M'KINLEY AND ROOSEVELT
Colonel Roosevelt attacked the late
President McKinley as he now assails
President Taft when Mr. McKinley
would not do what Roosevelt wanted.
The fact is made plain in a state
ment made by James Boyle, formerly
consul general to Liverpool and for
many years private secretary and
confidential friend of President Mc
Kinley. He asserts that Mark Han
na's dslike of Roosevelt was due to
the fact that the latter was guilty of
"insolent and brutal criticism of Pres-

Vocational Education Greatest
Need In Present American
School System
By EDWIN G. COOLEY, Former Superintendent of Chicago Public
v Schools
HE FUNDAMENTAL DEFECT
TEM IS THE RESULT OF OUR CUSTOM OF TERMINAT
ING COMPULSORY SCHOOL EDUCATION AT FOURTEEN
YEARS OF AGE.
Every one admits that this is too early. We contribute to the
support of the public schools on the ground that they are neces
sary to the PERPETUATION of our FREE INSTITUTIONS.
We urge that a certain UTNTMUM of INSTRUCTION and
TRAINING is INDISPENSABLE as a preparation for CITI
ZENSHIP and that the training of CHARACTER connected with
the minimum is ofSgreat importance for this prepartion.
To be fair to all, MODERN conditions require another type of
school which, like the other schools, presupposes the general train
ing given in the elementary school, but which has as its SPE
CIAL PROBLEM the training for VOCATIONAL LIFE of the
youth who must leave the ordinary school at fourteen years. The
training on the immediately PRACTICAL, TECHNICAL side may
fall to the VOCATIONS themselves, but a school must be provided
to SUPPLEMENT this training, supplying the KNOWLEDGE
and SKILL demanded by MODERN BUSINESS or INDUS
TRIAL LIFE as well as training for the FUTURE CITIZEN.
Much of this school work must be done in the school now known as
the continuation or part time school.
In addition to the CONTINUATION school which will give
VOCATIONAL TRAINING to the large majority of our youth
above fourteen, there is need for SUPPLEMENTARY VOCA
TION SCHOOLS for both COUNTRY AND CITY.
OUR ABSURD APPRENTICESHIP LAWS AND OUR INADEQUATE
LEGISLATION WITH REFERENCE TO THE EMPLOYMENT OF BOYS
AND GIRLS BETWEEN FOURTEEN AND SIXTEEN YEARS OF AGE
HAVE CREATED A SPECIAL SITUATION WHICH MUST BE DEALT

ident McKinley" because the latter
would not allow himself to be domi
nated by Roosevelt. Mr. Boyle says:
"I also feel free to say and it is
my duty to say, in view of certain
things now going on that it was well
understood by intimates of the late
Senator Hannah that the chief reason
why he opposed Roosevelt's nomina
tion for vice-president was because of
Roosevelt's insolent and brutal criti
cism of President McKinley in refer
ence to incidents immediately preced
ng the Spanish-American war. Mark
Hanna fiercely resented these criti
cisms, and wanted the president to
summarily remove Roosevelt as as
sistant secretary of .the navy; but the
president, with his wonderful pa
tience and amiability, passed the mat
ter over in silence, and never men
tioned it to others; but Mark Hanna
felt under no such restraint. Mark
Hanna was one of the few men who
thoroughly appreciated at that early
day what kind of a man Roosevelt has
proven himself to be."
Origin of a Familiar Saying.
When Aurelius Paulus, the Roman
consul, desired a divorce from his wife
some friends reasoning with him asked:
"Is she not beautiful and virtuous anil
of noble family and great wealth';
What fault, then, cau you find with
her?"
And the consul stooped down, unfnn
tened his shoe and. showing it to t litMit .
answered: "Is it nol of fine materi:;l?
Is it not well made? Does it nut ap
pear to fit excellently? Yet uoneof yon
knows where it pinches me."
; Money and Marbles.
j Once there was a man who thought
i Russell Page ought to stop work. He
l spoke to him about it. "Why get to
1 gether any more money, Mr. Sage?
j You can't eat it; you can't drink it
j What good will it do you?"
"Ever play marbles?" Uncle Russell
I asked.
! "Yes, when I was a boy."
i "Couldn't eat 'em. could you?
; Couldn't drink 'em, could you? No use
to you, were they? What did you play
i marbles for?" Harper's.
r Unnecessary Question.
"Poor man," said the sympathetic
lady to the brakeman with his fore
finger missing. "Have you lost your
finger?"
"Oh, no, madam," replied the brake
man. "I've just left it at the mani
cure's to be polished up. I didn't have
time this morning to wait until it was
finished."-Harper's Weekly.

