VOCATIONAL TRAINING
FOR ARIZONA YOUTH

Prof. l. Colodny, new state director
of vocational education, has issued the
following statement:
The Smith-Hughes act which passed
Congress February II, 1917, and the
provisions of which were accepted by
the last Legislature provides Arizona
with $4,000 for the year 1917-1918,
and will automatically increase until
1926, when it will reach the perma-
nent fund of 100000. These amounts
must be matched, dollar for dollar, by
the state. For the year 1917-1918,
therefore, there will be available for
vocational education in Arizona
100000.
This money will be used to develop
in the schools the teaching of agricul-
ture, home economics, and the indu-
trial trades. One-third of the fund
will be devoted to training teachers
so they may be equipped teach these
subjects adequately.
The Smith-Hughes act is revolution
izing secondary school education. 1t
is the result of many years Of talk
among educators and many years OF
experimenting with vocational educa-
ton. 1t grew out of the cambined rec
concentrations of educators and ma
tional organizations of educators and
is a decided departure from the atti-
tude and treatment of vocational edu-
cation that prevailed in our schools
up to now.
The test of vocational subject, &C
cording to the Smith, Hughes act, is:
"Will the pupil be able to find profit
able employment at it?" The object
is no longer merely to train the hand,
but to provide the boy and the girl
with a calling at which they can make
sufficient living. The conviction is
also present that by concentrating in
the school on learning by doing" on
practical work, there will be no sacri-
flee of mental training that is now
provided by the so-called cultural
Subjects" not even the polish that is
supposed to be reaped from the study
of languages, history and literature.
To acquire in the school sufficient
training in a given vocation so as to
be able to make a profitable living
Immediately thereafter, it will be
necessary for the pupil to give at least
half of the school day to the group
of practical subjects that bear on his
chosen vocation. When he completes
his school course there will be a de-
mand for his services and he will be
able to step into a job as a trained
artisan.
Nor does it suggest that the boy
who leaves the high school trained in.
agriculture or as an artisan of some
kind will have all other professional
avenues closed to him. A boy with
knowledge of agriculture or with train
ing in the use of tools is as we'll fit

cine, engineering or enter the COM

The Vigilantes


The Vigilantes
When the Germans let loose upon
the world their poison gas and their
liquid fire, the world, aghast, thought
that the end had been reached.
1t had not. For since that time
have these same Germans found, and
brought to use, even a still fore lethal
weapon-a weapon alike as yelled as
it is deadly, as noxious as it is effect
i've, and quite in keeping with the
absolute negation of ethics, or morals,
of decencsy, of humanity that has
marked Germany's warfare from the
Belgian atrocities down to the present
date.
And this new weapon is lies.
Throughout this country, as well as
throughout the countries of the allies,
Germany has flung her serried lines
of German liars. All kinds of lies
they tell, and in all kinds of ways,
from the 42-centimeter lie that no
one believes down to the dumdum lie
that makes a little hole going in and
big one coming out, and the chlor-
inc lie that you don't even know is
lie until you find that you are over
come to a point where some friend
has to give you the restorative of
truth.
There is the direct lie, and the
richochet. There is the nitroglycerine
lie that eXplodes itself when it hits;
and the time-fuse lie that doesn't go
off for a week or so. There are lies
on the land, in the airfi on the sea,
and under the sea.
And all these lies, effective and in
effective, big and little, are directed
against each of the allied nations to
confuse, to district, to puzzle, to delay,
them in the successful prosecution of
the war.
"The life of an aviator is only 80
hours in the air!"
And there are aviators who have
been flying for three years!
1.-The navy is roteen with diseased"
Maybe so? But you must admit that
when it comes to sinking submarines
they do pretty well for bunch of
invalids.
"The camps are hotbeds of immor-
ality!"
A lie on the face of it. If there
were the inclination, there is neither
the place nor the opportunity.
"This is not Americas war;"
Whose war is it to defend the
rights of America and Americans
against submarines at sea and plots
on land to present Texas, New Mexi-
co, and Arizona to Mexico? To say

WOBBL|ES AGAIN PLOT
TING TROUBLE IN STATE

CHICAGO, March Publicity mat
ter brought to light shows that 1. w.
w. are now bending their efforts to-
wards re-establishing domination in
Arizona and that much migration is
being directed to that state, where
radicals of other organizations are
extending assistance to the I. w. w.
to hold secret meetings and gain
temporary employment for the pur-
pose of renewing disaffection, par
ticularly in the mining districts and
cotton fields.
Propaganda of complaint as to al
legged unsafe and unhealthy working
conditions, of wages less than living
costs, of domination of armed men,
the latter report being for the purpose
of keeping away union men whose or
CARNATIONS forbid their working under
guards, and variety of other un-
truths have been authorized, with in
structions to have affidavits made in
their support and where it is not pos
sible to get these printed in publica-
tons going through the mails, to post
them in public places and to secure
and distribute copies of such publica-
tions as do print the affidavits.
Printed matter being turned out for
Arizona intimates that state authori-
ties are friendly to the 1. w. w. and
success of the present movement as
sured. Other matter urges that no eff
fort be spared or opportunity over
looked to. curtail the production of
copper and cotton, essential war ma
terials, as the people must be taught
the determination of the I. w. w. to
win over all obstacles. Members are
instructed to join union locals upon
entering Arizona and to assist in every
way possible to get skilled mechanics
into these in order that they may be
registered in the United States labor
division and be drawn away from en-
ployment in the copper districts. They
are told to dwell particularly upon
higher wages in other employments
and to get men to leave for these
mostly mythical fields
Success is claimed in several en-
deavors to curtail copper output and
praise given for a loss of over 100000
pounds of metal alleged caused one
company. Praise is also given for al
legged success in giving false reputa-
ton to several mines for bad working
conditions.

USE MORE RICE

Rice is one of the best substitutes
to use in preparing wheatless and
meatless meals.
Because it has little individual flaw.
or, it takes on the taste Of the dish
with which it has been combined.
This quality makes rice an excellent
foundation for milk and cheese dishes,
or combination with meat, chicken
and fish.
Rice can be combined with any
vegetables, made into a variety of
desserts, used to thicken soups or
mixed with wheat flour or corn meal
in making bread.
Even a spoonful left over can be
stirred into bread, mixed in chicken
stuffing or dropped in the soup pot
Left over rice may be Drowned in
fat for breakfast or made into cakes
by adding eggs, little milk, glour
to thicken and a teaspoon of baking
powder. Try these rice cakes for
breakfast with syrup.

duction in gold output of $8,133,7OO.
and in silver output of 17O,3O2 fine

Arizona, which produced $4,092, 800
in 1916, yielded $5,533,SOO in gold in
1917 and was the only state which
had an increased output The decreas-
es in the yield of gold from the prin-
cipal producing states were as fol-

INCREASED GOLD OUTPUT, 1917

Arizona was the only state in the
union which showed an increased pro-
duction of gold for the year 1917, ac-
cordlng to figures recently compiled
by the U. S. Geological Survey. This
state was sixth in gold production and
fifth in the production of silver, the
valuation of these products being re-
spectively $685., 800 and $6,738,9O
California led the entire United
States in gold production with a
total of $2O,S15, 900. Arranged in the
order Of their Importance the first
six states with the valuation of the
yellow metal output are as follows:
