colleges. As a result we furnish all the draftsmen and chemists for the city, and have done so for years. Here tie students some day will no doubt, want the entire building." Questions American Education. Mr. Shuey spoke of the reputation of Americans as being the best educat ed of all nationalities and questioned it. Ninety-five out of every 100 boys and girls attending school,, he said, leave at the age of fourteen and but one in every thousand finishes college The vast majority of the boys and girls leave the schools at "fourteen years of age and go to work in the factory. "They come out of the schools absolutely knowing nothing. The schools do not teach the students how the; brain may be a help to the hands. Aren't we a well trained lot of men," in concluded in ridicule of the idea. The vast majority of the people today do not choose their own trade but fall into it because it offers a job. "Do you not know that this is responsible for anarchy and breeds dissatisfaction," said Mr. Shuey. "Too much success has been founded in the factories of our countries not from men but from the work of the boys and girls. We manufacturers aave built our marvelous success on ' our boys and girls because of the lack 1 of preparation for business. Our future successes will be built on the labor of skilled mechanics. Men are now beginning to specialize and prepare themselves." Training is Needed. Mr. Shuey declared in Germany, where the men have excellent training for life's work, but do not seem to have the energy and ability to get out of the steps of their fathers, the German manufacturers were importing American foremen ,to instill American push and energy. The German manufacturers realize that if American laborers had the German training America would control the markets of the world. Mr. Shuey stated that "Thanks to the Y. M. C. A. association this was about to be accomplished. Your public schools cannot do it because there is too much politics In them. It depends on the Y. M. C. A.'s" lie advised the young men of this city to take immediate steps toward starting a class in some course of training they desire. Endowments for Y. M. C. A.'s Christian men of today are pouring their money into colleges to teach one out of every 1,000 boys and girls. Mr. Shuey asked if the other 999 boys and girls were not just as deervinp. He felt that the endowments should be given to the Y. M. C. A. just as freely as to the colleges. "Not that we care the less to the colleges for they are alright but that w-e care more to the association," said the speaker. Said Mr. Shuey, "Bring the instruction of English into the Y. M. C. A. and cut out the grammar. The association is the source by which to reach highest development." He concluded by stating "Men of Richmond I will pray that the, day will come when you will realize you did not have faith in your enterprise and when your mistake in not making a larger institution will be brought home. The opportunity is always ours if we will, take it. God gives it to us." The Paragon. "Oh, tut!" ejaculated Mr. Honister when Blnks had got through with his hard luck story about the difficulties of housekeeping iu the suburbs. "That kind of talk makes me weary. The everlasting tonmyrot about not being able to keep a cook more than a week ought to be dropped. Why, the cook In my house has been with me for going on sixteen years. She not only cooks the meals, but does all the marketing, looks after the grocer, the baker and the Iceman.. She pays the bills and never once has even suggested giving notice. Wbafs more, she looks after the children, darns their socks, mends my shirts when they need it, keeps my buttons sewed on and" Til bet you give her all sorts of privileges," retorted Blnks. "Yes." said Hollister. "She entertains company in the parlor, has the use of the piano whenever she wants It, takes a day off whenever she pleases, wears my wife's clothes, and every now and then I take her to the theater with me." "You do?" roared Blnks. "Well, what does your wife say to that?" "Xothing," said Hollister. "Shs Is my wife." Harpefs Weekly. FK to Kill. Grandma's guest was elegantly but simply dressed in black chiffon voile handsomely trimmed with silk over lace. Little Birdie, aged four, climbed on her lap and patted the many gray hairs and smoothed the soft lace and silk, then peered lovingly into her face and said: "You're dressed up good enough to be killed, ain't you 5" Delineator.

