 Trying to Organize Band.
 Another report was that the First Regiment band had been placed under arrest because it had refused to take the federal oath. Colonel Goodman said that his regiment would go south without music but declined to say what would become of the band which was left behind. All but three members of the Second Regiment refused to swear in but most of them were in line tonight and played the hattalions to the station giving patriotic airs, and rendering a number of selections while the men were waiting at the station. The band then marched back to camp to stay there until the enlist ments of the men have expired, or their status determined as in the case of the First Regiment band members. Leader Fichtl, who was one of the three members swearing in, will try to recruit band. One member who would not swear in later expressed a wish to change his attitude and to ask for the place of drum major.

ONE PROBLEM

UPERINTENDEN WILSON SAYS
1T is GREATEST PROBLEM IN
CONNECTION WITH SCHOOL

state superintendent Wilson has
sent out the following letter TO the
superintendent and presidents of
the boards of education of all cities
In the state which maintain four
year course:
"Within the last few years. voca-
tional training has become cntrench-
ed in the course of study offered by
the public schools Especially Is this
true in cities. one of the greatest
problems in connection with our en-
tire school system today Is the teach
ing of thrift. The introduction Of
vocational instruction has helped u
great deal in this respect
in the older cities school savings
banks have been established, and as
result the school children have
saved many thousands of dollars that
otherwise would have been spent for
something of no particular value to
the children or for something actually
detrimental
"The schools ought to do their part
in securing positions for worthy boys
and girls who have no one to assist
them in securing positions and who
must necessarily work during vaca-
tion in order to earn money with
which to pay their expenses during
the next school year, The time will
como in few years when the teach
ers in the schools will give especial
attention to securing positions for
worthy boys and girls who want work
during vacation.

year to do something along the line
of thrift teaching. Many have re-
