It would be an apprentice- ship which would provide the best kind of training and serve the double pur- Dose of being of Immense value both concerned. Apprenticeship is the main reliance of industrial training in Germany and Dr. Holmes Beckwith who has made & study of the German system declares “mo better way, or even as good has yet been devised for the main training of the masses of industrial workers than in the shops where they are em- ploved and by those who supervise their work” Revival of the appren- ticeship system alone. however, will not solve the industrial problem. A broadening of industrial training such as will supplement the narrow range of skill and knowledge and give the specialized worker greater resource is needed. Just whether it will be found prac- tical to institute such a training will have be determined by careful s ¥. The need of stimulating inter- est in the government service has been felt and there s no better way of cre- ating it than by holding out induce- ments which will no? only make the men more valuable to the service they are engaged in but which will make them more valuable to themselves. to LINDSEY AND THE RECALL There was no stronger advocate of the importance of the recall than Judge Lindsey of Denver and now that he is being made the object of attack in that city because of th¢ manner in which he has been conducting h court cases more than ordinary inter- est is attached to the outcome. It simply shows how much a law can be operated to the detriment of the best interests and how It cam be brought into use for the enemies of the pesple against them. It mav be natural that being on the side of the people that he should be made the ob- ject of attack for the purpose of be- littling his position and his stand, but it will afford him the opportunity of again demonstrating that decency will triumph. Upon that element rising to his aid depends his vindication. The charges against him are that he conducts his court too loose, that of fenders of certain kinds are let off *vilh too light sentences and that indica- tions of an influence of judge over jurfes In his juvenile court are evi- dent Judge Lindsey Much of the opposition against is unquestionably 0. Mtical but the harm which that can do with the,recall in their possession is enough to make even such a strong advocate of it as he has been, easy. He has a problem on his ha to prevent himself being made ar ex- ample through the bringing into oper- atlon of his own favorite measure. DRINKS AND SMOKES. Though it has not checked the year Iy increase in the amount of liguors and beer consumed and the cigarettcs and cigars smoked, the agitations which have faithfully been conducted against them have unquestionably had thelr good effect. Education into the evils which ‘lurk in such indulgence has resulted in constant addition to the ranks of the abstainers. The pon- ulation of the country has been show - a ing a constant increase, however, when the past year's consumptio of spirituous lquors showed a galn of seven and a half mY llon gallons and beer comsumption in- to the extent of a miilion ha . much of this gain §s attributable to the natural increase in population but the marked increase in consump- tion of such drinks ameng women plavs an important part in the additional business for the distillers and the brewers. Where this consnmption be indicated from the a decreass by takes place mav fact {hat the year show. 15,000 in the number of salnor through agitation and state legisia tion. With the cigar and cigarette therc were large increases, the cigarette showing an increase of nearly three billion while the output of cigars in- creased nearly a quarter of a biltion.

Happy thought for today: It takes a circus performers to demonstrate how a little can be made to go a long way. There isn't o much need of inves- tigating the atrocities of Bulgarta as there is in putting an immediate stop to them.

Before he had descended the steps Preston was minded to go back and apologize, but he felt sure that the breaking of the engagement would be 2 sharper lesson thin any argument. Somehow he did not faré well when he argued with Kitty. She never lost her temper and this always put him a a disadvantage. The announcement that Katherine Bilicott was to sell her kisses at the t. Mark's fair had its intended ef- fect. Kitly was the of her circle, and more than one un- fortunate swain wondered why she did not demand at least $5. There were many who thought it would be well worth more than that Kitty. The fact that it wa: Thurman Preston had broken his en- gagement because Kitty refused to withdraw her offer added to the inter- est and before the fair opened Kitty's kisses were the talk of the town. Thurman had not meant to attend, but somehow he could not stay For one thing there was alw hope that Kitty might repent rumored that too well to believe that she would give up. now. He was one of the first to put in an appearance, and as he entered almost his first glance fell upon a curtain recess over the entrance to which was a sign_reading:— KISS, BU r TELL. It was bad enough to think of Kitty kissing all who were willing to pay a but that curtained room the last straw.

Some of the railroads say that they cannot stand the increase asked for and that is an important point to be welghed before there is any strike. While a large majority of the men favor quitting work, there are quite a number who are opposed to it. and this is another point to be considered. It does not seem probable that a get together conference would fail to settle this whole question—New Britain Herald. It looks like a good, sensible, practi- cal move for the Government to meet the criticisms of Federal meat inspec- tion by temporarily appointing special inspectors—picked men from outside the Government regular service—three college professors among them—ex- perts in bacteriology and sanitary en- gineering, to find out what they can about the methods and practices em- loyed, and judge of their efciency.— tamford Advocate.
