Spoke To Rotary
On Manual Training
Carl Perry, Instructor,
Gave Interesting Discourse
On Hand Work of Wood, Metal

Carl Perry, instructor of indus
trial arts in the public schools, in
a talk before the Rotary Tuesday
noon presented a history of manual
training and it's value as part of
the school curriculum. He stated
that this course of study started
in Sweden, and that hand work
with wood started in the United
States in Philadelphia.
In trade training or industrial
arts, said Mr.. Perry, it is not the
purpose to turn out finished artis-
ans, but to give the student oppor-
tunity to learn that there are per-
sons who can use tools expertly. This
training does give them an idea
of how to handle tools, make things,
etc., but does not provide sufficient
training to hold down a job. He
said, the course could be called
exploratory as it can provide some
idea as to what the student would
like to do when he leaves school.
Mr.. Perry mentioned the various
divisions in manual training under
wood work and general metal work,
and said there are many branches
which could be taken up but are
not now taught. He invited Rotar-
ians to pay a visit to the depart
ment next year, when manual train
ing will have a larger shop, a bet
ter arrangement and new equip
ment. His talk was interesting and
instructive and greatly enjoyed by
the Rotarians.

The editor was rather surprised
when informed that a mistake had
occurred in the story of the cream

stead of forty gallons per hour, the
flowage Of the new well is more
than forty gallons per minute. That,
of course, is a more satisfactory

The Body
Ability to Play One
Game Well Is of
Social Value
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY,

Fortunate are American girls be-
cause they have so wide a choice
OF sports to amuse them, and to
keep them physically fit. More and
more popular young things OF every
community 60 in for tennis, golf,
bicycle riding, badminton, handball,
bowling and other games which may
be played out in the open. Groups
are forming pleasure clubs whose
activities center around out-of door
life. This is one of the most note
worthy trends of this era.
1t isn't the competition of a game
which attracts feminine devotees,
but its social value. IT you are young
and you play one of the games men,
toned above, wherever you go you
will meet other devotees. Your
ability to play one of the out-of-
door games we'll is your ace trick!
And each of US must have an ace
trick up our sleeve If we wish to be
a social success!
I know many young girls who
have not made the effort to indulge
in sports. They do not play this or
that, they don't ride or swim; in
fact, they have developed no inter-
est in anything which will bring
them naturally into a. group of
young people. These girls wonder
why they are not popular, why they
find themselves so often alone
What do they expect? If you have
a talent or accomplishment which
you may share with others, you will
belong. If you have not developed
one, you Will not belong.
| In most towns and cities play-
grounds are available to young peo-
pie, and only small fees are charged
for tennis courts and golf links. If
a girl saves her pennies she can
buy a bicycle, tennis racket, golf
clubs or whatever is required to play
the game which attracts her. Ger
tainly every girl can manage some
how to get bathing suit If not q
riding habit She should choose q
sport within her means and enjoy
that.
Aside from the social value, such
games are splendid means for
keeping healthy and beautiful. I dc
not recommend that girl excel in
football, softbaIl or basebalI-pr any
other game which might overde-
velop her muscles. No. A girl should
play game for the enjoyment she
derives from it, and the stimulation
Our bodies were meant for ac-
tivity, and as long as civilization
has robbed us of opportunity to use
them in getting our food and car
ing for ourselves generally (such as
in primitive tines we must resort
to sports to keep our contours firm,
our muscles elastic and our blood
coursing through our veins at a nor
NAL pace.
If you lack the desire to enter
sports, check up on your health
Perhaps you are overweight and
your body wants to lag behind. Per-
haps your feet need attention, or
your blood needs building up. What
ever is the cause, correct 1t, and
make this summer one Of enjoyment.

Dorothy Dix Says
Couples Should Never Permit
Themselves to Drift Apart

One of the great tragedies of
marriage is that when most hus-
bands and wives come to middle
age and their children have left
them to go about the business of
life for themselves they find that
they are not even close friends.
They are strangers who have merely
a speaking acquaintance with each
other.
The husband has no knowledge
of what his wife really thinks and
feels, of what her secret hopes and
desires are than he has of any
woman he casually meets. He finds
that it is harder to keep up CONVEX
sation with her than 1t Is with a
woman at his right or left at a din
ner party. He doesn't know most of
her woman friends by sight and he
has no idea of how she spends her
time, or how she has developed in
the Is or 80 years in which they
have dwelt under the same roof.
The wife, on her part, is equally
unacquainted with her husband. 1t
has been so long since he was any
thing but papa to her and the good
provider who kept the family soft
and comfortable that she has for
gotten that she was ever romanti-
cally in love with him. All she sees
in him now is fat man, growing
bald, who lives in world of business
of which she knows as little as she
does of the heart of darkest Africa,
and who has strange and incom-
prehensible personal peculiarities
that she calls Johns ways and
doesn't even try to understand
The result is that these two bore
each other to extinction. There is
never any difficulty in picking out
