| boys, the work of the girls in their own
department proved fully as interesting.
In the sewing room, which was under
Miss Crittenden's able management, the
long tables were neatly kept, and each
girl was provided with pretty little sew
ing basket, tie1 with blue ribbons. Dur
ing the first year the girls are engaged on
piece work drafting and cutting patterns
accor llnr to the Mcdowell system, and
the planning Of white garments. At the
end OF the second year a wooden dress is
finished. During the third year the girls
take mp the designing and fitting Of
dresses and make a wrapper or tea-gown
at the close. The fourth year EN- braces
The making and finishing Of tailor dresses,
jackets. etc. Sometimes the girls work
on orders which they bring in from out
side persons. One young girl made a very
pretty waist and sold it TO a companion
for So. Another girl in the third year
class made wedding dress for a friend.
In the cooking g-school a dozen girls
fitted about the room IN dainty caps and
fresh white aprons. One ct was making
an economical custarG pie out OF two eggs
and some cornstarch. Another was busily
engaged mixing dough for soda biscuus s.

In this art department all the girls have
one years instruction in modelling before
they take up wood carving and free-hand
drawing is taken throughout the three
years course. The girls in the wood
carving class were engaged in making
from their own designs grills for win
dows and doors, fancy chairs, and
tabourettes. Two of the students, Miss
Flint and Miss Morse, are making grand

preliminary course, which is substantially
the same as that given in the So called
manual training schools. dividing the time
equally between academic and industrial
branches. The former includes English,
mathematics science and history-in fact,
a general high school course, With ight
emphasis on nthe science and mathematics.
In the industrial branches of this pre-
liminary course the pupil takes the ele-
ments OF tool work, carpentry, pattern
making, forging. molding and practice in
the machine-shOp. There are also the in
custrial art branches, including ireehand
and mechanical drawing, modelling ana
wood carving. In place of the tool work
the girls take domestic subjects such as
plain sewing, dressmaking, millinery,
cooking. sanitation and household art and
science in general.

aridity of the surrounding country, it
would seem strange that a big tribe of
people could manage to exist in such q
barren locality. But here it must be bornR
in mind that the country was different
then than it is now. There is a strong
probability that at that time Death Valley
was an inland sea. Salton Lake was
also full of water, and consequently there
was vegetation on the mountain sides.
Trees grew where now only rocks exist,
and the rainfall was consequently copIouS.
Scientific research points to this, which
being the case explains perfectly the queS-
ton of sustenance.
Taking into consideration the size of
the prehistoric city on Black Mountain,
it must have had a large population. 1t
covers at least eighty acres, and judging
by the oloseness of the buildings, and add
ing to this the knowledge of how the
aborigines packed themselves into their
houses. there must have been about 5000
people there at that time. Where are
they now? Simply gone to join the
countless millions who sleep in the bosom
of nature, as all present inhabitants of
the earth also must when the time comes.

the crudest description. Those found on
Black Mountain were little cruder than
those that have been found in Arizona.
They did not know how to heW stone,
but made the walls of their houses sim
ply by piling up the rough volcanic
rock.
Taking these facts into consideration,
there seems a possibility that the former
residents of Black Mountain belonged to
the paleolithic period of the stone age.
Certain it is. they are below those that
have been accepted as belonging to the
neolithic period. Here is another impor-
tant scientific fact, as it has always been
a matter of doubt as to whether man ex-
isted on the North American continent
during the paIeoithic psriod of the stone
age. But only long and careful study can
set these vexed questions at rest.
One of the most important features of
the Black Mountain city is the fact that
the houses are in more perfect condition
than any that have heretofore been found.
While number are merely piles of rock.
there are others which could be put back
into their original condition in few
hours. One on the peak is almost good
enough to move into, if it had roof. In
the debris of the Arizona ruins decaved
wood has been found, indicating that
timbers had been used for the roof.
On Black Mountain the only traces Of
wood were patches of charcoal, mixed
with the earth that filled the centers of
the houses. From this it would appear
as if the inhabitants had been driven from
their homes by fire. This, however. is
hard to conceive of unless it be that the
crater just to the south of the citv became
slightly active, and so heated everything
as to cause combustion. In this case the
ashes from the crater must have all
blown away. But this theory can be
supported by the fact that the entire
lower portion of the mountain is covered
with ashes.
Judging BY the present appearance and

