GRADUATES TURN TO
 PRACTICAL THEMES.

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 22.- A very practical question which prom
 ses to be generally discussed by high school and college graduates this spring Is the economic and social value of industrial training. Interest
 in this theme is evidenced by the large number of letters being re-
 ceived from all parts of the country
 by the U. s. Training Service of the
 Department of Labor. This branch of the government has been in com muntcation with all the high schools in towns of 2,5OO and over, in the
 United States and with all Ameri- can colleges and is supplying them with especially prepared information on industrial training for use in writ ing graduation essays and oratIons. The widespread interest in indus trial training carried on in manufac-
 turing plants. with the advice and
 counsel of this government service,
 indicates that school graduates of the present generation are turning to very practical questions for their final school-day discussion.
 Letters of inquiry to the training service show that the question of industrial training appeals especial ly to young people in towns and cities where there are manufacturing plants-communitie where industrial problems are very real and close at hand. The prospective graduates evi- dence a desire to relate their dis cussions to questions of immediate practical interest. The success which
 has accompanied the establishment of training departments in more than 300 plants in this country furnishes a wealth of material possessing hu-
 man interest and scientific value for use in the orations and essays.

ANTI-BmnBoARD MOVEMENT.

IL Is interesting to note the growth
 or sentiment against advertising bill boards, and of legal opinion that this
 form of advertising is subject to sta
 tute law, as recorded in a pamphlet
 just issued by the American Civic Association.
 The Supreme Court of Missouri was among the first legal autnorf- ties to give encouragement to the movement when the majority of the court assented to an opinion contain ing this statement, in a case grow ing out of regulation of billboards in St. Louis: My individual opinion is that this class of advertising might be entirely suppressed by statute without offending against either the state or federal constitutions"
 In 1917 the Supreme Court of the United States upheld an ordinance 1 in the city of Chicago governing bill ! boards. This ordinance forebade the i erection of billboards in residence i districts, except with the consent of
 the majority of property owners of i the block. If billboards can be pro- | hibited in residence districts of cities 1 why not on country roads that are l disfigured by their presence.
 A notable step in this campaign
 was taken at the last election in the
 State of Massa chusetts, when the vot-
 CTS agreed to a constitutional amend
 ment giving the legislature power
 to pass laws regulating advertising in
 public places and on private property within public view.
 1 Merchants who use this form of ad-
 vertising may well consider the growth
 of sentiment against it. The Ameri- 1 can Civic Association in this cam paign emphasizes the idea that the
 value of real estate is unfavorably l affected when billboards are erected
 upon 1t or in close proximity Ii
 would not seem as if business peo- 1 pie could advance their interests muct
 by using a form of advertising which
 is objectionable to the public.
