ARMY PLAN FOR EDUCATION.
Columbia Professor Urges COmpul-
sory Vocational Training.

In an address at Chicago before
vocational educators of the middle
west, DR. John Dewey of Columbia
university, New York City, urged
compulsory vocational education for
all persons between the ages of 18
and 20, together with military train
ing. DIR. Dewey suggests that after
the war present cantonments be used
as mammoth centralized schools,
where men and women of the ages
indicated would be compelled to at
tend.
"Such a plan would revolutionize
the present social system" he said.
while strong men were taking mill
tary training the physical weaklings
could be trained in other lines. 1t
would also provide training for wom-
en-, who are completely left out of
universal training plans"
Dr. Dewey posed as stern school
master. If his plan succeeds we will
not only have compulsory education
for "grown-ups," but also compulsory
military service, camouflaged under
the soothing syrup term, universal
military training"

THE ART OF CRITICISING
By THE REV. CHARLES sTELZLE.

Criticism is fair and legitimate
Most of us need to be hit, and hit
hard some times, principally because
we often get the notion that we have
monopoly of wisdom. This is par
ticularly true of those who are accus-
toned to have their own way because
for the time being they are placed in a
position of authority.
But criticism should be constructive
rather than destructive. Most any
fool can see the badness and the weak
ness in men and things. Faults are
always glaring. But it takes wise
man to see the good which may be
covered over by the bad Not to judge
merely by superficial appearances re-
quires knowledge.

SMOKED SHARK AS WAR RATION
Atlantic Coast Fishermen Preparing
to Put the Meat on Sale.

Smoked shark meat as war ration
will soon make its appearance on the
market, according to information of
the department of commerce For
some time past the department has
endeavored, thru demonstration work,
to create a substantial market for the
flesh of the tiger of the seas" Rep
resentatives of the bureau of fisheries
went to Florida to demonstrate meth
ods of smoking the fish. A Mayport,
Fla, fisherman has taken up the smok-
ing of shark meat and is prepared
to fill orders. Other firms along the
Atlantic coast are also preparing to
put shark meat on sale.
Denver labor bulletin., 1918-02-16

True criticism does not necessarily
mean pointing out of weakness. II
may be the discovery of virtue. How
ever, most criticism is of the other
kind. 1t is just plain, simple knock
ing"
Criticism of another generally acts
as boomerang upon the unjust critic,
because the critic is most apt to point
out in another the failing which is pc
culiarly his own.
AS a general proposition it is bet
ter to criticise yourself than to wait
until another fellow gets chance to
self in your criticism, if you expect
criticise you; and be merciless to your
mercy from another.

l. We believe that the national
crisis requires increased emphasis on
the value of our schools and should
lead to coordinate genuinely ma
tional and democratic system of edu-
cation. Child labor and school attend
ance provisions should not be sus-
pended. Conditions also in higher
education are not reassuring. Those
on the point of graduation, the country
may perhaps use now. But it is re-
ported that in some colleges 80 per
cent of the students have been per-
mitted to enlist This enthusiasm is
admirable but in many lines of work,
an additional two years of training
would double or treble a student s
value to the nation, even from purely
military point of view. May we not
hope that this shortsighted waste of
human ability will be checked?
Against this misguided diversion of
our boys and girls and young men and
women from the schools and colleges
to the industrial and military field
President Wilson, Secretary of War
Baker and Commissioner of Educa-
ton Claxton have vigorously protested
But in many sections a headstrong
public opinion has overridden their
protests and appeals. Your commit
do everything in its power to drive
home into the public consciousness
this principle:
Educated manhood and womanhood
is the nations greatest asset in both
peace and war. And we must not
sacrifice, even to an emergency, the
increased national efficiency which
can be attained only thru organized
educational training.
=. This convention urgently calls
upon international and local unions
state and central bodies, to work ac-
lively for adequate representation of
organized labor on all boards of edu-
cation.
8. The free text book system
should be extended to such states as
have not adopted it.
4. Teachers should be secured
tenure of positions during efficiency
There should be no dismissals without
a full and fair hearing. And, in this
connection, it is timely to insist that
while actual disloyalty to our country
cannot be tolerated in our public
schools or anywhere else, the public
must carefully assure itself that
charges of disloyalty, or of any other
nature that may be peculiarly effective
at the time, are not cloaks under
which official superlors may attempt
to secure retaliation for a self-re-
specting lack of subserviency on the
part of teachers under them.
>. Thru the committee on state
organization, the president and execu-
tive council of the American Fedora
[ tion of Labor have been instructed to
aid in securing immediate increases
| in teachers salaries. Your commit
/ tee on education heartily concurs and
urges on all affiliated bodies active CO
operation. One of the most fragrant
/ injustices and most dangerous weak
nesses in our national life is the con-
tinued neglect of these valuable pub
/ lie servants.
6. Your committee is alarmed by
the lack of democracy in the conduct
of our schools. Our American school
system is administered automatically
the teachers actually on the job in the
class rooms having negligible voice