which his boys had made. The forge-room
presented busy scene with the sparks
flying III all directions as the boys in caps
and overalls hammered out iron bolus,
welded rings or tempered steel.
In the machine-shop, the students were
now engaged in the manufacture and
polishing OF wheels Tor engines and
dynamos, having just completed a large
number OF sets of tools for an industrial
school in Nevada. Near this shop stood
another building containing large brick

four years. But even if the country boy
stays only TWO years in the school, he is
given the general course in tool work.
Therefore the younger city boys are
given a good foundation training ana are
encouraged to remain longer in the school.
Herein lies the very weakness of these
Eastern schools-they do not give the in
dustrial foundation. But we are nearer
the German idea of a trade school.
During the first year every boy spends
an hour ard half daily in The wood
working department, where he learns the
use of tools and makes simple studies OF
joints, dove-taiI mortiscs, etc. Later, as a
young apprentice, he makes drawers
ca abinets, benches and drawing desks, and
besides these, Mr.. Merrill exhibited with
just pride certain woodwork, both useful
and ornamental, about the buildings
The San Francisco call., 1897-11-14

According to Professor Merrill, primo
pal of the California School of Mechanical
Arts, the manual training school is purely
educational in its aim. Its course of
study is for discipline. The industrial in
structon is given to a boy in order that
his faculties of observation may be awak-
encd, his judgment strengthened and his
mind in general developed. The student
receives academic instruction also.
Our school here" said Mr.. Merrill, 'is
distinctly trade school, and in such a
school industrial education is itself the
aim sought. It's pupils are taught to earn
their living. But the New York trade
schools make the mistake of taking
students and handling them just as
would be done in a shop. They follow
out too closely the old apprentice system.
They must, however, accomplish greater
results than in the shops. The object of
a trade school is not to turn out more
Sorkmen, but better.
"It has in reality three functions,
though the general outsider does not see
more than one point of view at a time.
First the trade school must benefit the in
dividuaI by giving him the best possible
must be suited to the local Industrial
needs OF the community; it will elevate
and better them, tending often to i'm
prove an old trade or create new one.
Third, the first two functions OF the school
having been fulfilled it necessarily follows
that the last will be carried out in the
benefit to humanity in general.
ut is the development of skill in trade
schools that has given Germany the lead
IN tie manufacture of fabrics, weaving,
elc., and caused it 10 take away much
trade from England in these lines. Trade
schools were in existence long before
manual training schools. for the reason
that they did not undertake to do any
more than is done for apprentices in the
shops. But with the added wisdom
cleaned from the failure of the Eastern
schools the California School of Mechan-
ical Arts, though but in existence three
years, has raised the standard IN indu
trial education, aiming 10 turn out few
students at each graduation who will go
into the shops and become superior work
men and citizens.
cit is the first time," continued Mr.
Merrill, that any school has tried to
combine manual training with training in
the industrial arts. But these two ideas
are really supplementary to an extent
which an outsider cannot comprehend.
''And So" concluded the principal.
this school has been successful for the
very reason that it has had a high aim
from the beginning, and yet has always
met different conditions as figured out be-
forehand and proved later.''
The Lick School. founded through the
generosity of James Lick, contains this
year, 220 boys and 80 girls. This number
is limited on account of the present ac-
commodations. which the school is fast
outgrowing. Forty counties of this State
are represented in the attendance and no
students from other States are admitted
except those born IN California. On en-
trance. all the students are on the same
footing, each going through a two-year
