. Promote Industrial Education Last year a survey for vocational education was made in Richmond. The scientific analysis of local conditions and the recommendations of the experts are contained in a report which has been published. It is one of the most comprehensive and illuminating volumes about the needs of Richmond that has come to our, hands in many
months. The vocational surveys that have been made here and in other Indiana cities places the state in line to share in the federal money which is to be expended for the vocational training of pupils.

of Labor; David Snedden, Former Commissioner

The Smith-Hughes Bill's title states its objects thus:
"To provide for the promotion of vocational education to provide for co-operation with the states in the promotion of such education in agriculture and the trades and
industries; to provide for cooperation with the states in the preparation of teachers of vocational subjects; and
to appropriate money and regulate its expenditure."
The National Society for the Promotion of Industrial Education has submitted the following statement: The United States Government will help Indiana carry out recommendations of the vocational surveys. The Smith-Hughes bill which now is assured of passage in Congress and the signature of President Wilson provides federal aid for
promotion of vocational education. Chas. H. Wmskw, Director 6f the Indiana Vocational Surveys, is interested in a program of legislation to provide state money in sums at least equal to the federal grant to Indiana each year, so as to assure the state the benefits to be had from the federal grants. The National Meeting called in Indianapolis this month, February 21-24, to discuss Indiana's vocational problems calls attention to the fact that Indiana is better prepared than any other State in the Union to take advantage of the Federal grants. Indiana is the only state which has made a state-wide vocational survey. The results of the survey will be discussed at the vocational convention by speakers of Na-
The law will provide annually. increasing appropriations, from now until 1925, and a stated appropriation every, year thereafter, for co-operating with the states in paying salaries of teachers, supervisors and directors of agriculture, trade and industrial subjects, and preparing teachers of agriculture, trade and industrial subjects.
The amounts in each of these three divisions are $500,000 for the first year, and go as high as $3,000,000 in 1925, and for each year thereafter. Government figures show that Indiana will re
ceive a total of $43,900 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1918. The total amounts for each year thereafter, to be received by Indiana as federal aid under the three divisions of the law are: 1919 $ 64,380 1920 84,860 1921'... 102,400 1922 117,000 1923 .. 131,600 1924 ;. . 146,200
1925 . . . : . 175,400 1926 & 27 ... . . .... 204,600
The Indiana Vocational Surveys place this state in a position to state its needs intelligently when it asks for its share of the federal aid. It
is expected that the forthcoming convention will
mature plans already under, way.

MURRAY , Otis Oliver and his Players were seen to advantage last night in "The Common Law." The company gave a splendid performance and attractive stage Bettings pleasing to the eye made Robert Chambers' story one worth seeing. Mr. Qliver announces tha4 "Polly of the Circus" will be given for three days starting next Monday. He has sent to New York for the original production and the play will be given in its entirety. "GYP8Y LOVE" Melodious "Gypsy Love," romantic comic opera gem that Franz Lehar has given the world as a successor to his "Merry Widow" is to be presented here by a brilliant aggregation of New York opera stars, and with a pretentious Andreas Dippel production at the Washington, on Saturday. "Gypsy Love" musically is somewhat like "The Merry Widow," but with richer score and a greater number of selections that became popular
hits. Its music is claimed to be of
such wonderful quality that Mr. Dippel has been compelled to send with the company an expensive orchestra of specially chosen New York musicians. The story is a romantic narrative, liberally besprinkled with comedy, of a maid of noble birth who loves the woodland better than the mockery of palace life. In her forest wanderings she meets a gypsy troubador. She is enthralled by "Joz3i's" violin and is about to fly with him when warned by her old nurse to beware of the jure of gypsy vlove.5 The nurse induces her " to drink of the magic River Czerna and the clairvoyant waters reveal to the maid what life with her gypsy sweetheart would bring. The dream comprises the entire second act of the piece. The shallowness of gypsy love is shown to her, and in the third act she is seen fleeing back to the arms of her real lover.

