 LONDON, July 26.-Continual and overwhelming successes attend the westward sweep of the Russian arm ies from Riga southward to where the Russian lines embrace the most southerly passes of the Carpathian range and threaten to sweep like rushing pillow over Hungary. At practically every point against which the Slavs thrust their huge battering ram the Teutons are compelled to give way after suffering terrible losses in their desperate attempts to stem the tide that is gradually throwing them back. The Russian reports detail a constant succession of victories at

VOCATIONAL EDUCATION
SURVEY OF RICHMOND

How to make the work of the public
schools more practically useful in pre-
pairing children for Vocations which
they wish to follow is a question
which many citizens are trying to
answer. While the question Of Vo-
cational education is one fundament-
ally much broader than the temporary
need of any locality or industry, each
city must adapt its plan to the social,
Industrial, and educational conditions
of the community. The way one city
! has sought to solve this problem il
shown in report on a vocatlona
education survey of Richmond, Va
just published by the U. S. Bureau
of Labor Statistics of the Department
of Labor as its Bulletin 1872 The sur
vey here described was made unde4
the auspices of a survey committee Or
ganized by the National Society for
the Promotion of Industrial Educa-
ton, and having the cooperation of the
u. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the
U. S. Bureau of Education, the Rus
sell Sage Foundation, and the school
authorities and citizens of Richmond.
The chief purpose of this survey
was to secure for Richmond an accur-
ate knowledge Of the Industrial and
school facts and conditions necessary
in developing plan of vocational edu-
cation to serve the practical needs OF
children preparing for the various vo-
cations and of employers and employ
/ ees. A special object of the survey
was to secure the cooperation of Ma
i tional and local public and private
agencies in the making Of a survey
which might be useful as model for
studies in other localities where the
need of better program of vocation
| al education was pressing.
School Conditions.
/ The survey included study Of the
public schools of Richmond, with spe-
eial attention to the present status
of vocational and technical education
and the fields Of employment in Rich
mond, and study and analysis Of
the occupations of men in the print
| ing, building, and metal trades, and
of women in retail stores and in the
tobacco factories. The analysis of oc-
cu9ations was from the standpoint of
] both the employer and employee, and
was designed especially to ascertain
] in detail for each occupation the con-
ditions of employment, what the oc-
cupation has to offer the workers,
what the worker needs to equip him
properly for the trade, what the indus
try gives in the way of training, the
more common deficiencies of workers
as seen by the employer and by the
workers themselves, and In detail the
specific training which in the judg-
ment OF the employer and worker the

foreign trade, are touched upon. The
special agent also makes it point to
confer with the heads of commerce
classes in universities and schools
in an endeavor to find out how far
the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce can go in making the train
ing of commercial students more prae-
teal. Lack of properly trained men
in foreign trade has been one OF the
most serious obstacles in the way OF
American trade expansion.

to meet this need before the compile

or possibility of a girls trade school
