havior will be appointed corporals,
sergeants and probably lieutenants.
"In addition to the regular drill the
West Point setting-up drill will be
taught, which is the same exercise
used at West Point. This exercise, in
particular, makes the men look differ
ent after a number of drills. Most of
these chaps have had no chance in
life, and walk with a sloppy gait and
are stOop-shouldered.
"These exercises will remove those
defects and develop them physically
and mentally. The men will drill with
wooden guns or wands.''
Captain Imhoff recently returned
from tour of inspection Of eastern
reforlnatories where the system has
been used with success. In Elm ira,
n. Y, he saw 1000 boys go through
the various drills in perfect order.
