HAND WORK IN SCHOOL

The supervisor of manual arts" in big city

It is not question of preparing them for trade,
he explains 1t is mistake to call such school activ
ties vocational work. Pupils between II and 15 are
too young to develop the skill necessary to obtain gooo
Industrial Jobs The chief reason for the training is
that at that age the children are erratic and very sus
ceptibe to outside influences and manual work pro
vdes an outlet for their developing energy and curos-
itv and keeps them occupied in wholesome activity.
The work too, can be taught in way that Will
prove useful later whether the pupils go ahead with
their studies or take up mechanical pursuits
It sounds like excellent advice. Nothing will do
more to keep boys head and heart straight than TO
have interesting work for his hands. And such work
almost equally good for girl 1t should not be con-
fined to cooking and other forms OF housework, either
in the case Of girls Every girl ought 10 learn how to
hammer nail, drive a screw, saw and plane board
and do simple painting and vanishing. Ii she can be
taught to handle and understand modern household
machinery all the better Women will have to DO that

NON-RESESTANCE

The British government has freed Mohandas
Candhi the popular leader of Indias nationalist move
ment. This may be called mere whim of the British
labor party but is probably sound policy There IS
not much keeping in jail man who does not oo-
iect to being in jail and who is regarded martyr
as long as he is confined.
In or out, it is hard for the British to known what
to Go with Gandhi Nothing IS so battling as non non
resistance In his case it proves effective than
force could be.
1t is pertinent to recall that Christianity made its
most remarkable gains in the early centuries when the
non-resstance preached by its Founder actually
practised by its followers. The Christians the
Romans burned and threw unprotestng, to the lions,
the stronger the movement grew
Which fact suggests the not altogether absurd par
adox that if Christianity were really practised by
Chrstendon warfare might possibly be ended by non
resistance to warfare That has never been tired on
big scale

GAME WITH ATLANTA
DEMOLAY CHAPTER TO
Be PLAYED HERE WE'D.
Will Also Play Game Here Satur-
day. These Games Will Be
Last of DeMolay Season
Raymond Rice

The basketball team of the Allan
ia DeMolay Chapter will return to
Marietta next Wednesday night for
battle with the local chapter The
game was previously announced as
Saturday night but it was impossi-
bic for the Atlanta boys to come so
it was put off until the following
Wednesday. However, manager
Groves announces that a good game
will be secured for Saturday night
These two games will be the last
games of the season for the DeMolay
team and the fans should come out.
The Atlanta game promises to be es-
pecially good. At the last meeting
of the two teams the Atlanta boys
nosed out victory but this time the
locals have blood on their eyes and
are intending to give the visitors
sound drubbing.
The local DeMolay team has won
hVe and tied one out of twelve starts.
This speaks well for the boys consid-
ering the. caliber of teams they have
met. Coach McLain barred none and
perhaps if he had been little more
careful in the selection of the oppo-
nents his team might have won few
more games, but victories are not
all in this life.
The Tech High Varsity, Pep Glass,
Atlanta Chapter and Mr.. Hearn and
Company are on the lost side while
such high class teams as Gainesville,
Macland, Canton are listed as victors.
All in all, it is pretty good record.
