Excerpt from Manual Training in the High School There is a widespread and' growing demand, in this country for manual training and industrial education. This demand is an effort to meet some of the fundamental educational needs of our school system and the social need for a larger number of intelligent trained workers for the industries. It has resulted in the teaching of a variety of the manual or mechanic arts and in the development of a number of systems of instruction. Almost all of the large cities in every State have spent large sums for buildings and equipment in order to meet the demand. The work in these centers is thoroughly organized, and the excellent results thus far attained have fully justified the large expenditures. In order to extend the benefits of instruction in manual train ing to more schools, legislation to encourage and assist schools undertaking this work, has been enacted in many of the States.

Excerpt from Manual Training High School Annual: June, 1904 The last Saturday of our outing came and all hated to say goodbye to Our Huckleberry Man as we called him. One of the campers got out his kodak and asked permission to take a picture of the berry-box, seeking under that pretence to get a picture of the hermit, when to his sur prise, the recluse seemed pleased and asked to have a picture sent to him addressed to Will Cox, Star Lake. The camper with interest said that his name was also Cox. He replied that his name Was really Wilcox but that he called himself Will Cox. Afterwards when one of the party was showing and describing camp pictures, to a young lady, the story of Wilcox was listened to wlith great interest. The young lady theri related a story of two brothers who were students of Michigan University. They had been hunting in Wisconsin a number of years before, one brother staying longer than the other. There they had lost trace of him and had never been able to find him. The father and mother had both recently. Died and the estate could not be settled. She was corresponding with the older brother and would write him, sending the picture and address of our hermit, in hopes that he might be the one. Inquiry was made and our hermit proved to be the long-lost brother. He agreed to return so that they might settle the estate. When this was done he accepted but a small sum of money and made his way back to his cabin in the solitude of the northern wilderness. His was a sensitive nature, one that craved the melancholy of the still pine forest and wild lake, happy in the heart of nature with his books and forest pets.

Excerpt from Manual Training High School Annual: May, 1906 A long, long day is done and darkness falls. The sky is dark; the winds strange memories bring, And in the world cold duty calls and calls. The birds that sang that joyful day forget to sing, Ou such a night we dare not read from books; The songs of bards are discord to our ears, We hear not words that sound like laughing brooks. Tis thus, because our hearts are filled with iears. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Manual Training Magazine, 1908, Vol. 9 Those schools which introduce manual training in more than the first year of high school usually introduce it in all four years. There is the greatest difference between the first and second years, because it is customary to introduce it into the first year to give it a trial, and then to extend it into the other grades of the high school. In general, the history of the introduction and extension Of manual training is as fol lows: In most cases it is begun in the eighth grade and gradually ex tended over the preceding grades; where it is begun in the primary, it is introduced throughout the four grades; in The high school it is intro duced for the first time in the first year, and then gradually extended to the later years.
