ond food also there are accommodations
for classes in industrial and free-hand
drawing, wood.carving, modelling. sew.
ing and dress-making. Lectures on do.

also will be found q kindergarten, meet.
ing each morning. Above are sleeping
rooms.
The question naturally arises-who
are to come to this building and enter as
students The answer covers in its
scope large area.
In ths afternoons boys and girls from
public and private schools and teachers
anxious to learn. Before the winter is
over thousand will be coming weekly,
each paying from to so cents per les
son for instruction in practical things, a
knowledge of which must affect their
after-life.
In the evening will come girls and
boys, busy during the day in shop and
factory, or servants anxious to know
more, in order to fit themselves for
higher wages and better homes.
These will reap benefits and grow
stronger and better by the training
schools; but there are still other stu
dents to use these class rooms and enter
the college or school of ndustries--viz,
men and women who wish to fit them
selves to go out as teachers of these
branches, both in and out of New York
city. Normal classes are forming, and
the pupilo will have opportunity for CIV
ing instruction in the chldren's classes,
thus gaining experience aud skill, not
only in teaching the industries, but also
in disciplining and controlling large
classes.
Young men, as we'll as ladies, come t.
enter the normal classes, and o new ca.
reer for college graduates is opening
From many places comes the request for
educated men, who will become instruc-
tors in carpentry. mechanical drawing,
modelling and construction. A good car
penter or designer may not be a good
teacher for boys; and training is required
to learn systems and schemes of this in
dustrial education, as well as to gain
knowledge of now best to manage young
people. A moderate charge is made for
such training, and the students must
realize that it takes time and energy to
thoroughly fit themselves for such i'm.
portant work.
A bureau of teachers, connected with
the association, finds positions in schools
and institutions, and the demands for
such teachers steadily increases. This is
specially true from country places and
smaller cities.
The building affords an opportunity to
receive limited number of resident stu
dents. For them are two distinct ar.
rangements, one being that the student
should give from ten to twelve months
to the association, and by her service
recompense for the thorough training
she will receive in various departments
of work. Such q one, when she leaves,
will naturally take the head of similar
buildings starting in different cities.
Ladies who cannot remain so long can
enter for three months by paying $3.50.
This will cover their living expenses and
washing and their training in two or
three normal classes, such as cooking,
sewing, and little housekeepers. These
will go out to take positions as teachers
of the domestic sciences.
The training. school opens means to
prepare for useful career to many 9TH
ers who feel lthey must, or who desire
to teach, but hardly know what or how.
If such persons can spend the necessary
time in training they will find Themselves

more than livlihood for those engaged
In it; for the consciousness Of being EN-.
ployed in helping to form noble lives by
