SEESWAYTOEND | 'WHITE GOLLAR ERA Trades Must Be Given Diguity, |=c Engineers Are Told | New Haven, Sept. 9 — Speaking on “The District Apprenticeship System,” Harold 8. Falk, vice| president of the Falk corporation | of Milwaukee, Wis., today told the | American Soclety of Mechanical | Engineers, in its technical sesslon‘ at the machine exhibition being | held at the Sheffield s:;lemmc} school of Yale university that the | industrial trades must be given a| new dignity and made more at-| tractive it boys of the right caliber were to be attracted: into the dustrial fleld. Youths Avold Shop Work | “Everyone knows that the aver-| age American young man is not much disposed to go into indus-| trial work, nor can it be expected under modern conditions,” Mr. | Falk said. “The American ideal| seems to be the commercial and | financial genius, if we are to judge from the agencles which influence | the public mind. Every advertice- | ment directed towards the Ameri- can man shows him seated at a! desk in an office, The wo 13 never idealized, in fact, so many years since 3 thfeatened lazy pupils by teliing them that they wduld never be more than mere workingmen if they did not pay more attention to their school work. Parents, how- ever humble in life, will insist that their sons become professional men because sons of friends of | iheirs have become professional men and nothing less will do f their own children. Is it any won- der, in the face of this, that Amerl- | can young men do not ordinarily 20 into the trades unless they are foroed into them by circum ces? Trades Must Have New Dignity “The trades must be given a new dignity. They must be made more attractive. The personal require- ments for most trades are as high as for ordinary commercial work. The machinist is as good a man as the bookkecper and he gets as| much pay. It still remains to make | him as highly respected in the community as the boskkeeper is. Boys will not go, into the trades in sufficient numbers until they, and espécially their parents, fe that the trade work is just as desirable as clerical work; until the molder d patternmaker are just as im- portant in civie organizations and clubs — and in the eyes of the voung ladies too — as the bank clerk and the, insurance office man.” Mr. Falk urged manufacturers to unite “in one great organiza- tion” to advertise the trades and apprentice ning for the trades throughout respecti He said that people f of life mu be t prenticeship for “Agprenticeship roughly established from his earliest L wili no more of escaping an ap- ntice than escaping at- ndance at school,” he said. “All| is not mere theory. has proved by actual The metal trades Milwaukee distriet appr a number of yea mere beginn all cl to take ap- be ev 0 Ty course ip program for and, while a & has been made, the | the most extrava- ot appren- people of Milwaukee unde that the al trades shops offer a real op- portunity to young men, and boys of all classes are taking cou in the various shops. In achieving this result the industrial comm Wisconsin which administers apprenticeship of the state and he Milwaukee vocational school have been of invalua The latter institution, with a week- ly attendance of about 15,000 young | people, has been the center of the apprenticeship movement and ac- tivity of the city. There, more than anywhere else, probably, have the voung people of Milwaukee be- come convinced of the necessity of organized experience as well asor- | ganized education.” Mr. Falk stated that if Americs industries are to overcome the dif- ficulties which confront them they | must begin Ly overcoming the dif- ficulties which confront the people | cmployed in their shops. “As long as countless thousands of partly trained, dissatisfied workingmen | are permitted to drift about the country from one locality to an- other there will be labor troubles and, more than that, there will be business depressions, because in the long run the manufacturer's customer {s his employe,” he said. “If American industries are to have stéadily widening market for their wares they must build up a areat class of stable, well-satisfied and prosperous employes — men who are well educated, thoroughly trained for thelr work, who settle down, :smhlleh homes of their own, nd bring ierations into the | RCEIl blon e fauirta & Shasatraniss tics. Apprenticeship will bring this about. Apprenticeship destroy: rest and dissatisfaction Treates an interest in work. Mort over it will bring about a stability of population in all centers because cach district will produce its own mechanics and thus largely destroy the temptation to drift from place to place.” WILL RETURN TO COLL Among the New Britain your men who will leave soon for college | are: Armand .Landino, College of | Western Maryland; Emil Mucke, itice institute, Houston, Texas; | Thomas McCabe, Catholic university, | \Washington; Roger Scully, John !

There are lots of new things—probably more new things than the clothing industry has ever offered in one season. Prices are going to be a little lower in some cases, but in flenelal they \\Il be about the same as last season. $35.00 o $50.00 is the price range that makes Mags the store that fits the pocketbooks. Chief among the new things are fabrics that will give you new ideas on how long a suit should last—especially Tigertwists and Trojan Weaves, made only for the House of Kuppen- heimer and shown by us exclusively in New Britain. Styles are sensible. They will last and wear like true friends. Colors are newer, darker, rich- er, in shades of brown and blue—Chutney Browns and Banff BIUCS. The outstanding values of the season are our Kuppenheimer suits at $35.00 and $50.00. We have centered our buying power on these two groups and certainly recommend that you see them before you buy anytlling else. And if we may prophesy—we want to predict that more good clothes will be bought this sea- son than in any year since the war. So many people have told us that they are through buy- ing Cheap clothes—so many have told us that cheap clothes have been their greatest extrava- gance! Nalura“y, that is a happ) prospect for our store. Values that make no compromlse with quality are the secret of this store’s success. In conclusion may we welcome you to N. E. Mag & Sons with the assurance that you will find more to choose from than ever before— and may we also assure you that we shall be happy to serve you well—always.
