Too Many Men in College.

100 udHy NAcH III SohCSS.
When President HOPKINS of Dart
mouth says that too many men go
to college he is literally correct,
although he adds nothing that is
essential or wise when he says that
.'the opportunities for securing edu-
cation by way of the college course
are definitely privilege and not a
universal right"
Whether college course is priv
ilege is not the point. Whether it is
a universal right is not the point.
The point is, should time. money, en-
ergy and material be spent indefi-
nitely to no purpose by tens of thou
more than at the farm, the steel
plant or the art studio?
Too many young men go to college,
and their numbers are on the marked
increase, because there is no more
profit in trying to give a college ed
ucation to man that is incapable of
receiving a college education in the
proper sense and of making use OF
college education as it should be made
use OF than there is profit in trying
to make opera singers out of base
ball players or steel out of ginger
bread.
Too many men go to college be-
cause too many foolish parents do
rot want their sons to be good car
penters when they are best fitted to
be good carpenters and might, as
good carpenters. become big and shin
ing figures in the building world;
do not want them to be good black
smiths or gardeners or other work
ers, as the case may be, when that
is what they are cut out for and
could make a success at--possibly a
notable success.
Too many men go to college be-
cause when the man that ought to
be a carpenter and could be a very
4 fine carpenter comes from college,
with or without his degree, he does
| not want to be very fine carpenter.
He would rather be nothing than a
very fine carpenter. and nine times
out of ten that kind becomes and
remains nothing.
Probably some college educators
VIII answer that when the average
man first apears at college there is
no sure test that will show whether
he ought to be aiming to become a
tailor or surgeon, plumber or a
lawyer. He will maintain that the
best a college examination can do
is to determine whether a boy has
sufficient education and intelligence
to profit by the pursuit of more adj
successful in establishing even that
much.
But the stern fact remains that
human material good for something
should not be allowed to go on for
years making itself good for nothing,
in the way that is becoming noto-
rious in colleges. This is not the way
in banks. in railroads, in great indus
trial plants, in we'll administered
business houses. Either the man
seeking the higher post in such fields
makes good or soon gives promise of
making good in the lower posts lead
ing up to it, or he is put at some
thing else in some other place where
he can become useful.
Foolish parents and foolish sons
with their eyes fixed on a college
course to the exclusion OF everything
else, as the solvent Of all their trou-
bles and the guarantor OF all their
dreams. may learn better when the
colleges themselves teach them the
truth. Anyhow, the colleges should
work out the problem Of preventing
the great human material wastage
which Is affiicting the country because
too many men go to college.

United NINE WORKERS SUED
est Virginia Coal Operator Seeks
Damages for Organizations Re-
fusaI to Sign Agreement.

Suit for $4,000 damages based on
he opinion in the famous Coronado
ase was filed in Circuit court at
Clarksburg, w. Va, against the United
Mine Workers of America by III. M.
Sipe, Clarksburg coal operator. Sipe
contends that the union has persist
emily refused to sign an agreement
with him and that as result he Is
unable to work the Miller mine near
Wilsonburg The refusal Of the union,
it Is said, is based on the fact that the
Miller mine Is under direction of the
Hudson company, which operates an
other mine on a nonunion basis.
With the filing of the suit, attach
ment proceedings are made on all
check-off funds in Harrison county.

LABOR AWARD
MAKES TROUBLE:
Carpenters Refuse to Abide by
Decision of Jurisdctional
Board.
FEAR BUILDING TRADES WAR
Trouble Would Affect Many Large
Cities if Effort Is Made to
Force the Carpenters to Ac-
cept the Award.

Decision Of the national board of
jurisdictional awards giving metal
trim work to the sheet metal workers
will be supported by the building
trades department Of the American
Federation of Labor, the Building
Trades Employers association of
Cleveland and presidents of every In
ternational building trades union, with
the exception of the carpenters, 1t was
announced at Cleveland, following a
two-day effort to settle the long
standing dispute.
A statement signed by John Donlin,
president of the building trades de-
partment, and Dwight l.. Hoppingar-
ner, executive manager of the Build
ing Trades Employers association,
pledged themselves "to fill our obliga-
tions to the national board Of juris-
dictional awards and to do our part
in making it's decisions effective at
once"
1.-The trouble in question:" the state
ment continued, "has been caused by
Tie ldIuIc VI Tic SdIpCuICIS AAtCl-
national union to stand by it's agree
ment and fulfill it's obligations to the
national board Of jurisdictional
awards"
Union leaders said the statement
set the stage for national building
trades war. centering at Cleveland,
and perhaps also at Pittsburgh, but
affecting many other cities, to force
the Carpenters union to abide by the
jurisdictional boards decision.
Lined up against the carpenters,
which is one Of the most powerful of
the building trades unions, besides
the 16 other international building
unions, would be the Associated Gen
eral Contractors, the American In
stitute of Architects and practically
all other organizations identified with
the industry.

DRIVER DEFT AT
SHIFTING Gears
Az Motions With Levers Must Be
Made Deliberately and With.
out Undue Haste.
Il 10 q Serious Mistake 70 Permit Car
to Gain Too Much speed Before
Changing comblnations-
Good Method Outlined.

One Of the marks Of a good driver
IL the manner In which he handles
the gear shifting lever. OF course.
the design Of the clutch has a great
deal to do with easy gear shifting.
but even with this advantage GER
tain amount Of practice is necessary
in order to shift the gears deftly with
out noise or clashing.
The transmission Ia made up Of q
series of gears, mounted on the main
shaft and the countershaft, with the
idler gear mounted on the transmits
sion case. The flrsts speed. second
speed and reverse combinations are
simply three sets Of reduction gears
with various ratios. to give the mo-
tor a greater leverage against the
driving mechanism when required.
High speed Il direct drive, which
means that the propeller shaft re-
wolves at the same rate Of speed as
the motor crankshaft. The various
gears are brought into play by moving
the gear shifting lever to the proper
positions.
Power 10 Disconnected.
When the clutch pedal is pressed
all the way down the power Of the
motor IL disconnected from the trans
mission system, which releases the
pressure Of the gear teeth against
each other and makes 1t possible to
shift the gears easily. Also, when
the gear shifting lever is in neutral
position the power Il disconnected
from the rear driving mechanism. be-
cause none Of the transmission gears
are In mesh.
The whole theory Of gear shifting
may be summed up ip the statement
that the two gears about to be meshed
should be revolved slowly and as
nearly as possible at the same rate
Of speed. II one 10 revolving much
faster than the other It Is difficult to
shift without clashins.
How to Get Good Results.
It Is q mistake. for the above rea-
sons, to let the car gain too great q
speed before shifting into a higher
combination. The following method
will be found to give good results:
With the throttle closed and the
spark lever about halfway down the
quadrant 80 that the engine idles
slowly, throw out the clutch and put
the gear shifting in first-speed posi-.
ton. Engage the clutch slowly, al
the same time pressing down on the
accelerator pedal gradually. Let the
car attain speed Of about four OF
five miles an hour and then throw out
the clutch, removing the right foot
entirely from the accelerator pedal
Push the lever slightly forward into
neutral position. then clear to the
left and forward into second speed
Let the clutch In gently, as before
and accelerate the speed of the cal
to about eight or ten miles an hour
when the clutch should be again dis
engaged, the foot removed from the
accelerator and the gear shifting lev.
er pulled straight back into high speed
position.
All Of these mottsas should be mad
deliberately Witheut hastn.
