broke loose in several rounds of an
plause. The school is just a little dis
appointed in the banner, they had hon
ed it would be a pennant, which they

In spite of the refusal of Congress
to grant the needed money, the United
States weather bureau is doing more
than that of any other nation, thanks
in part at least to volunteer and un-
paid for aid. 1t has 205 stations OF
the first order in which a salaried
personnel is maintained and approx
mately 5000 cooperative stations
where observations are made by per-
sons who are willing to aid. Mex
leo and Canada furnish accurate and
prompt weather observations in re-
turn for similar service.
The value of the weather forecasts
is probably not to be measured in
money. Seamen are warned OF
storms, cities told to prepare for
heavy SHOWS, farmers are advised OF
conditions which win affect harvest
or planting and stockmen and fruit
growers of coming cold waves. The

peatedly as to its appreciation OF the
timely warnings which have enabled

Builders to Get
Standard Lumber

The home builders of America are
assured the production of standard
lumber and standard products main
tanned by the entire force of the in
dustry as a result of third general
conference called by Secretary Hoover
to complete yard lumber standardiza-
ton.
The elimination of unnecessary and
often wasteful sizes has been effected
through this cooperative effort; the
number of actual finished yard
lumber items will have been reduced
nearly so per cent and by fixing def
nitions of basic grades a firm founda-
ton has been established for grade
equalization.
The problem of Standardization of
lumber sizes and grades has been be-
fore the lumber industry for many
years. Recently many have re-
emphasized that the wide variation
in regional practices as to size, grad
ing and names has reacted to the dis
advantage of the user, retailer. whole
saler and manufacturer and that sane
Standardization offers promise of in
creased economy. profit, stability and
markedly better service.
The Secretary of Commerce called
general conference of more than 100
representatives of all interests in the
lumber industry. which wah held in
Washington in May, 1922. A second
general conference was held in July,
1922. and the third general conference
has just completed the work.

Vocational Work
Grows In Interest

Vocational education, which is one
of the biggest new developments in
the educational system of the United
States, is attracting attention through
out the world. A number Of foreign
countries are using trade schools in
the United States as models. An IL
lustration of this is found in a re-
quest forwarded by Harold L. Smith,
American vice consul at Malaga
Spain, to the United States bureau OF
education.
He points out that city authorities
with leading citizens, are planning
school for training boys to become
carpenters, electricians, mechanics
railway trainmen, plumbers, brick
layers, road builders and contractors
Certain classes also will be given for
girls. 1t is proposed to model the
Malaga school after trade schools in
the United States and to equip 1t
with American products. Trade pub
