Book Description
Excerpt from The Franklin Institute of the State of Pennsylvania for the Promotion of the Mechanic Arts: A Sketch of Its Organization and History The objects of the Franklin Institute, which has just closed the seventieth year of a useful and honorable career, are defined in the Act of Incorporation (March 30, 1824) to be "the Promotion and Encouragement of Manufactures and the Mechanic and Useful Arts." It was the first institution of its class to be established in the United States, and, though embodying in the scheme of its organization, many of the features of the so-called "Mechanics' Institutes," its scope was more broadly gauged, and its working methods constructed on a higher plane, than these. It was, if the comparison be permissible, the result of a compromise. Neither the Mechanics' Institutes, which sprung into existence like mushrooms about the time when the organization of the Franklin Institute was being considered - and which were devoted almost wholly to the instruction of artisans by means of lectures and classes - nor the exclusive societies of those learned in the sciences and arts, answered to the ideas and needs of the founders. An instrumentality was sought through which these two elements, so diverse in character, yet potentially capable of being mutually so helpful, could be brought into fraternal relations - a platform was needed, broad enough and strong enough to accommodate professor and layman, master and workman, side by side, without incommoding either; in brief, an institution was wanted which should have inscribed on its corner-stone, "Science with Practice; Practice with Science." To give material form to these ideas, our institution was founded; and the sentiment, above quoted, has been its animating spirit from the beginning to the present.
