Book excerpt: Excerpt from Technical Education in Evening Schools The interest which is being exhibited at the present time in Technical Education has encouraged the writer in the belief that a brief discussion of the subject, in so far as it concerns Evening Schools, will be welcome. There is to be discerned a tendency to underestimate the value of the work which can be done by students who have been engaged for nine or ten hours a day in earning a livelihood; but though such study may not be carried on under the happiest conditions, it is voluntary, and it manifests latent qualities of energy and perseverance which no one who has regard to national welfare can afford to ignore. Evening Schools have, in this country, grown to considerable proportions, and during the session 1902-3 more than 657,000 students were enrolled. While any dispassionate observer must admit that in individual cases sound and meritorious progress is made, few will deny that this is accompanied by an enormous waste of money, time, and effort. For one who reaps full benefit from attendance at the classes thousands fail. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
