THE junior
CLASS PLAY

Home talent plays in Grand
Rapids are always well patron
lied because the people know
they will receive their moneys
worth in real enjoyment. The
Junior Class Play, a college farce
entitled GA Strenuous Life" was
creditably presented Thursday
night at Daly's Opera House,
which was crowded to its capa-
city. Miss Margaret Raglan had
the direction of the play and the
drilling of the young people. The
results speak for themselves and
to her ability as stage director.
The young people who took
leading and minor parts all did
nicely and the play as a whole
was creditably presented and
greatly enjoyed.

LEADING
The Two Most Popular Lines Of
Training for Disabled Soldiers
Being Re-Educated.

Washington, D. C.-Out of 787
cases of disabled soldiers approx
ed for retraining by the federal
board for vocational education,
agriculture in its various bran
ches is not first in numerical or
der, as is generally supposed.
One hundred sixty-five cases
have been awarded courses in
commercial colleges, fitting them
for office work and business ca
reers generally. Agriculture
does come next with 1877 cases
which are divided up into the
following: agronomy, one; ami
nal husbandry, ten; dalrylng,
three; farming, one hundred
fourteen; poultry raising, six;
truck gardening, three.
The majority Of those who
took the agricultural courses are
not, as popularity supposed, men
who have suddenly become con-
verified to the beauty of agricul-
ture by reason of exercise in
trench digging in France, but
nre farm boys who have realiz-
| ed the benefit of a more scientific
knowledge, and who are deslr-
Gus of returning to their old
home places and apply the prin-
ciples of scientific agriculture
and management.
In addition to the agricultural
courses, four are taking horti-
culture, three landscape garden
ing. and one bee culture. In the
main, this education is given in
the land grant colleges of various
Estates. The student is allowed
