In one of his articles published in
the Atlanta Georgian, DR.. William A.
McKeever, one of the best known
writer's on sociological subjects, tells
about the formation of "a League of
Parents" that was organized in a GER
tain town to help bring up the
boys of the households represented
by the members of the league.
II seems that ten boys of the four
teen-and-fif year ages had formed
club and started to run at will upon
the city streets and into many a Sc
cret rendezvous. They were accum..
ulating trashy library of Wild West
stories and an interesting stock of
six-shooters. They were also making
rapid progress in the art of swearing
and staggering, when their fathers
and mothers suddenly conceived the
idea of calling a League of Par
ents."
One parent from each family came
in as delegate" to attend this
strange conference. Some of them
at first were inclined to treat the
matter as a sort of joke, but its Sc.
rious and interesting aspect soon
came to the surface These questions
were raised among the group:
Do we know nough about our own
boys?
Do we appreciate their point OF
view?
Do We ever try to make our home
a club center for them?
Do we attempt to make their gang
interest motive for getting their
assigned homeland school work
done?
At length after much discussion
these ten parents worked out their
fourteen points in a new and sig
nificant League Of Families seven
for the homes and seven for the gang
as follows:
l. 1t is our duty to study the boy
problem in general and that pertain
ing to early adolescence in particu-
lar.
2. IT is our desire not to oppose
the club interest of our young sons
but to make use Of them in con-
structive program of guidance.

Truck Driving Elevated to
Dignity Of Science and
Those Proficient May Get
Commissions.

A new field of opportunity will be
opened to American collegians short
ly through the Introduction of a
course in instruction for motor trans
port corps units in the reserve Off
GERS training camps of the United
States. The course lifts motor truck
operation to the dignity of a science
and in effect will provide thousands
of students with the knowledge that
will fit them not only for actual op-
Grafton OF motor units but for en-
trance into the field of highways
transportation as economists and
men skilled in administration.
Arrangements looking to the inau-
guratiCn of the work are now under
way by the training branch of the
motor transport corps of the war de-
partment in Washington.
The course is divided into two
broad divisions, that of military and
military. Under the first the
student will be given grounding in
military work which will carry him
through from elementary subjects to
advanced motor vehicle engineering,
field work, transport corps mainte-
nance, administration, etc.
The second branch includes Tx
usual basic studies such as mathe-
matics, English, languages, chemis
try, etc, and manual work consist
ing of pattern making, forging, shop
work, applied mechanics, machine
design, surveying, thermodynamics
and similar subjects, together with
a study of business law, accounting
public speaking, foundry work and a
number of other topics which will
serve to make the student proficient
in the various lines of endeavor that
are called for in the various branch
es of motor vehicle operation.
In addition to the foregoing it is
planned to develop an elective course
which will take into consideration
economic surveys of territories for
highways transportation. operating
costs. road development, finance and
history.
The entire treatment of the sub
iect is founded upon a purpose OF
preparing men for possible military
service and at the same time for an
attractive commercial field devel-
oped as one of the offshoots of the
war
1t is felt that out Of the course will
came large body of men equipped
for efficient development of high
ways transportation, whose services
will be much sought after by owners
of motor transport lines and also by
communities desirous of developing
their highway transportation facili-
ties to the utmost in a sound, bust
neSS-like manner.

COLLEGES To GIVE
TRUCK TRAINING
Four Universities Approved
AS Centers For Courses in
Motor Transportation by
War Department.

Four universities have asked for
approval and have been accepted as
centers for courses in motor trans
portation by the training branch Of
the motor transport corps of the war
department. A representative of the
corps has been asked to submit the
course to the faculties of some IL or
Is other colleges and there is every
indication that next fall will see re-
serve officers training camps prepar-
ing students for military and COM
mercial life in educational centers
all over the United States.
The universities approved thus far
are: The University of Georgia. at
Athens, Ga. the University of Ten
nessee. Knoxville. Tenn, the Virginia
Polytechnic Institute at Blacksburg,
Va. and the Mississippi A. & M. at
College Station, Miss.
The course embraces four year
study in academic, scientific. me-
chanical and legal subjects designed
to fit the students for motor truck
operation whether for peace or war
in addition an elective course in
highways transportation has been
submitted to the highways transport
committee of the council of national
defense, Robert G. Hargreaves, for
merly secretary of that body, and
other experts for criticism and sug-
gestion. Upon approval this will be
made a part of the course to round it
out.

"In view Of the greatly stimulated
interest in highway development in
this country it is interesting to note
that both France and England are
far ahead of us in their adminiStra-
ton of road funds" said Mr.. Chaplin,
France, for example, has recently
appropriated $l52, ,ooN,ooo for the
repair and upkeep of $4,000 miles
OF roads and the national govern
mont, which has always retained full
control OF the construction and
of main highways, has
gone IL step further and has taken
over the secondary system as we'll.
This is in direct contrast to our
present plan Of operation, which III
effect distributes a sum of $273,-
000 900 over Il threc-year period or
any part of 2,50O,0O0 miles of road
which local authorities may deem ad-
veahle, thus dividing control and
spreading expenditures over an
enormous mileage.
"A technical committee has been
anpointed to determine the kind of
material necessary for each type Of
road and it is also probable that
there will be Il reclassification of

"Thc French problem is, of course,
more acute in 4 sense than ours since
