When Eddie Stinson, aviator, was alxiut to take off from the Detroit airport the other day, a young fellow about 20, wearing a toboggan cap and carrying no baggage, asked him. for i "lift." "Sure!" replied Jtinson. "Hop on." So he hopped on, and they hopped off.; Landing at Raleigh, N. ,C.', ('00' miles, distant, a few hours later, the passenger casually r.sked where he was, and with a word of thanks strode r.way.

TEACHING FOR JOBS j Evidently "vocational training," so much in vogue in "recent years, isn't all it hns been cracked up to be. Says Dr. Chillies F. Thwing, a leading authority on education : ' "The methods of teaching a student how to make a living through vocational courses have been unwise, extravagant rnd ineffective. The. combes have been Very superficial. They have generally lioen worthless for achieving the pur poses which have inspired them." , This is corroborated in an article by Garrett P. Seiviss, who says: "Similar testimony flows in from all sides. And yet ambitious boards of education are harassing the tax payers in towns and villages all over the country with, de mands to countersign ever-growing bonds, in order that addi t'ons may be made to the smattering curriculum, which is Hiiid in one town to run from plumbing and bricklaying to tru-pouring, baby .washing and the latest fad called 'charm'." Ip colleges and high schools Ixilh there seems to be a feeling lately that old-fashioned educators were not far off lifter all. The newest idea in education is also the oldest. Jt is tjie idea that the best way to prepare the child for life is to give him a good general education: then he will he better able to master any particular branch or knowledge or occupation or job when the occasion arises. Give him the ' foundation, and he can build the superstructure himself. There is one sound argument for vocational training, how ever, which is not affected by this general criticism. The ( bjections to such training properly apply to the bright chil dren and the average children. lUit for those who have no cchool interest in "book learning," and no gift for it, and whose age nevertheless holds them in school, vocatinna twining is very useful. There is much value in it when not carried to extremes. Marketing By Telephone is satisfactory and pleasant with our prompt service. It docs your many errands in a few moments instead of hours.
