Enrolment Increase At
Williamson Trade School

An increase in enrolment for
1860 at the Williamson Free School
of Mechanical Trades, will bring
opportunity for trade and techni-
cal training to a greater number OF
young men.
Williamson School, located in SUI
burban Philadelphia, three miles
from Media, Pa, offers young
men of good character" who are not
financially able to attend college,
three year program in technical
and related academic courses. App
lications for the 1860 term, start
ing in SEPTEMBER, are now being
accepted.
Expanded facilities at the school,
opened last September with the de-
dication of a new division, the John
Wanamaker School of Artisans,
provided opportunity for increasing
the schools faculty as we'll as stu
dent body. Also for those boys who
qualify, post-high school courses or
training on the craft-technician
level is now offered. Ten boys in
the current senior class are en-
rolled in this accelerated class, due
to high achievement in their first
two years at Williamson. A science
building, four shops and techni-
cal library are all included in the
new facilities.
One of the oldest trade schools in
the country, Williamson, was est
ablished in 1888 and provides free
board, lodging and instruction to
an accredited academic program,
courses in the following skilled
trades are offered: machine shop,
carpentry, painting and decorating,
bricklaying and power plant opera
tion
The school is situated on a 242-
acre campus and lists a wide pro-
gram of sports and extra-curric-
ular activities, including glee club,
band and activities clubs in its
curriculum. Almost $500 students
have been graduated during it's 70
year history, many of whom hold
positions of leadership in the nat
ions industry.
The prospective student, upon
application, is asked to submit a
transcript of his school record to-
gether with the report of a physical
examination by his local physician.
If these are satisfactory, the can
didate is notified in April to appear
for examinations which consist of
standard mental and mechanical
comprehensive tests. Students ap-
plying are given the entrance ex-
aminations in May, and if able, to
meet the schools standards, are
interviewed in late June. Approx
imately seventy-five boys will be
admitted to the 1860 Freshman
class in September.
John G. Boyd, Assistant Super
intendent, invites all inquiries to be
addressed to him, and upon re-
quest will send the applicant an
illustrated booklet, outlining Will
iamson's full program and activi-
ties.
The schools address is: Middle

THE TRAGEDY OF BEING
SIDE-TRACKED
"This one thing do--not these
forty things dabble in"

"This one thing / do--not these
forty things dabble in"
/ had a hearty laugh the other
day at a little parable / chanced
upon in my reading. ! am not so
sure but what / may have laughed
to hide a bit of the sting the par
able struck home to my heart as it
pronounced me guilty of the very
conduct it aimed to censure. Let
Us look at the parable together
and perhaps it will hold court over
you, too. Here it is:
A dog named Tray was observed
one day in pursuit Of a big black
bear. When the distance between
it and the object OF its chase had
been materially lessened. a wolf
cut across the dogs path. AT once
it forgot the bear and started after
the wolf He had nearly captured
his prey, when the noise made by
this race of death startled a fox
from its lair, and Tray. seeing the
fox, forgot the wolf and went pant
ing madly after this streak of red
as it sought refuge in bit of TIM
Der just ahead of them. Ere he
caught the fox, however, a rabbit
was frightened from a nearby pile
of brush, and Tray left the fox and
chased the rabbit. Next little
mouse crossed his path. Again he
was diverted from the object of his
pursuit and started after the mouse.
The mouse ran into hole and our
poor dog Tray barked himself to
death at a hole in the ground. He
had started after big things and
wound up with nothing, tragic
victim of being side-tracked.
And l am brash enough to ask
if your conduct makes you to be q
moral kin of this dog Tray? AS
for myself, l am ready to acknowl-
edge that / have been frequently
guilty in the direction in which
Tray failed. So listen my can
dor is lin the confessi onal: On more
than one ccasion-lOOking back
from my retirement to my years
in the ministry mapped out for
myself a systematic course of stu
dy to better equip myself for the
great task of preaching the Word
with interest and power, but ere the
course was carried very far, my at
tention and time were diverted tc
lesser things. On more than one
