Friends of vocational training edu-
cation in Delaware are fearful that
the Legislature at Dover may consid-
er the curtailing of the appropriation
for vocational education to the extent
that the State would not receive the
benefits of the Federal money allotted
to Delaware. On behalf of the friends
of vocational education the Whining
ton Morning News says, "this would
be serious handicap to the develop
ment of an organization which is
growing up in the interest of large
group of young workers going out in
to employment in this city every year.
Without the training they would re-
ceive little definite preparation for
their occupation in life.
at has been expected that the maxi
mum Federal allotment for Delaware
next year would amount to 100000,
which sum would have to be matched
by the State or it would otherwise be
lost. Vocational education has be-
come an important factor in Whining
ton. In the vocational department
from 1918 to 1922 inclusive 5106 re-
ceived instruction in the vocational
courses, and last fall GOA students
registered in the evening vocational
school in the CITY, All kinds of in
struction are given in technical mat
tiers.
Sources of revenue have been
Federal Government, $16,120.97; State
government, s16,154.97; Wilmington
Board of Education, $9,7660O; Manu-
facturers' Association of Wilmington
$4,000. Vocational training is i'm
portant, for there is heavy deman'
for young men who have taken tn
courses in such training. Indee
many persons have often wondere
where the needed supply of machin
lists, electricians, and so forth, is t
come from, fearing that before lon
the demand will far outstrip the sup
ply. Therefore, anything that can b
done to promote vocational trainin
should be encouraged. And Delawar
should not let slip chances fairly t
get money from the Federal Govern
ment for a laudable purpose"

 Lantern Slides,
 Professor Galvez's address was il- instrated by lantern slides showing American university and college grounds and buildings including as- semhlies, libraries, scientific depart ments. and social quarters, The speak CT explained how these institutions fulfill n double function of imnarting knowledge and developing the stu- dents character. He emphasized that Individuality Is encouraged, personal ineiinations are taken into considera- ton, and opportunity is provided for the students to become acquainted at iirst hand with citizenship and the maintenance of public health.
 Teaching Stails.
 ''The members or teaching staffs, l who are themselves often trained and i informed in other callings. are not naughty and reserved toward the stu dents" Dr. Galvez explained, but i rather do they fo>er a camaraderie 1 with them. Furthermore. there is no social class distinction between college and public school teachers. The work of students is very highly developed, because every honorable performance is given appreciation, regardless of what it is
 Dr. Galvez's recital of the many types Of schools, their historical de- velopment, local characteristics and the wide scope Of American collegiate life was distinctly interesting to his German audience.

DAY OF NATIONAL SYMPATHY
Significance of Memorial Time Is That
Sorrow Is Shared by Every
Patriotic Spirit.

There is in sorrow a sacred lOneli-
ness that resents intrusion, and yet
there is longing in every human heart
bowed down, for a sense of the SYM
pathy of others. Memorial day is the
rendering to those who mourn, the
token of a nations compassion.
1t was a noble prompting that set
the day aside. 1t is not a mere formal
ity, the occasion for show of grief.
Those gone before will be remembered
daily and every grief-stricken heart
will have its private sanctuaries. But
this day the burden Of sorrow is
shared, the loss of all is commemorate
ed; the hope of all is reaffirmed.
The new graves shall have their
heaps of bloom and let there be at
least blossom for those that are
sunken and sodded The lowly and the
unmarked must have the common care.
And with the reawakened memories
of the dead, let there come q quicken
ing of the sense of responsibility to the
living. To those to whom a nations
gratitude is due as defenders let there
be lacking no just recognition of the
Indebtedness, lest the outward show of
sorrow fail of that which proves ex-
preston of sympathy genuine.-Ex-
change.

quaintance young Shrady had listened
to vivid accounts of the achievements
of the great general For some time
the form which his design should take
greatly perplexed Shrady, and well it
might, for here was to be erected q
great memorial by the congress of the
United States to cost a quarter of a
million dollars, and in the capital of
the United States, to commemorate the
victor of many battles in the conflict
for the preservation Of the Union, and
who had won the battle that ended the
war. But, inspired by the thought,
Shrady conceived the idea of a monu-
mental marble platform nearly 300
feet in length, with Ulysses S. Grant
on horseback at height OF some forty
feet in the center, two great bronze
lions on either side guarding the flag,
and a group of cavalrymen in action
on the right and a dashing artillery
group on the left With this concep-
ton he went to work nearly twelve
years ago. Shrady died, after physi-
cal breakdown from the many years of
effort in completing the great memo
rial. 1t was his lifework.
