WHAT is "ELECTROTfCHNICS?"

What is electrotechnics? 1t is new
profession. 1t is e combination of the
practical and the theoretical in cleo
tricity.
The electrotechnician knows enough
of the theory Of electricity to inter
pref the plans, ideas and designs OF
the electrical engineer. He knows
enough OF the practical to accomplish
what the electrical engineer lays out.
He is a very useful member of the
electrical world. Boys that have COM
pieted their grammar-school courses
take up electrotechnics, study and
work and do very nicely in it. In three
years they can graduate as electro
tcchnicians.
If the young fellow has been to
high school two years, and has seven
units to his credit, he can get his
diploma from the electrotechnician
course in eighteen months.
Many of the larger concerns are
placing their electricians under the
supervision Of observation-disclosures
Many plants employ electrotechnicians
to superintend their equipment
There is room for thousands Of
young men to study electrotechnics
The industries will easily absorb

and anything but juicy, and the out

But the government should keep up
the bars and head off the rush of un-

FLIRTING
WITH DEATH

One of the most pathetic poisoning
cases in the history of this country
has just been brought to a happy close
by the recovery of the innocent vic
tins.
A Detroit mother, in a moment of
insanity or otherwise, administered
deadly mercury to her two little daugh
tiers with the intention of ending their
existence.
They were saved, however, by the
prompt action and heroic efforts of a
physician-and are now calling for
the mother who is behind iron bars.
The lesson is one which should be
taken into every home.
There is entirely too much freedom
in the manner in which people are
permitted to purchase drugs of a poi
sonous nature.
In a majority of homes you can find
these poisons standing on pantry
shelves, in bath rooms, or in other
places.
Invariably they are within the reach
of children who know not that death
turks in those innocent looking bot
ties.
1t is the acme of carelessness, and
comes dangerously near to criminality.
Death dealing drugs should not be
purchased at will. They should be &C
cessible only thru the medium of a
practicing physician, and then should
be kept under lock and key.
The person who employs these drugs
with criminal intent should meet with
swift and drastic punishment common
surate with the crime, and no maud
lin sentiment should be permitted to
interfere.
Flirting with death has become en-
tirely too frequent in this country.
1t is time for the punishment to fit
the crime.

ELECTRICAL INVESTMENT
RUNS HIGH into BILLIONS
RAPIDLY BECOMING WORLDS
GREATEST INDUSTRY.

The growth of electrical investment
is amazing. 1t is r wv in the billions.
Edison says that in five years there
will be forty billions in electricity.
Other authorities put it much higher.
IF it is not nearer two hundred
billion in five years, l shall be aston
Ished," says man who has given
much attention to the industry.
Every nation is investing in electric
ity. Every part of the earth is coming
under it's influence.
THE railroads are making their
plans to electrify. Already large cit.
les have demanded identification Of
the rails entering their limits
THE electric trolley is destined to
go into every nation Electrically
driven machinery is rapidly taking the
place of other machinery. The use of
electricity in advertising is increasing
by leaps and bounds. Electricity In
cooking, heating, lighting is increas-
ing amazingly The city which thor
oughly and scientifically lights it's
streets by electricity is not only the
safest and most attractive, but the
most prosperous.
I'm the development of electricity
for manufacturing purposes the indus
has made really astonishing progress.
The use of the electric motor is al
most universal. In abatement of the

TEACHERS WIN STRIKE
FOR INCREASE

Minocqua, Wis.-What is believed
to be the first strike of school teachers
in Wisconsin occurred here-and the
teachers won.
The teachers were working under
contracts that provided for a salary
of $50 a month, but they declared
they were unable to live on that
amount owing to the heavy cost of
food and clothing. They demanded
$40 more a month.
= The directors refused the increase
insisting that the contracts must be
carried out. When the teachers failed
to appear at the school the directors
yielded.
