Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual Arts for Vocational Ends If one is to receive a profitable return from a wage earning occupation he must prepare particularly to do what is required of those engaged in the occupation. A vocational tendency, therefore, must obtain somewhere in the process of education. Inasmuch as the large majority of those at any time enrolled in the public schools must find a means of livelihood early in life, it is imperative that the public schools, even in the lower grades, offer an opportunity for vocational work. It is because of this necessity, and because America is so largely industrial that industrial education has recently become prominent as a subject not only for discussion in educational circles but for action in legislative bodies. Believing that the manual arts should and may have a prominent place in that branch of vocational education known as industrial education, the author has urged upon his auditors in classroom and lecture room the need of a reorganization and an extension of the manual arts to meet the needs of the newer education. If by means of publication his appeal can be made to a larger number of maple, this book will serve its purpose.