NEED NOT SEEK POPULARITY
nExpert" May Achieve Highest Meas
ure of Success, but Naturally He
viii Never Be Loved.

There is not much mystery, or even
any at all, in the dislike of experts"
that is felt and expressed by not few.
The expert man is a man who goes to
other men and tells them that the
way in which they are doing their work
Is not the best way-that 1t is bad,
costly, or even stupid way-and that If
they will only listen to him and follow
his advice their work will be improved
and their efficiency increased.
None Of us takes pleasure in hear
ing talk Of that sort, and the displeas-
ure is greater in exact proportion with
length Of the hearers training and ex-
perience in conducting his business,
trade, or art. All that the. expert says
carries the implication of adverse crit1-
cism directed against the recipient of
his suggestions, and usually 1T is criti-
cism Of that recipients father and
grandfather. OF course that is re-
sented, and the resentment is bitterest
when the expert goes ahead and gives
undeniable proof that his new way
Of doing things is better than the old
ways which have long been productive
of honor and profit.
The expert, too, is always open to
the convenient charge that he is not
"practical"-that he is a man of the
cries and fads. Sometimes the charge
is true-bR only of the expert who
claims the Hsme without deserving it.

revealed the remarkable tact which
our enemy displayed in his associa-
tions at sea, which no doubt resulted
advantageously for him. AS he ex-
pressed it, he "made hit" one evening
when the crowd has assembled for a
little music by suggesting that they
sing "God Save the King" Thereafter
his popularity was assured and the de.
sired effect accomplished, for very
soon a French officer came up to him
and said, "It's too bad that England
and ourselves haven't men in our army
like you" It. was too bad, he agreed,
in telling me about 1t, because he was
confident he could have done whole
lot more for Germany If he had been
in the English army. In spite of his
apparent loyalty, however, the man
didn't seem very enthusiastic over the
war and frankly admitted one day that
the old political battles waged in Cali
forhia were much more to his liking
than the battles he had gone through
over here. On second thought he
laughed as though 1t were good joke,
but he evidently intended me to infer
that he had taken a keen interest in
politics in San Francisco.

| NOVELIST HAD HIS REVENGE
Dumas Worked With Subtlety, b&
Was Satisfied That 1t Would Be
Thoroughly Complete.

When Alexandra Dumas, the French
novelist, was a young man, he was
grievously insulted by man whom he
had regarded as his friend.
Everyone expected him to punish the
offender severely, but instead he began
looking upon him with more consider
alton and apparent friendliness than
he had ever shown before.
At length, three years later, when
the erstwhile friend was to. be married,
the novelist was asked to serve as best
man, and did so. When the ceremony
was over and the guests were leaving
someone remarked to Dumas: II have
often wondered at your: kindness to
this man. Surely yours is remark
ably forgiving nature, for although he
insulted you grossly, you have assidu-
ously studied his happiness ever since,
and even assisted him in getting mar
ried"
"Ouite right" answered Dumas. II
flatter myself that 1 have given the
fellow the most furious and lEpx-eyed
mother-in-law to be found in France I"

|SANC|ENT CUSTOM
No One Knows Who Originated
the "Round Robin"
Long In Use on Shipboard for Deter
mining Each Sailors Watch-often
Employed In the Form
of Petition.

