THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE “ALL THE NEWS ALL THE TIME” JUNEAU, ALASKA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 9, 1935. NIGHT SCHOOL | Pln Seventh CLASSES ARE | PLANNED HERE Trade Extension Instruc-| titon in Line with Vo- cational Prggram . ]‘ Plans for the grganizing of trade extension evening classes in con- nection with vocational education in Alaska are being made by A. E. Schoettler, new Vocational Educa- tion Superyisor. In discussing the hevening sehool program, Mr. Schoettler- gaid: “The evening school, as conduct- | ed under strictly vocational lines, is primarily a school for people who | seek additional information in the | work in which they are already em- | ployed. The instruction is therefore | known as trade extension work, ex- tending the knowledge and skill| which one has already aocquired. ““The evening school could well be looked upon as a booster type of education, meaning that it boosts, or increases, the knowledge of the worker to the point where he ‘may ‘be enabled to increase his earning Am, consequently increasing his| income. | Exchange Idcas | “The evening school may be con- | sidered as a place in which one recites or exchanges ideas, taking | y.away from each' class mew ideas| which may be useful in connection | with the daily work. Under u\,ese‘ . “conditions, the student is a learner s on the job as well as a student re- relving instruction in the avening | scheol.” Without ghe shop, or m—if’m‘ o tmet WIPAT wctual T WOFK, | evening “school instruction cannot be erfecz-‘Dem ive. For this reason evening schools | with few exceptions are known as « trade extension schools. s “How does a man learn a trade? “*By the school of experience.

During those summer months when industrial activity usually lags there has been a widespread quick- ening instead. Without going into wearisome - statistics, representative features of the case include: A sudden rise in steel production, always regarded as a leader in the vastly important field of the ‘‘heavy industries.” An even greater jump in the sale of automobiles, with no special cause discernible. { a realm where the financial well- being and general confidence of the ordinary citizen usually are reflect- An upturn in home construction,| dications have developed at a time when congress is in session, dealing uncertainly with . the most vital and when governmental spending is at a far lower level than had been expected. On this basis, an impressive busi- ness boom is forecast in many quar- ters when the normal seasonal fall upturn coincides with a congression- al adjournment and with the be- ginning of large-scale disbursement of the $4,000,000,000 works fund. The reason Administration offi- cials are not making extensive pub- lic claims is that they recall vividly the repercussions from that unfor- tunate boast of the Hoover adminl istration that prosperity was “just around the corner.” Official utter- ances on this subject are certain |to be definitely qualified. | All the same, the situation is the subject of much lively interest in | issues, the Democratic talk that the 1936 campaign is all over but the shouting.
