with the white people among whom
they live and who have the inherent
right to rule the country. While there
may be a few demagogues who for
personal motives may wish to revive
this dead issue, they are few and far
between. There is not an intelligent,
patriotic citizen of Louisiana who has
any such desire, no matter what may
be his political views in other re-
spects. They all realize what bale
full effect it would have on the social,
political and material welfare of our
beloved state, which is in such pro.
gressive and prosperous condition

in the possible election of Mr.. John

"The Journals reasons for oppos.

not personal to that candidate. They
deal entirely with the political inter-
ests he represents. Nor do we share
the apprehension OF those super-zeal-

might bring back the negro. Nothing,
we are convinced, is further from Mr..
Parker's thoughts. His indignation
at being charged with something that
is utterly at variance with his life and
sentiments Is perfectly natural and
Just. Democratic editors who are
pursuing this line of argument against
the Progressive candidate are really
weakening the Democratic cause. y

Vocational Guidance.

"Probably no phase of the
movement for vocational educa.
ton exhibits clearer evidence of
the rapid evolution in thought aud
practice that is taking place than
vocational guidance, "says DR.. w.
T. Bawden, specialist in industrial
education of the United States
Bureau of Education, in his an.
nual review of progress for the
year 1915 made to the Secretary
of the Interior.
"Only few short months ago
vocational guidance was conceiv.
ed of chiefly as a matter of giving
to boys and girls advice in the
choosing of a life work and assist.
ing in the securing of positions.
In view of the ambitious attempts
made in a few quarters, and espe.
cially the claims of few concerns
that have investigated the COM
mercial possibilities of vocational
guidance. extravagant expecta.
tons have been raised in the
popular mind that have not been
realized.
This conceptions is rapidly pass.
ing, however. and among the lead.
ers of the vocational guidance
movement the chief function Of
their work is now regarded as the
study of vocational conditions
and opportunities, and the maxi
ing of the resulting information
available to boys and girls.
1.-THE most important service
that can be rendered the indivi.
dual youth, under the name of vo.
cational guidance, is to set him
to thinking, at the proper time,
about the problem of choosing a
life work as a problem to be seri-
ously faced and prepared for-to
make him fully conscious of it's
existence as q problem to be solv.
ed, and aware of the sources of
data having any bearing on it's
solution"
