The plan of the exchange is that the pupils are to be “learners” employed by master work- men, who will have practice at their tra while they are being taught principles in the school. It has been demonstrated that in some trades at least the learner thus systematically taught and given opportunities to prac- tice may developed into o skilled workman more economicnlly than where he is left to pick up a trade, or even where an effort is really made to give him instraction in the shop. The purpose of the trade sehools of the build- ers’ exchang the Philadelphin Ledger, is to make better workmen, and its tendency should be to elevate the trades andeenable the men to command higher wages by reason of the skill, 5 wus to have heen expected, there is opposition to the establishment of these schools on the part of some of the trade he says of Philadelphia, but this is not likely to deter the exchange from car rying out the purpose upon which it has decided after long deliberation. Such | opposition, based as it is upon narrow h motives, will not be sustained The fact and self by intelligent public opinion, is that overybody who has given this question of trade schools thoughtful and unprejudiced consideration hus veached the conviction that something of the kind is absolutely necessary 1o reseue the youth of Ameriea from idleness, to put our industries ina position of independ- ence of forcign skilled labor, and to prevent the decadence of mechanical in- genuity and inventive talent among us. The apprenticeship system having pr tically disappeared, wha American bhoys to do in order to obtain a vespe able subsistence? They cannot all go into the professions, the ranks of which are now overcrowded, and in all com- mereial employments the supply is very largely in excess of the demand. The youth of the country must learn to worlk, and as they are not allowed to become nothing is left apprentices in the old w v to be done but to give them such opportunitics as the trade schools afford, Next in importance to educating th minds of American hoys is the duty of educating their hands. We must live, if we live honestly, by dabor of some sort, and there is no graver injustice than to exclude a boy from a vocation to which ns talents lead him. Whenever this is done both the individual and so- ciety ave injured, for the man who is not permitted to freely exercise his natural ability is deprived of the use of capital which would benefit not himself ulone, but his fellow man as well. The gravity of the question of making provision for the mechanical training of Am youth is only just heginning to be r ized. It will grow upon the intelligent thought of the country as the ranks of unemployed young men increase, who in their hopelessness will recruit the army of criminals. The records of erime show that in recent years the number of American-born criminals has alarm- ingly increased. This must continue to be the case at a more appall- ing rvate if our boys are turned loose upon the world without the knowl- edge that will enable them to earn an honest livelihood and become self-re- specting men. There is very certain to come a decisive reaction from the pres- ent state of affairs, and meanwhile the trade school, properly conducted, should be encouraged. It will hardly prove to be a thorough remedy, but it is a valua- ble step in the right dirvection and if it should become general could not fail to give material relief. u NATIONAL PUBLIC BUILDIN It has been proposed in the present congres that the government shall lopt the policy of constructing build- ings for itsownuse in all cities and towns of the country where the postal certafn annual revenue, There has also heen introduced a large number of bills providing for the construction ¢ public buiidings in cities where there are none, or wh ornment business has outgrown the ea- pucity of the old buildings, The more than usually large demand for expendi- ture in this divection has encountered a strong opposition, and no proposal of a public building anywhere can now e made without meeting with an unreas- oning hostility which takes no account of the necessity behind the proposal or of the practical advantages to be at- tained. Tt is doubtless true that in the general vush for building appropriations some of the demands ave extravagant and a few may not be warranted by the condition of the public business, But it may safely be that in a majority of eases the buildings asked for, particu- lurly in prosperous and growin, are required, and that for the most part no ter appropriations are for than ave deemed to be necessary to pro- vide for the future expansion of busi- e The great fault of has always been in paring down this class of appropriations instead of gnuging them with reference to the probable growth of .
