nation from the point of world con-
quest, the thought of which is TAX

that is an impossibility for them, be-
cause they lack financial backing.

THREE.YEAR HONEYMOON
Couple From India Now Touring the
United States.

With more than two years Of hon
eymoon travel before them, Mr.. and
Mrs. j. K. Mehta, wealthy landowner
of Bombay, India, arrived in Denver
recently. The couple are native Par
sees, the upper class of India, both
keducated in English universities in
Bombay. They were married in Bonn
bay last February and Immediately
started on their honeymoon, schedul-
ed to last three years and to include
q trip asAs1d che world.
They are accompanied by Mr.. and
Mrs. T. r. Cana, also of Bombay,
and two servants. The party has al
ready toured China, Japan and the
Hawaiian Islands and landed at San
francisco in July. After a trip up the
Pacific coast they started eastward.
The bride was clad in her native
costume and her husband was cloth
ed Immediately after the English
fashion of dress.
.We like Americans" spoke the
bride in perfect English
aYes, supplemented her husband.
I'VE like them for two reasons. First,
because they are so courteous and
obliging, and then for the beautiful
country which they inhabit." Q
I've expect to devote two years to
visiting the Western Hemisphere,
said the bride, "and will spend the
greater part o. the time in the Unit
ed States.
taThere is a ciass-the poorer class
of India-wherein the women are not
allowed to show their faces in pub
lie. They are practically slaves to the
men, and so poor. They never take
any part in public activities and are
very ignorant. The American mis-
sionary is doing a great deal for this
class, but, of course, their religion is
not ours and they are not popular
with the upper class.
ave are of the Zoroastrian belief
a great deal like your Christian re-
ligion, except that we offer all pray
ers to the one God through the me-
dunn Of fire. There are fires in the
churches Of Bombay that have moi
been allowed to go out since they
were brought from Persia 1,20O years
ago. But none but a believer may LOOK
upon these fires; they are the EN-
biem of the faith.
aThere are many Americans II
bombay, and a few are of the Zorro
.astrian faith. There are some of oul
faith in this country, and we vii
visit those before leaving for home.

EXPECT MORE
STUDENTS In 1920

The vocational training course FOR
boys, newly-established as part OF the
High School curriculum this spring, is
developing very satisfactorily under
the supcry isiOn OF Edward W. Rhodes.
Through the courtesy OF George l..
Coppage, OF the Pusey and Jones Com
pany, actual practice in work at the
Pusey and Jones shops was given TO
the boys taking the vocational course,
in addition TO their textbook and lab
oratory work at the High school.
10 had been planned 20 start the shop
work i'm February with the inaugura-
ton OF the new course. but the seri-
Gus illness OF Mr.. Coppage prevented
the shop classes from being put into
practice until April The previous
months were devoted to academic
work.
The new course has worked out
smoothly and well. The coordination
OF the school studies, mathematical.
scientific and economic subjects, with
actual training in various departments
has proved perfectly practical and
highly successful. The iG boys who
were the pioneer students in the new
course have shown great enthusiasm
for the work and will continue the
course next year. They have been a
credit TO themselves and 20 the school.
Other cities have been watching the
progress OF the vocational course in the
Wilmington IIigh School with consid-
cradle interest, and feel encouraged by
The results 10 emulate the example Of
this city.
