JXurd. Archibald C. Hurd, for the past 10 years county secretary of the Windsor Y. M. C.

and for 15 years a Y. M. C. A. secretary in the Brooklyn navy yard, delivered an.

interesting address on "The ICeesJ of Voca- tional Training and Guidance" at a well attended joint meeting of the Parent-Teacher associations of the city held last evening in the assembly hall of the high school building in observance of National Child Welfare Day. Dr. F. Clark, president of the Parent-Teacher association of the high school, presided at the exercises which included selections by the high school orchestra and two pleasing voeal solos by Miss Constance Rutter, whose accompaniments were played by Mrs. Florence Wood Russell.

Superin-tendent of Schools M. D. Chittenden read a letter of greeting from Mrs Frederic i Schoff. president of the Nationa' Congress of Mothers and Parent-Teacher assccia- tions, and a letter of greeting was ao received from Mrs. Henry A.

Harmon of Rutland, "president of the State Parent- Teacher association. Mr. Hurd, who humorously denied the title of doctor which had been given him in a newspaper article and by which he was introduced, but who proved to his audience that, as was aptly said by Dr. Clark, he was a doctor of lost oppor- -tunities, declared that the problem of properly fitting the boys and girls of the country for life was among the greatest ones faced by the nation to-day. The un- trained men and women of the country are a drug in the market and when employed at all are paid almost starvation, wages, said Mr.

Hurd. who related how ari employment bureau could fill a call for a laborer in minutes but had to starch for a trained bookkeeper. A ratural result of the untrained man's lack of work was that he became a victim of such organizations as the T. W. and the result of not tackling the problem of properly fitting boys for life, is that as discontented, unhajpy and unemployed men they present an even more serious problem to the community.

The speaker emphasized the fact that Vermont parents had not lived up to their responsibilities when a majority ot ineir sons lett school unfitted for work, and said that the workers in the field of education for young people had not yet begun to scratch the soil in vocational training. He impressed upon his hearers the need of constantly showing to their children the opportunities in agriculture and other lines in Vermont, and advocated pre-vocational work for the grade and intermediate pupils of the public schools. Congratulating the parent-teacher associations of the city for the start they have made in the home and school garden work, Mr. Hurd spoke of the need of co-operation between parents, teachers and employers in observing the opportunities in other vocations, and advised a thorough study of the different fields. Declaring that the parents must wake up and face the complex industrial problems of life as they exist today, Mr.

Hurd denounced strongly the ones who repress a child's natural inclination for some particular line of work and wreck his life by making a 1 fourth-rate lawyer out of a first-rate farmer or a business man out of an inventor. A considerable per cent, of the failures in life, said the speaker, are caused by boys being forced into callings for which they have no taste. In closing, Air. Hurd said that if the country didn't want anarchists the parents must give their children the proper training during adolescence, and gave several suggestions for cooperation between he parents and public school teachers. He advocated a closer supervision over the literature irculated among children and also a closer inspection of moving picturft theaters.

In order to have contented and useful citizens, said the speaker, the parents and teachers must work together in the field of vocational training.

Hair Often Ruined By Washing With Soap Soap should be used very carefully, if you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepared sham poos contain too much alkali.

This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it The best thing for steady use is Just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless), and is better tnan the most expensive soap or anything else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy tc manage.
