ra. After expressing the pleasure It gave
him to welcome to thla city the members
of the association and after enumerating
Borne of the odvantagoa and prominent
Institutions of the city, Mr. PsuodT-s called
attention to the fact thnt the mnnufar
turera had been overlooking their Interest
In legislation and euKgoted that they give
moro attention to thla matter In the fu
ture. Dr. Oeorge E. McLean, preeldent
of the t'nlverslty of Iowa, who la a member
of the association, responded briefly to the
address of welcome. After complimenting
I he assembly upon their privilege of listen
ing to State Senator Saunders. Dr. Mclean,
In view of the fact that the subject of
"Branch Agricultural and Mahual Train
ing Bchoola,for Iowa" was on the afternoon
program for discussion, said that he under
j atood It had been suggested to convert the
J old high school building In thla city Into
a manual training irmwi. otuviiiiiib mm
waa of unusual Interest to the manufac
turer. . He eald he thoroughly endorsed
the proposition and that If Council Bluffs
should open a manual training and Indus
trial school It would become one of the
foremont cities of the state In educational
work.
President's Address.
President Carson, In his annual address,
referred to the growth of tha association
In Ita few years of existence and what It
had accomplished. He urged that every
manufacturer, whether big or small, co
operate, saylngt. "Wo need the advice,
help and moral support of every manufac
turer In thla state, and no Individual part
nership or corporation, however small,
should feel that they are not needed or
ahlrk the responsibility they owe to them
selves and this association." After dis
cussing the legislation recured by the as
sociation and the question of railroad
rates he said In part:
Referring to the I'nlted States census of
1916, we find there were 4,786 manufacturing
establishments at that time In the atate.
employing 64.ttu3 men, and using capital of
fm.i2f.4M). with an output In finished pro
ducts of 1)80,672,813.
Comparing this with conditions only five
years previous, aa shown by the census of
1900, It Indicates that In those five years wa
increased our manufactured products 20.8
per cent and capital invested ail per cent.
At thla rate of progress, the year 1H10 will
find the railroads conveying 1S3.6uO,0O0 more
Of manufactured goods, the products of
Iowa factories, and the capital Inveated will
be KJ3.6O0.000 greater.
Taking the fifty-two states and territories
compared by tha national census of 19, we
find Iowa ranks eighteenth -from the top, In
value of manufactured producta, which la
certainlya shewing to be proud of. In sev
eral special lines of manufacture, however,
it can be aafely stated that the output la
larger than any other atate In the union.
One of the problems of the future la the
supply of capable young men for our grow
ing industries, especially those skilled in
handicraft, to do the actual work In the
ahop and the mechanic arts. We have
ample facilities In our universities for edu
cating youg men aa engineers or captains
of Industry, but we have no manual train
ing acnoola for those who do not desire a
higher education, or who have not tlje
necessary means to accomplish It. These
schools might be established In connection
with agr!cultual high schools, which have
been proposed for the work of the farm,
and thus prepare thousanda of our young
men for tha practical affairs of life without
losa of time. The larger cltlea of the state
have commenced manual training, to a
small extent. In the public schools; which,
with the aid of the 'state and under state
control, could be made very efficient.
Whatever aid and Influence can be given
by thla association toward establishing a
complete system of manual training schools
throughout tha state should be started
without delay. . .1

manual and Industrial training In connec

Owing to the fact that the discussion occu
pied tha entire afternoon, the paper on
"Legitimate Competition," by W. R. Lane,
was postponed.
Tho matter of manual and Industrial
training schools was Introduced by William
louden of Fairfield, who fvad a lengthy
paper on the subject. Dr. McLean took a
prominent part In the dlscunelon and State
R:.nntrr Khlrlev ailltllnnd of Mills county
I spoko at length In defense of the bill pro
viding for the establishment of four In
dustrial hich schools In the state, which
was Introduced by him In the last legis
lature, but which was defeated. O. J. Mc
Manus, former superintendent of scbnols
of Pottawattamie county, also took part
In the discussion, and 8tierlntendent Clif
ford and .Members Hess IM Bhugart of
the Board of Education, who are Urging
the establishment of manual training in
the schools of this city, were present during
the discussion.
In advocating the establishment by tha
state of manual and Industrial training
schools Mr. Louden said In part:
Whatever additional branches above the
public schools may be taken up by the
few who have the time and the money to
fii. thr should he nrnvtded for the
i many a practical education which will
properlyVflt them for the active duties of
It Is all right to acquire a general
knowledge of general matters, but It Is
equally Important to acquire a special
knowledge of the special mattera which
win constitute the life work of the pupil.
Three-fourths of the entire population
of the United States Is engaged In tho
business of agriculture, mechanics, house
keeping and kindred occupations. Those
engaged In these occupations should have
as good an education In their respective
lines aa those engaged In the professions.
Dr. McLean said thnt graded Industrial
work was aa necessary In the 'public
schools as graded literary work. The In
dustrial education, he said, should begin
In the kindergarten. He did not advocate
the establishment of the Industrial high
schools, but an extension of this work In
the State university and Ames Agricul
tural college.
President VanCleave of tha National
Manufacturers' association contended that
manual training does not Interfere with
the regular school curriculum and that
one hour a day during the four years'
of a student in the high school spent in
the manual and Industrial training de
partment would be all that would be
needed.
The feeling of the association relative
to this subject will. It Is understood, be
expressed In the resolutions which will
come before the meeting today.

