SCIENCE OF MANUAL LABOR TAUGHT IN
PUBLIC SCHOOL VOCATIONAL COURSES

said today. I'VE attempt to develop
our boys along general and interest
ing lines Of work until their senior
year when more specialization is al
lowed. They are then given oppor-
tunity to extend their work in some
special direction. and along some
branches which particularly appeal to
them"
At present one boy is making .
chiffonier, another = monograph. and
several tables are in the formative
stage. These articles are being well
done, and the teachers say the boys
take 2 tremendous interest in their
work.
The pattern making department is
used in cooperation with the other
departments as much as possible. Us
ually the same boys take pattern max
ing and some other industrial line
at the same time. In this way a
pupil can make his own pattern in
one room which he will use to man.
ufacture the article itself in another
class. Play ground equipment, and ar
ticles for the school, buildings of the
city are made in the high school in
dustrial classes.
Every high school boy taking this
work is also taught blue print reading
and drawing.
The teachers in these departments
of the high school are Charles o.
Mays, Ebert Vickery, W. B. Ward and
Harry F. Ross, who has charge of the
printing work.
Although not a part of the public
school system of Richmond, a good
course in vocational wood work and
relative subjects is given at Eariham
college. The work is under the super.
vision of Professor Edwin Morrison,
OF. the Earlham faculty, and about
twenty men are enrolled this sem
ester. |
Automobile mechanics, and teleg-
raphy are being offered for the first
time in Eariham this year, and are
proving very successful courses &C
cording to Professor Morrison. The
former courses of vocational wood
wook offered are: bench work in
wood; wood turning and pattern max
ing. and mechanical manipulation am
bodying work in iron, chemical and
physical processes.
Elementary photography and Ian
tern slide work is also given at Earl
ham, and included In the metal work

planning is a phase OF the work Of

The course has been somewhat
broadened this semester as new meI

are more interested in the vocational
work, the instructor says.

JUDGE IS Jailed
FOR REFUSAL TO
PAY RAIL BONDS
fRy Associated Press,

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Feb. 1.-THE
surrender OF former Judge J. S. Evans
10 begin his jail sentence for contempt
OF federal court has adQed another
chapter to the tangled history OF the
fight to compel q county IN the mis-
souri, hills to pay bonded indebteo'
ness for q railroad never constructed.
II was in 1871 that Dallas county.
with other Missouri and Kansas COM
munities. saw visions of tremendous
industrial development. Stranger ap'
peared with a pen and paper" rail-
road from st. Louis to Fort SCOTT,
Kan, and Dallas county voted $2IS,-
600 bonds az a bonus to the promoters.
The road was never built, and Dali
las county's paramount Issue" was
born when the first interest payment
fell due. In all political campaigns,
candidates for county judgeshtps have
cried, I'VE will refuse to pay the
bonds" After election successful
candidates have gone to the hills 70
avoid taking action.
The bonds eventually went to an
eastern capitalist who resumed the III
isatiou OF his predecessors to collect
interest. Judgments had been enter
ed into from time To time in federal
court. BY 1911 the principal and
accrued interest had reached S1,0ZS..
600, payment OF which would take lS
cents on every dollar of valuation Ia
the county, 1t was said.
A Judgment was obtained and the
federal court directed the Dallas coun
~ clerk to call q special election to
vote bonds to pay 10000 of the in
terest. With that action, the county
clerkship was added to the list OF
recluse OfYicialdom OF Dallas county.
Efforts to serve summons on the
iurists were redoubled. Posses Of

DEALERSSTICK
TO ONE. LINE
Uncertainties of the Motor
Business Eliminated,
Says Schooler.

I In the olden days Of the automobile
I industry the changes in dealers was a
monthly or half yearly problem for
the owners Of that particular make
of car 10 solve. The representation
Of a car in any given territory might
change over night and the luckless
owner would be hard put 70 find
place where he could get spare parts
and service.
All that is a thing Of the past. The
automobile business is no longer
game" Il is now one Of the most
firmly established businesses in the
United States. and the dealers handle
merchants in other lines.
These men are the most substan-
tial citizens in their communities now
and they command respect because
they are there permanently and do
a large business and are among the
most respected citizens in their
towns says s. +. SchoOler. sales
manager of the Motor Car Sales Co,
Hupmobile distributors
The motor car industry Is now the
third largest industry in the country
and ranks next TO the railroads and
agriculture in commercial importance
and is growing all the time
IN the early days Of the industry
there was no chance 10 stabilize
things It was a great race between
the manufacturers TO see who could
get a new model on the market first
with each new model there would
be radical changes in construction.
Sometimes the changes were made so
suddenly that the engineering depart
ment hardly had time to determine 70
its own satisfaction whether or not
they were feasible.
Times Have Changed.
Times have changed during the
last four years. Marketing motor
cars. whether from the dealers point
OF view or that Of the manufacturer,
las become a merchandising PROPOSE
ton. Changes in construction nave
been largely IN the matter OF refine
ments, nothing radical The man who
buys a car now need have no fear
that within two months the concern
from which he purchased VIII be OF
fering something entirely new.
THE dealer OF today IS as stable
and as much q fixture as the car he
represents. It is seldom that changes
IN representation are made. and then
only for the most weightT reasons
For a car TO shift from one dealer
to another does not tend TO enhance
the number OF sales prospects With
each change IN representation the
missionary work must. to a large eN-
tent be over. Owners grow accus-
toned TO dealing with one firm and
are reluctant 70 shift from one place