" ... , - ' -"And at last she was free -free to give herself unreservedly to Robertfree to surrender herself to her love for him. CHAPTER III A Pair of Schemers - It was nearly half past twelve before she arrived at Sir Maline's house in Portland Place. All, the native servant, opened the door. He bowed low before her. "Will madame come this way?" he asked in his peculiarly low and yet staccato voice. He was a very tall man with a curiously dignified face end a splendid carriage. His snowy livery, and scarlet turban, with its embroidered heraldic device in black and gold, made him an impressive figure. Rachel was placed beside her host.
The table, oval in shape, was of beautifully polished oak. There was no cloth on it, but in each guest's place there was a small embroidered doily. There were orchids in a strange, silver jar in the center of the table. Ali, standing behind his master's
chair, directed the' waiting of the two footmen, whose fresh, English faces bore 'a hostile expression whenever the Indian spoke to them. The two other guests, beside Lady Torrens and Robert Fane, were Mr. and Mrs. Tony Bramham. Society had in vain endeavored to discover this extremely good-looking couple's means of livelihood. They went everywhere they were received even by the most exclusive set They had a flat in Queen Anne's
Mansions, and ran a little week-end "cottage," which contained ten bed
rooms and five reception-rooms.
And yet "Tony" had never been known to work, and his people were
enviously and openly quite poor, and
his wife had been the daughter of a
well-born but penniless colonel on balf pay! "How they 'do' it I can't imagine!" their friends exclaimed when they
saw them Tony immaculate, and his
wife one of the smartest women in the enclosure at Goodwood or Ascot For some years they had been great friends of the famous specialist. "Back from the Cape, aren't you?" Bramham asked Robert languidly. "Last month. We had an awfully decent passage home." "Glad to be back, I expect. Beastly hole, Africa! I was there once. Only thing I brought back was the fever. Ever had it?" "Twice. The doctors over there told me it always recurs a bit when one Irst gets home." "In this climate, everything recurs, my dear chap; but I tell you, if you get it again, you call in Gorde. He's really a nerve man, of course, but he's discovered an absolutely marvelous remedy for fever. He was telling me about it only the other day, curiously enouga." ""Really? Thanks for telling me; I'll remember," said Robert Like most very strong men, he hat
ed illness, and was apt to be rather r
nervous about himself.
"Shall we remain a happy party or
must we despatch the ladies to the higher regions of the drawing-room?" Sir Maline asked with a smile.
Let us remain ' together," Lady
Torrens said briskly. "I have always
noticed that even a stupid woman will
exert herself to be pleasantly amusing
in the presence of men; and though I bring no charge against either Miss Ford's wit or Mrs. Bramham's mental capabilities; I prefer to take no risks in my old age." All began noiselessly to hand the coffee and liqueurs. "Creme de menthe, Benedictine, anisette, cognac, sir?" he murmured into Robert's ear. ' i - "Cognac please." . Sir Maline idly watched the man pouring out the liqueur. Bramham watched him, too, In an almost furtive way. The slender, brown fingers deftly uncorked the little bottle, there was a musical clink of glass, and the liqueur was placed beside Robert. The other two men preferred Benedictine. ' Across the table, Robert's eyes met Rachel's. A lovely color flooded her pale face. Gorde, looking at her, clenched his hand suddenly. He rose abruptly and suggested, that they should go to the mnsic-room. To be continued

Dear Editor: The time has come for the taxpayers and school patrons of the township, outside of Richmond, to act in one conccerted effort to have the new. township -high school located in the center of the township. We must stand shoulder to shoulder to defeat the plans of a few who seem to be determined to have the school located at their own door to the utter disregards of the other people all over the township. V Will you kindly print the accompanying resolutions and urge that the people get busy. Let each of us make it "My business" to see that the remonstrance is circulated. A protest to the trustee and advisory board. - Whereas, It seems to be a fact that Wayne township will build a new high school building in the near future and the patrons of District No. 10 have petitioned that it be located at the corner
of School and West Fifth streets, Whereas, that is noiNa central location and is not easily accessable to the majority of students In Wayne township. Whereas, there is not sufficient
ground at that location for an agricul tural high school and many other un
surmountable conditions, be it. Resolved, that we,r the undersigned patrons and taxpayers of Wayne township, are united in asking your honorable body to erect the new high school in a central location, either on the Tenth Street road or on the Middleboro Road.

Editor Palladium:
With surprise and disappointment I
reaa tne editorial on military, ednca.
tion which appeared in your paper on Feb. 13. Is it possible that well informed men still believe, in the face
oi au tacts to the contrary, that military drill i3 better for the development of the youth of the nation than
the wholesome athletics now employed. If this were true, allow me to ask.
wny would all military training schools, army headquarters and navy
yaras De supplied with the most up-to-date, type of gymnasium equipment? And why are the men in such establishments compelled to take strenuous setting up exercises to offset the damage done by the military drill? In the military training a man or boy is taught to obey not because It is right nor because he knows thaf what he is told to do is necessary but because some one, who for some unexplainable reason has been set over him, tells him to do so. - He becomes in other words'a mere machine, with no instinct but to obeyr be punished severely. The game which in the editorial, mentioned were so seriously objected to teach the boys and men to think clearly and quickly. Through the
eligibility requirements the boys are given an interest in obtaining ' good grades. Who after careful consideration would say that the sports which teach" the boys to "play fair" In life are not as'good as the training which instills in them the desire to kill their fellow man?
Above all .things, military training destroys the -feeling of democracy which has been built up after such
tireless effort by the authorities in the schools. If our nation is to remain a place in which freedom and equality
