Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual Arts Public School Manual Arts an Agency, for Vocational Education Some experiments which have been made in recent years to provide for better equipped industrial workers have seemed to indicate that little account has been taken of manual training in the public schools - this training to be so organized as to accomplish in part at least the desired results. Unquestionably the trade school, the special industrial school, and the continuation school are each and all a means to the desired end. It is a question, however, whether our present public school organization may not do much that it is not now doing to aid in the industrial education movement. Admitting, if we can, that the schools are not fulfilling their obligation to society in this respect, and that manual training teachers are shareholders with their brother teachers concerned in more purely academic subjects in helping to solve the problem of industrial education, what can they do to change their methods? The Present Facilities Already we have in public school manual arts departments from four to eight shops equipped for wood and metal work. We have drawing rooms to provide for three kinds of mechanical drawing and as many kinds of freehand drawing. We have science laboratories for practically all the sciences that are taught.
