Book Description
Excerpt from The Public Trade School Early in the year 1907, a problem, which gradually had been growing more and more serious, had to be fairly met and solved. It was a question of finances. To charge students the cost of their tuition in a properly conducted trade school means to debar the very ones who need the instruction. Equally impractical is it to expect a few to bear the expense of a work so valuable to the entire community. The need of such a school was proven the first day it opened its doors. From its outset it was making better workmen and better citizens. It was the opportunity and privilege of the Merchants and Manufacturers' Asso ciation to start such a work in the life of a city, but it was not its bounden duty to continue it. The child grew beyond the power of its parent to support it. Since the work brought a rich harvest to the municipality, the municipat should bear the expense of the sowing. The solution of the problem lay in having the trade school included in the public school system of the city. To do this, a tax, additional to the one already levied for the public schools, was necessary. This extra assessment could be collected only by the permission of the state legislature. Con sequently, a bill was prepared and presented to that body early in 1907. It met with immediate indorsement in both Assembly and Senate. It passed and became effective July 1, 1907. The Milwaukee Board of School Directors immediately seized its Opportunity to take over a trade school well equipped to teach three trades and with one and one-half years' experience in pioneer work. On account of this progressive step on the part of the public-school authorities the original subscribers deeded the entire equipment of the school to the city in fee simple.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Making of a Trade School In other words, the Manhattan Trade School aimed to. Find a way (i) to improve the worker, physically, mentally, morally, and financially; (2) to better the con ditions of labor in the workroom; (3) to raise the character of the industries and the conditions of the homes, and (4) to show that such education could be practically undertaken by public instruction. The four aims are really one, for the better workers should improve the product, make higher wages, react advan tageously on the industrial situation and on the home, and the course of instruction formulated to accomplish this end would help in the further introduction of such training.

Book Description
Excerpt from The People's School: A Study in Vocational Training It seems to be difficult for us to learn that human institutions may not be borrowed outright. The sight of some new form of efficiency in our neighbors over the sea stirs the conscious progressives at home to minute and wholesale imitation. This is particularly true where we feel second-rate, - in art, science, and education. In politics and industry, we are a trifle cock-sure of ourselves and copy scarcely at all; but elsewhere we tend to be over-impressed by foreign example. The history of conscious educational reform in America offers many illustrations of indiscriminate institution-matching, all the way from the kindergarten to the university. There have been large gains, of course; but we have paid an unnecessarily high price in maladjustments. If only we had noted the essential elements of foreign experience and moulded the institutional forms to suit our own population and national ideals, we could have made our institutions far more effective.

Book Description
Excerpt from An Address on Technical Education and Industrial Drawing Prof. Walter Smith, State director of art education in Massachusetts, then read the following paper: Mr. President, ladies, and gentlemen: The subject upon which I have to address you to-day is that of "Technical education and industrial drawing," a subject which is comprehensive enough to afford interest to the general public, while it is at present the best discussed theme among professional educators. I am aware that this whole matter is neither new nor strange in Washington, for from the Bureau of Education in this city has emanated much of the most valuable information we possess concerning it; and the lecture, recently published, by General Bimey, delivered by him before the Washington Art Club, upon a phase of the subject described as "Industrial and decorative art," is perhaps the fullest and fairest presentation of this matter that has appeared on this side of the Atlantic. Though I hardly expect to present to you much that is new, I may possibly cooperate with you in the diffusion of some new light on an old subject; hoping that thereby additional interest may be awakened, and that in consequence serious consideration may be given to this question, one which has assumed an importance that may be fairly described as national in its character. It may at first sight be considered an overestimate of the matterJif it should be asserted that upon the technical knowledge and skill possessed by a nation depend its safety, its wealth, and indirectly its happiness; yet this is undoubtedly true. It may also be stated that any scheme of education which does not from the first make provision for the gradual acquirement of such technical knowledge and skill, at such times and in such ways as the ages and circumstances of the pupils necessitate, is insufficient and not practical, and in dire need of complete reorganization. Yet that happens to be the case with every scheme of public education administered by city or State authorities in the United States of America to-day. I could have made that statement in many more words, and so have beclouded its meaning that you would not be shocked by it; or I might have quoted some one else who said it, and thus have shielded myself from the responsibility of saying it.

Excerpt from Los Angeles City Schools and the War No social activity can escape the influence of a great war. This is as true of the public schools as it is of business or the home. The problem presented was whether that influence should be one that would tend to interrupt the regular course of instruction, or to benefit it.

Book Description
Excerpt from Education in Albany: An Opportunity and a Business If the preference is for private or parochial training, then the opportunity is equally complete. The Catholic schools offer the same well-rounded courses beginning with the kindergarten, extending through the grades, with four high schools for boys and girls and two colleges for girls. There are also private tuitionary schools for boys and for girls that take young children through the grades and prepare for college. In addition to the regular academic institutions there are schools for those requiring special consideration. In the public schools special classes are provided for those mentally retarded, for the anemic, tuberculous and deaf and for those of poor vision. A vocational school furnishes a two year course for boys and girls who prefer to prepare for a trade rather than for a more advanced academic training, and a continuation school cares for one thousand working girls and boys by giving them the type of educa tion for which they are best fitted, mechanical, commercial or domestic arts. Evening schools last year registered over 2150 pupils. They offer courses ranging all the way from first English for the foreigners who wish to learn our language, through the several grades to advanced work. In science, mathematics and technical studies. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