DR. MILLIKEN CALLS
WILSON ONLY "HI"
OREGON CITY, Sept. 18. (Editor
of the Enterprise) I have a sincere
regard and respect for Woodrow Wil
son as a christian man and a gentle
man. But I am not going to vote for
the Democratis for the following rea
sons: 1st. Mr. Wilson is all right, but he
is only one side of the ticket. The
other side is Thomas F. Marshall,
who was nominated by the liquor in
terests of his state for Governor in
1908, and who fought his whole cam
paign on the liquor issue, attacking
the local option law so bitterly tnat
he linel - "'1- the liquor vote of the
state c. Bggfc Jut.
2nd. mi. yilson is a local option
man, but Mr. Marshall used all his
influence after election to get the lo
cal option law repealed, and succeed
ed, with the result that forty-five
counties, previously dry, have gone
back into the old license system.
3rd. Mr. Wilson is a temperance
man, but Mr. Marshall said through
the columns of the Indianapolis Sun
in August of 1908, "The Democrat
who believes that the liqour business
should be abolished entirely should
not vote for me. He should vote the
Prohibition ticket." I thoroughly
agree with him.
4th. Mr. Wilson says he believes
in repealing the liquor laws, but Mr.
Mr. Steve Fleming, the great Booz
boss of Fort Wayne said in the In
dianapolis Star of January 9,1911. "I
have known him (Marshall) for a
long time, and he has visited me fre
quently during the last few months.
He is interested in strengthening the
liquor laws, and J believe we are in
accord as to what should be done on
that question." If Mr. Marshall is In
accord with Mr. Fleming I cannot be.
5th. That stalwart clean gentle
man, Mr. Bryan, was back of Mr. Wil
son's nomination. But T. M. Gilmore
President of the National Model Li
cense League (a booze organization)
and exmayor Dave Rose or Milwau
kee, were back of Mr. Marshall's nom
ination. And the fact that Mr. Bryan
and Mr. Wilson were not strong
enough to keep one of the strongest
anti prohibition, anti local option, li
cense advocates in the land off the
other half of the ticket shows that
they will be unable to do anything
against the wishes of their strange
bedfellows for the advancement of
temperance legislation If they could
not keep them off the ticket, they
could not help temperance legislation
with them there.
6th. I believe the refined Mr. Wil
son is the bait, and Mr. Marshall is
the hook that the Democratic Tammany-Murphy
ring have out this
year of our Lord ninteen-twelve, to
catch Christian temperance suckers,
and I have no desire to be caught by
so obvious a piece of political chican
ery. 7th. Should I vote for Mr. Wilson
I shallow his running mate as well,
and as the Good Book says "A house
divided .gainst itself cannat stand" I
am. going to avoid indigestion by tak
ng Mr. Marshall's advice and voting
the Prohibition ticket.

The Death Flower.
One of the early English explorers,
Hugh Arkwright. who sailed the Pa
cific in 1581, warned travelers against
visiting El Bauoor, the home of the
death flower. This flower, he says, is
so large that a man can stand upright
inside one of its blossoms. But if he
does so he will surely fall asleep, lull
ed by the strange fragrance it distills.
Then the flower folds its petals and
suffocates him. "And so he passes into
death through splendid dreams and
gives his body to the death flower for
food."
The History of Tacitus.
The entire history of Tacitus, as we
have the work, was regained from a
single copy found in the fifteenth cen
tury in a monastery of Westphalia.
That we should owe the works of this
author to one copy is a remarkable cir
cumstance, for. the Hmperor Tacitus,
who claimed to be a descendant of the
historian, had copies of the history
placed in every library of the empire
and each year had ten copies transcrib
ed for presentation to scholars. All. U
seenis, perished, save the Westphaliaii
copy.
What He Would Do.
They were motoring indolently
through the Bronx. Twilight had sat
down upon the land. The sudden
roaring of wild beasts from the dis
tant zoo caused the fair one to start
"Oh, Jack," she cried, nestling closer
and closer, "where would you go if
you saw a dozen lions bounding along
after us?" ' -
"If I . saw a dozen lions bounding
along after me," grinned the heartless
wretch, "I'd go to a sanitarium."
Judge.
Too Sensitive.
"There is absolutely no tise to talk
to me about woman suffrage."
"Really, old man. 1 cannot under
stand why you oppose it so strongly."
"Well, I'll tell you. I was in a cloth
ing store last week looking at some
neckties when a woman came in and
told one of the clerks she wanted to
buy a collar for her dog." Judge.

Putting Out a Fire.
When trying to put out a fire re
member that one gallon of water at
the bottom of the blaze will do more to
put it out than ten gallons at the top.
"Play low" is the motto to follow while
fighting fire. A few gallons at the bot
tom of the flames will rise in clouds of
steam when the fire is rising and
quench it A big blaze on the leeward
side looks fearful, but play low with
the water on the bottom of the fire on
the windward side and you have the
speediest way to quench the flames
and will not require a river.