That watch kept on board ship at
night, while lying at anchor, Is called
the anchor watch. Generally speaking
it consists of one officer and one sea-
man, whose duties are to watch out for
the safety of the ship, see that the
anchor light is kept burning brightly,
and take care that the vessel does not
drag her anchor. If there are eight
hours Of darkness to be covered and
eight men constitute the crew, these
men are required to watch one hour
each. II there be more or less men
the question arises who Is to 60 on
watch first or last, or, perhaps, who
Is to 'lay over' until the next day.
It thus becomes necessary to ascer-
tain who is to 60 on duty at a GER
tain hour and each man must know
when his turn comes. Arrangement
for this is made by forming "round
robin" or putting it in another way,
by "chalking for Watches" which is ac-
complished in such a way that each
sailor has the time for keeping his
watch determined by lot, one not be-
ing favored more than another. The
thing is decided in this way:
One man draws a large circle on
the lid of chest, or, If that Is not con-
venient, the deck. The circle is SUBJ
divided into as many divisions as there
are men; and each man makes his
mark in one of the spaces. This may
be cross, a circle, triangle, or any
other sign that will suffice to identify
him.
During the time the sailors are
placing their marks within the division
Of the circle, one of their number is de-
tanned outside on deck and kept in
ignorance of the identity of any au-
thor of any mark. When all have
made their marks the round robin Is
complete. The man who was on deck
is now called, someone else having
made a mark for him. This man now
proceeds to erase the marks, one by
one. The, owners Of the marks are
numbered from number one up, in sue
cession, as he erases them, and their
numbers are chalked up on the sides
of the berths; those above number ten
lying over until the next night. AS the
man who grasses the marks does not
know who made this or that, he can
not show any partiality.
The round robin is sometimes put to
other use when the crew Of vessel
at sea wish to present grievance in
the form Of a petition to the captain.
Their complaint is made out in writ
ing, and the signature put in the form
Of a round robin, which prevents the
writer of the document from being
singled out and treated, as ringlead-
er, with undue severity. A famous case
in example Of similar use of the round
robin in the army within recent times
was the Roosevelt Round Robin" dur
ing the Spanish war.
Where the custom originated no one
knows.

Spain Is Buyinu Pianos.

The American government is buying
mules and blankets in Spain and pay
ing for them with pianos made in the
United States, according to George W..
Pound, manager Of the National Piano
Manufacturers association, in calling
attention to one Of the striking devel-
opments at the present time in this
country's export trade.
GAS is the case with neutrals gen.
orally" Mr.. Pound said, much of
Spain's population has profited largely
by the war, and the demand for pianos
has persisted in spite Of the fact that
the prices of all musical instruments
in Spain have doubled and trebled
since the war began"
Mr.. Pound said that the American
manufacturers were thereby offered an
unusual opportunity to help the gov
ernment pay the war bills as we'll as to
meet the foreign demand for our goods.
In this connection, Mr.. Pound said, pi-
ano manufacturers can only export
their pianos through government IL
cense.

"Nordics."

"Nordic" is the name recently given
to the race which used to be called
"Aryan." The Nordics are found in
their greatest purity in the Scandi-
navian peninsula. They form a ma
jority of the population of the British
isles. In the different countries of Eu-
rope there are said to be about 9O,OOO,-
600 pure Nordics in total population
of about 42O,OOO,00O. According to one
authority, the settlement OF North
America was due to Nordics and the
early conquistadores Of the new world
represented the old Nordic eler'ent OF
Spain.
