Now we contend, with the immortal JefFerUh |ap TO
thai all men are created equal and that the Tine will
ahu iaoor OF one man, when properly directed, ~ Of

expense to become qualified for professional put e ms
sults-so 1t does for mechanical ones Indeed he eulo
siudy OF mechanism is the most abstruse ofihe two
ana IN general,we see the practical mechanic ps
sessed oi the strongest native talent. Educal@ Cou
may 90 vast deal IN improving ordinary capacs hl
"u' ha'ura genius must be combined 10 produa nn Il

unu services therefore, of the laborng kesic
ana mechanic, are of at least as great imporanc M a
to mankind, and useful to the worlI nc tbosc n aa
