TRADES FOR ALL
SCHOOL BOYS
Vocational Department to
Enlarge Fall and Winter
Course at High School
GOVERNMENT
GIVES SUPPORT.

The Wilmington Board Of Educa-
tion is planning to enlarge the field
Of training in the vocational depart
ment OF the public schools. This ex-
tension has been made possible
through the cooperation of the State
Board for Vocational Education
operating under the Federal Smith
Hughes act. The cooperative part
time plan has become so popular with
the employers. and with boys who
wish to learn a skilled trade. that
many new trades have been added
to the department this year. A boy
can now learn almost any one Of tho
skilled trades on the co-operative
part-time basis. The cooperative
part-time is an earning while learn
ing plan. operating on the basis Of
half time in employment and half
time in school, Casually alternating
every week or every two weeks.)
This plan in learning a trade has
some particular outstanding advan-
tages, in that the apprentice gets his
trade training in the industries un-
der actual production conditions.
and under good foremen, as we'll as
receiving wages for. the time spent
In the industry. In school he gets
technical instruction such as draw
ing, science and mathematics. which
Is related strictly to his trade. and
taught by technically trained men.
There is no better scheme of training
devised for the average boy to learn
a skilled trade.
Most of the employers require the
boy TO be 16 years of age before en-
tering training on the part-time
basis. and any boy from Il TO 16
years of age. who will not enter high
school can enroll in the prevoca-
tional course. which is preparatory
to cooperative training. Arrange
ments have been made this summer
with employers to employ a number
Of boys on the cooperative plan,
and the vocational department has
now many more positions open than
boys to fill them. All boys who are
planning to enter a vocational train
ing course should enroll this week.
Dr. early next week at the vocational
office, High School Building.
