Large quantities Of grapes hav"
been sold for the producers on ha,
wall These grapes are usually made
into wine, but due to the uncertainty
regarding prohibition and the large
quantity OF wine now in storage. the
producers are trying TO find other
uses for them. An attempt was made
to make grape juice, but experiments
showed that a product that could com,
pare favorably with the standard
brands could not be made from the
Isabella grape.

The government collects the Curren, taxes and by
means of bonds anticipates taxes of the years to
come. and all the money thus acquired passes back
iEtO the hands of the taxpayers. This is why gov
ernments which follow sound economic methods not
only are not impoverished by wars but sometimes
emerge the stronger as England did after the Napo-

New YOrk'S School Failure
(From Daily Financial America)

President Wilcox of the board of education is
mortified to find how much basis there is for the
common declaration that the Rs are not taught in
the public schools.
He is not half so mortified as is the businessman
who employs boy just graduated from New York
school suppOsng the youngster is fit for something.
OF 1913 public school graduates who applied for

be no complaint if the result good. But it is not

shows
One employer tells of his experience spread over
period of 10 years In that time he engaged many
ofic boys some direct from school at vacation time,
some through Y NJ. c. J. branches, some through
advertising, some through acquaintance. Every
boy he engaged came out of New York school. OF

utterly useless Some of them had natural bright
ness but school had blunted their desires for knOwl

was a tragedy to see that amount of human mate
rial had been misused by our so-called public edu-
Gators.
There is too much of politics in the educational
system of New York and too little teaching.
There is too much of jugglery and too little of
work.
A few years back the Sunday editor of one of the
New York newspapers looked over the school re-
ports of his youngest son. The reports were fiat
tering The editor looked at the boys school work.
1t was bad In spelling the boy had erred grossly.
In multiplication, division, addition subtraction he
had made various mistakes. His hand writing was
not satisfactory.
And yet in everything the teacher marked his
work 100 per cent.

The editor demanded an explanation 1t was that
the teacher rated the child by effort not by result
The editor gave page to exhibit the work of his
son and to express his horror of such system of
schooling. He might as we'll have printed page

SKAGGS is UP AGAIN

READY FOR BIG BATTLE
Believe Germans Will Make Desper-
ate Thrust for Calais

(By the Associated Press.)
The Franco-Belgian front is bris-
Ting with military activity. All re-
ports indicate preparations for opera
lions on a large scale. When the blow
will come and where it will fall. how
ever, still are matters for specula-
ton. g.
The Germans recently closed the
Belgian Dutch frontier and there are
reports of important troops move
ments behind the secret barrier. These
are interpreted as presaging another
attempt by the Germans to break thru
the User lines in a drive for Calais
a move vainly attempted earlier in the
war.
In the Champagne the fighting be-
tween the French and Germans con-
tinues brisk. Paris last night re-
ported the regaining of all the
trenches the Germans had taken on
the commanding Hill 1S5, near Mai
sons de Champagne.
Today's French war office bulletin
announced the complete repulse of a
violent German counter attack here.
Rerlin's account of yesterdays fight
ing does not admit the recapture by
the French of Hill 1856. but comedies
loss of ground on the southwest slope.
Germa ny also announces an attack by
the British on a wide front south of
Arras which it declares was repulsed
with heavy British losses.
Multitude of Air Clashes.
It has been apparent for several
DAYS that an intense battle for air
supremacy was being waged on the
Franco Belgian front, with the Brit
ish aerial forces the especial object
of the German attack. Light on this
struggle was thrown. by a statement
made for the British government to-
day in the house of commons in which
it was conceded that the struggle for
supremacy was notably intense after
a winters strengthening of the aerial
arm of both belligerents. The Brit
ish were taking every measure to
gain the upper hand definitely it was
indicated and there was every reason
to hope that they would again assert
their supremacy.
