 The cooperative course with the Tour tellotte Memorial High school has been established this year. The plan is on the same basis as that of the Putnam High School cooperative course, 1900 hours being allowed for high school work. Transportation facilities will be arranged to enable the students to be carried regularly to and from the trade school.
 The Connecticut trade schools are un- der the direction of the state board of education, through the director of voca- tienal education, and are maintained by state funds.
 The Putnam school numbers in it's en- rollmsnt students from the toWns of Windhan, Thompson, Pomfret, Ashford EaStfords Plainfield and Griswold- The law applying to trade schools admits students from towns in which no trade school Is maintained on the same terms as students admitted to high schools from towns in which no high school Is maintained.
 Besides filling the need of educating boys and girls in the various trades, Jse schools are doing a very good work in | re-educating returned disabled soldiers. The state of Connecticut, through the

which they are employed. Evening courses, fer all trades are run from October to May each year and es- pecially appeal to men in the various trades and industries who wish further knowledge in their chosen line. In addition to these types of courses, in all trades teacher training classes are organized an run through the winter
 months under the instruction of the trade school director.
 These classes afford tradesmen desir-
 ous of becoming instructors, an oppor- tunity to train in this work. Those sue
 cessfully completing this course are granted certificates by the state board of education.
 It is worthy of note that eight years before the Smith-Hughes law was pass ed by the 64th congress in 1917, the Connecticut trade schools had been car rying out all of the provisions required by the act.
 The outstanding feature of trade edu-
 cation is that all instruction proceeds from the concrete to the abstract In
 this way the students more rapidly de-
 velep theory and practical ability.

SIX METER YACHTS
TIE In FIFTH RACE
Point Score: Great Britain, 973
America, 72, With Little
Chance for Latter.

Special CobIe to THE NEW YoRK HuzALH
Copyright, 1921. By THE New York HERALDs
CowEs. Isle of Wight, Aug. s.-The
fifth heat of the six meter yacht race
off the Isle of Wight to-oay ended In
tie, each side scoring eighteen points.
This, however. was disastrous for Amer
lea, as Great Britain Is now leading
by a score OF 81 to 20. and unless
Americas four boats at the finish In
the final heat. win the first four posi-
ttons the United States will have lost
the series. In other words. America
must score twenty-six points more than
the British in order not to lose.
To-day's event furnished excellent
sport with the Jean, which was holed
in a collision Friday. ready for the
starting gun. A good westward breeze
tested the finest sailing points of the
competitors.
The British again got away best, but
the Americans cut down this British
advantage when the Grebe, working up
from last place to second, was beaten
by only eighteen seconds by the Polly.
The Sheila also sailed beautifully, pass
ing the Flya and the Victoria for third
place The Victoria, sailed by Sir
William Burton. of the Americas cup
fame. took fourth place. The Montauk
beat the Jean for fifth place and the
Jeanie was hopelessly last nine minutes
astera the winner. The Polly's time
was 2:40:2
The Americans have been showing
vast Improvement as the series pro-
gressed, but the big advantage gained
by the British in the first races is now
almost impossible to overcome.
