a T no other time in the history
~ of man was the youth OF all
nations left so entirely to its
own meagre resources as during the
years following the industrial revo-

adaptation is notoriously blind, or, al
least, myopic.
The last decade or two has wit

problem of the youth and of labor in

high point In 1917, when the Smith
Hughes act was passed providing sew

year for vocational education OF the
young.
IL is In synthesizing the various in

words. IL essentially a combination OF
education and industry. 1t is proc

apprentice differs from the ordinary
child laborer in that he not only works

Contrary TO the popular association
OF this system with the Middle Ages

civilization. The Babylonian Code OF
Hammurabi t21o0 y. CO. recognizes
and regulates apprenticeship" Evil

among the Greeks and the Romans.

the South. trade learning was not the
only educative feature of apprentice
ship. Instruction was required in the
liberal arts as well, while in New
England the colonies required that tho
apprentices be educated In the Chris
tian religion and sound ethics. Ap-
premiership was thus not mere
means of acquiring trade efficiency
but II was a preparation for citizen
ship and for life"
The situation as II exists to-day Il
that only 40 per cent. OF the children
ever finish public school and only
per cent. high school, while "the child
works largely at jobs that are ener.

A change OF jobs is rarely change

unskilled and routine task. This con

economic loss to the employer

Swanton suicide, that of Fred Call of
Waterloo, Que, who jumped from a
bridge into the water of the Missisquoi
river early in December last year, was
recovered Wednesday about half a
mile down the stream. Two fishermen,
Gordon Haskins and Clarence Carr,
found the body floating so feet from
the shore. they towed it to the shore
and notified the authorities. The body
was in badly decomposed condition
and was taken to the Smith under
taking rooms. Immediate burial will

Alhurl bridge gang on the Central Yer

of $50 was offered for its recovery, which
it is said, will be divided between Has