THREE CHANGES ARE DEMANDED

Indiana Manufacturers and Shippers Insist on Revision of Shipping Laws. TO ROUTE AS DESIRED. THIS IS ONE OF MOST IMPORTANT FEATURES OF DEMANDASKS ROADS TO ABIDE BY TARIFFS. Palladium Bureau. Indianapolis, Dec. 29. Three important changes in the federal shipping laws are demanded by the Indiana Manufacturers and Shippers' association. The committee having legislative matters in charge has decided to send letters to forty-two states and to hundreds of individual shippers asking their support to the proposed changes. To Route as Pleased. One of the most important features of the demand is that the shipper shall have the right to route his shipments as he pleases. Under the present system a shipper in Indiana, for Instance, who ships goods to the Pacific coast, may send the goods to Chicago over any Toad he may select, but from Chicago on to the coast he has no say as to the route. The first road routes the freight out of Chicago as it 6ees fit. This, the shippers say, enables the strong lines to starve out the weaker railroads and places the shipper at the mercy of the big roads who may delay the shipments as much as they like, and the shipper Is without redress. Must Abide by Tariffs. Another demand is that the rules be so changed that when a road, though an agent, posts a tariff that is lower than the published tariff the road must stand by the posted tariff until it is revoked. The third change proposed is that whereas now a road is compelled to give thirty days' notice of a change In tariff and a shipper has no right to protest until the tariff is in effect the rule should be. that the shipper could protest at once without waiting the forty days. A CHARITY PATIENT. The Price He Had to Pay For Expert Surgical Treatment. The famous surgeon Velpeau was visited one day at his house during the consultation hour by a marquis renowned for his closeness. Velpeau informed the marquis that an operaj tlon was urgent and that the fee would amount to 4,000 francs. At this the marquis made a wry face and left. A fortnight later Dr. Velpeau, while making bis rounds in the Hopltal de la Charite, had his attention attracted by a face that seemed familiar to blm. In answer to his inquiry it was stated that the patient was a footman of a nobleman In the Faubourg St. Germain. The surgeon found that his ca?e resembled In every particular the somewhat "unusual one for which the marquis had consulted him a fortnight previously. He refrained, however, from making any comments. Three weeks after the operation, when the patient was about to be discharged, Dr. Velpeau called him aside and ex- . claimed: "Monsieur, I am extremely ! flattered and pleased to have been able to cure you. There is, however,- a small formality with which you will have to comply before I can sign your exeat that is, you will have to sign a check for 10,000 francs In behalf of the public charity bureau of your metropolitan district" The patient's face became livid. "You can do what yon like about it," continued the doctor, j "but if you refuse all Paris will know tomorrow that the Marquis de D. i adopted the disguise of a footman In order to secure free treatment at this hospital and to usurp the place which belongs by right to a pauper." Of course the marquis paid. Argonaut. The Storm Nose at Sea. The picturesque name of storm nose (Gewltternase) is given In Germany to the wave of high barometric pressure t which often precedes a storm or a heavy squall. The barometer rises suddenly and then falls more gradually. It Is believed that this phenomenon Is responsible for sudden changes in the level of the sea. Observations on the seas surrounding Denmark have led to the conclusion that the change of level thus produced sometimes amounts to no less than three feet. Youth's Companion. The Devil'. Knell. Among the famous bells of Dewsbury, Yorkshire, England, Is one known as "Black Tom of Soothill," which was presented to the church in expiation of a murder. "Black Tom" is always rung on Christmas eve. Its solemn tolling as it strikes the first tap at exactly midnight is known all over Yorkshire as the "devil's knell," It being the notion that when Christ was born the devil died. London Standard.

INSTITUTE IS NOT PLACE OF DISPLAY, SAYS PRES. KELLY (Continued From Page One.)

the library method. There is better method in the modern Sunday school for there some attempt Is made at classification. There is better method in the modern university extension course for there the instruction is not externalizedthe Instructor's Interest and the student's interest are Known to be the same, and the student ussumes an active attitude toward work. There is better method in the modern business college, for there the work Is not whol ly detached there is some genuine and prolonged effort. A method of in struction which disregards the activ ity and functional phases of the consciousness of the student, which makes no attempt at classification, which largely leaves out of account specific student's needs, and which at best is operative but one week in fifty-two. is scarcely to be commended from the standpoint of instruction. Perhaps the best solution of this problem would be to admit and insist that even with well-nigh perfect tech nique not much can be expected of the institute along the line of instruction that its chief function is inspiration al. Concerted Movement Aid. But if there were a concerted move ment there could be some Improvement along the line of instruction. If the number of professional instructors were reduced one-half, there would be ' a great gain. The average sized and bmaller institutes do not need more than one professional instructor. Such ' a change would eliminate the unwhole-1 some competitive element and the tparhlnir function rould havft somt od- t portunlty. The Instructor could circulate outlines In advance, based somewhat upon local conditions and could maintain some degree of continuity 13 the work. The management of the Institute could provide for some real sequence from year to year. For professional work the present division of teachers into classes A, B, and C, would assist in the classification. During the other periods or before the other sections home talent would be used. Most of the counties of the state have material in abundance able and ambitious teachers, whom such recognition would encourage and whose work would bear rich fruit. The larger institute would need more professional instructors, possibly, but everywhere our programs are over-crowded. The holding of the institute after the school year opens, would assist in some instances in making the work more vital. Our institute method has become crstalyzed, and it will take some courage and some concerted effort to rise above it. but what other function does this section have than to work such a reform? It is certainly possible with the fine material we have to work with in Indiana, to introduce real pedagogical movements into the county institute. tncouras'ing the Boy.

Not Tarh CONGRESR NOT TO RAISE SALARY QE THE PRESIDENT (Continued from Page One) heads of big present-day corporations. The government also malntalus tha executive stables, keeps the Whits House grounds in order, supports tb greenhouses that the presidential table may be supplied with flowers uu the occasions of entertainment, and provides an allowance for traveling expenses. On the other hand, entertaining which is distinctly a public function and entails the biggest Item of yearly expense, must be paid for by the president himself. Whether be aves from or exceeds his salary is something that must be controlled by the chief executive. This la an anomaly which has Impressed Mr. Roosevelt, and he is of opinion that if congress would provide a proper sum for entertaining, in addition to the salary of the office, it would be only fair U the president. Big Military Display. Two big features of the Taft inaugural ceremonies will be the military display and the presence in the parada of governors representing the principal ststes.
