the ones to kick if there is a
kick coming, and not you people.
Think for a minute what IL
we quit''-then what? You men
of DETROIT can not fall
back on that saying. I'VE HAVE
A FAMILY" That don't go,
because we have families, too.
You people of Detroit work
eight hours a day, sleep in a
soft bed, go to the movies, drink
beer, and go to dances. That
is just one-third of what we
don't do (but some day we

TT BODIES well for the postwar
L future of the country that there
has developed among educators a
nationwide interest in proposals to
make the colleges and universities
more practical.
With institutions of higher educa-
ton temporarily virtually bereft of
all male students, there will be need
for reconversion of these cultural
centers after the war.
In view of the critical problems
of national reconstruction which will
challenge young people, it is becom-
ing self evident that education for
usefulness is in order.
The chief executive of woman's
college, President Bancroft Beatley
of Simmons College in Boston, has
aptly restated the detectives of the

Expansion of Work-Study System
In Maryland Planned
By ALEXANDER CLIFFORD


u NOUS educational system in
vented by DR.. Herman Schneider of
the University of Cincinnati, Mary
lands state school system has put
practical education" into being in
eight counties, has six more ready to
go with the plan, and eventually will
expand it to embrace the entire state.
In Maryland they call the plan
"work-experience," in which the
students of senior classes, and in
some cases third-year classes in the
high schools, 60 to school three hours
in the morning, and at p. m. 60
to work on practical jobs of their
own selection, EARNING MONEY
WHILE THEY LEARN.
John j. Seidel, assistant superin-
tendent of education in Maryland,
said the SYSTEM ALREADY is
WORKING WELL IN EIGHT
COUNTIES, with ], 432 students en-
rolled
The counties which already have
the system in working order and
functioning are Allegany, Caroline,
Dorchester, Hartford, Montgomery,
Prince Georges, Washington and
Wicomico.
Those which definitely will start
next fall are Anne Arundel, Balti-
more, Cecil, Kent, Queen Anne's and
Worcester.
The enrolment will pyramid, Mr..
Seidel believes, as the students,
teachers and principals become more
"sold" on the idea.
THE system is simple and practi-
L cal. Students enrolling go to
school at 9 a. M, eat lunch at noon,
and at l p. m. they are at work in
some Job of their choice, obtained for
them by the schools work-experience
co-ordinator, job where it has been
determined in advance that employ
ment conditions are good, wages
fair, and learning conditions ex-
cellent.
The student obtains credit not
only IOT Tile IIlI6c IlOuIS WOIh III
school, but he also gets credit for his
work-hours.
Mr.. Seidel said:
$50 far every one concerned has
been enthusiastic, hence we shall ex-
tend the plan as soon as possible to
cover the entire state.
"AlmOst all of our boys and girls
have been invited by their employers
to make the part time arrangement
full time job after graduation.
"The enrolment is growing by
leaps and bounds. Even some of our
students who are planning to 60 on
to college have asked if there is not
some way they can get in on this
new type of practical education"
w ANTING to see how the new
w plan actually works, went to
Blandensburg High School, where
the plan has been in effect only one
year with rs boys and girls enrolled.

SELLING TO ClNDER BLOCk/
MANUFACTURE.
Mrs. Frank X. HALEY, former
head of the schools commercial de-
partment, who has been made CO.
Ordinator, and who is immensely
thrilled over the new type of educa-
ton, said:
"These boys and girls made more
than $4,000 this year."
Gardner Shugart, county super
intendent of education, seemed un-
reservedly in favor of the plan.
T. S. Klein, principal of the school
admitted he had been "from Mis-
souri," He said:
~They had to show me it would
work. But with a COORDINATION like
Mrs. HALEY, it had to succeed. / be-
lieve the quality of the co-ordinator
is the central cog in the success or
failure of the plan"
We went about, watching the
boys and girls on their jobs all aft
ernOOn.
Marion Dudley, a vivacious red
head of II with a dimple in her chin
and twinkle in her eye, was MAX
ing SIP week learning to be book
keeper at the Maryland Audit Co. in
Hyattsville. She said:
"My brother drives me to work
after lunch.
"It's great to learn this work
practically while studying it at
school. l take a bookkeeping course
at high school, too.
"And I'm able to make and have
my own money, buy my clothes and
everything. It's wonderful"
She's been invited to make it
full time job after her graduation.
The foreman in the shop where
Robert Cannon is learning to be an
auto mechanic said
"This is a fine boy and he's going
to make a good mechanic"
Robert, 16, and up to his neck in
the CRIME of a busy auto repair shop,
grinned happily at the praise.
There was Arthur Broy, 10, who
had been working spare time at
big laundry as bundle boy, and get
ting nowhere rapidly. He said:
"This year since enrolling in the
course, I've learned nearly every job
in the dry cleaning department."
The manager admitted that Ar
thur "knew his stuff"
Russell Montfort was in a news
paper composing room, learning the
printing art from A to Z.
Highly successful in retail sell
ing at a big store in downtown
Washington were Adrienne King
and James Phelps.
The final grade these boys and
girls will get at the end of the year
will depend on two things-Mrs.
Halley's rating and the grade given
by the employers.
The new experiment, it was OBJ
vious, is working we'll at Bladens-
burg Highland next year will be
working even better, with more en-
rollees learning the new way, and
earning while they learn.

TO THE EDITOR:
IN YOUR letters to the Editor
i I read one from boy is who
claims war workers are money
mad people and should be
taught lesson.
1 agreed with his opening
statement that 16- year olds
should be seen and not heard.
But later on I decided that
maybe the boy should talk so
he can receive some decent in
struction on the subject.
In answer. / give him a look
at a check for a weeks work:
Gross pay S56.s7; withholding
tax $3.50; old age SIC: hospital
insurance $3.50; war savings
bonds $3.50. Net Pay $3.50.

clothing. Now does that sound

al cried for the want Of shoes,
TILL I met q man with no
FEET" So in way we are all
very lucky.
PLEASE, think OF America"
as a whole, not as you and you
alone.
Remember, UNITED WE
STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL"
and we can not be united if the
people of Detroit are pulling in
the wrong direction.
When you die you can not
take money or a car with you,
but you can take with you a
curse and that curse will be the
curse of a million people. Who
knows, maybe a curse of the
WORLDLY Poor Detroit!
So, People of Detroit, think
TWICE before you jump in the
frying pan.

TO THE EDITOR:
THE remarks of 1t. Mcclure,
l. 1t. Long and Sgt. Nagel ex-
press my feelings and those of
all the fellows in my outfit to-
ward strikers and strikes.
II will indeed be a pleasure
when this war is over to help
open the fourth front against
those responsible for deliber-
ately prolonging the war.
We believe the swastika
would be a fitting emblem TO
carry at the head of any picket
line at this crucial stage of the
war.
AS stated by the aforemen-
toned writers, OUR day will
come. A SOLDIER.

TO, THE EDITOR:
THE eviction OF a young
i mother from her home as
per your paper Of June Is
leaves one to wonder where
our civilization has gone.
Has it gone with the BOYS
over there and do we have TO
wait their return before ii will
assert its self here again?
Please Mr.. Common Council
do something to rectify this in
Justice and see that ii does not
occur again.
The name Of DETROIT has
become a SYMBOL of fairness
all over the country so hold
this name up above a SCAN
DIAL.