YOUTH WANTS TO GET HARRIED
Clerk of the Court Thinks He la Too
Young.
He was only II years of age, neverthe
less he wantefl a marriage license. He
was small for his age and his head did
not reach far above the ootlnter.' When
Lou Benscotter, hailing from Pacific Junc
tion, la., appeared in the office of tha
clerk of the district court yesterday, Dep
uty Roy Hardesty at first supposed he
was a youth from the country who had
brought In some gopher claws on which to
obtain the bounty and mistaken the office
for that of the county auditor. When the
youth, however, stated he wanted a mar
riage license Mr. Hardesty thought the
lad was Joking, but soon discovered his
error,
"I have my father's consent," eald the
youth when he noticed the look of amaze
ment on the face of the deputy clerk, and
therewith he produced a email scrap of
I paper bearing something written in pen
cil.
"Who Is the young woman you want to
marry and what is her agef inquired
Mr. Hardesty.
"Francea Brown and she Is li, the same
age as I am. She lives In Council Bluffs,"
was the reply of the youth with Increased
confidence, as he possibly Imagined thit
the license was about to be Issued. The
youth then proceeded to inform Mr. Har
desty that he had a letter from the girl's
father, saying that while he considered
the two rather young to get married, he
was satisfied, as he knew that he, the
would-be groom, was a steady, sober and
Industrious youth.
The lad's hopes, however, were dashed
to the ground when told that his parents
and those of the girl would have to come
with them to get a license. Young Ben
scotter left the offloe greatly crestfallen.

Tnnerle Over Street Fnlr. .
The Board of Supervisors yesterday
adopted a resolution endorsing the proposi
tion to hold a good roads convention In
Council Bluffs during the street fair and
carnival and promising the promoters Its
co-operation. This action was taken by the
supervisors on the understanding that the
proceeds of the street fair and carnival
this year are to be devoted to the Improve
ment of the roads leading Into the city.
There appears to be some misunderstand
ing In certain quarters as to what disposi
tion la to be made of the proceeds of this
year's street fair and carnival. By somo
of the officials of the Carnival company
it had been stated that the money will be
devoted to the betterment of the county
roads leading Into the city, while members
of the city council and other municipal
officers were under the Impression that the
money was to De turned into the Lower
Broadway paving fund.
"UnTesB the money from this year's street
fair and carnival goes towards the Broad
way paving fund there may be no street
fair," snld a member of the city council
yesterday. "The granting of the use of
the streets for the carnival rests with the
city council, and as I Understand It, this
permission will not be forthcoming unless
there Is some guarantee that the proceeds
of the carnival be devoted towards paving
Broadway. It Is up to tha officers of the
Street Fair and Carnival company to set
this matter right."

The cause of Rheumatism is a sour, acid condition of the blood, brought
about by indigestion, chronic constipation, and the accumulation in the system
of refuse matter which the natural eliminative organs have failed to carry out.
This refuse or waste matter ferments and sours, generating uric acid which is
absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of the body, and Rheuma
tism gets possession of the system. One may also be born with a predisposi
tion or tendency to Rheumatism, because lite all blood diseases it can ba
transmitted from parent to child. The aches and pains of the disease are only
symptoms which you may scatter or relieve with liniments. plasters, blisters,
etc., or deaden with opiates. As soon, however, as such treatment is left off of
there is any exposure to cold or dampness, or after an attack of indigestion or
constipation, the wandering pains, sore muscles and joints, and tender places
on the flesh return, and the sufferer finds that he has merely checked the symp
toms while the real cause of the disease remains in the blood. Rheumatism
Can never be cured while the blood remains saturated with irritating, pain
producing uric acid poison. S. S. S. cures Rheumatism by dri-nng the cause
out of the blood. It thoroughly cleanses the blood and renovates the circulation
by neutralizing the acids and expelling all foreign matter from the system.
S. S. S. stimulate and invigorates the blood so that instead of a weak, sour
stream, constantly depositing acrid and corrosive matter in the muscles, joints,
nerves and bones, the body is soothed and nourished by rich, health-sustaining
blood, which completely and permanently cures Rheumatism. S. S. S. is com
posed of roots, herbs and barks which possess both purifying and tonic
properties just what is needed in every case of Rheumatism. Book on Rheu
matism and any medical advice desired sent free.
