MANUAL TRAINING IN SCHOOLS
Superintendent Crane Delivers an Ex-
cellent Lecture Before the Political
Equality Club

Superintendent Crane Delivers an Ex-
cellent Lecture Before the Political
Equality Club.
The members of the Political Equal
ity Club and many of their friends
gathered in the east court room on
Wednesday evening and listened to a
most excellent lecture by Superintend-
ent w. I. Crane. of the city schools, rela-
tive to manual training in the city
schools. Mrs. Alma G.. White, super
visor of drawing in the schools, exhib-
tied for inspection specimens of the
work in drawing done in the various
grades of the schools.
Mr.. Cranes subject was Manual
Training in the Schools" He said that
his purpose was to prove that the train
ing of the hand has a much larger part
IN education than is usually conceded.
What he wished to advocate was not
schools where boys are taught trades,
but where the hand is trained as the
servant of the mind so that 1t may ex-
press anything the mind can think. lie
showed how the little child takes the
world thru his senses, how he builds up
rev combinations in his brain, how he
has but two channels of expression, the
tongue and the hand. He then showed
that a mans value to society is proper
toned exactly to his power of express
sion; that is, a man who is trained TO
receive impressions, to think, and to
think out great combinations in his
brain, but who can not express these
conceptions, has absolutely no value to
society Mr.. Crane showed that all hu-
man expression can be classified under
the following forms:
/. Mechanical Arts.
g Domestic Arts.
3. Landscape Gardening.
4. Sculpture.
5. Painting.
s. Architecture.
z. Music.
3. Languages.
OF these eight forms of expression the
tongue can only express part of two,
vocal music and spoken language,
whereas the hand must express the
others, thus showing that the only hui
man expression that abides is that thru
the hand. BY failing to educate the hand
to be able to express the mind, We edu-
cate the child's mind and wall 1T in. The
most highly educated man in the world.
with useless hand, would be compelled
TO live in a cavern with what nature
provided him, but the speeches. man,
with trained hand, would have every
comfort Of life excepting vocal music
and speech. He pleaded for the under
standing and expressive man. Labor
troubles come about because one man
has the trained mind and the other the
trained hand.

Within the next sixty days a new in

small and grow with it's business. The
first building erected, which will be
used for the present will be 40xS0 feet,
and will stand close to the Northwest
ern packing house switch, in order that
railway facilities will be easily Access
sible. George Sellers, of this city, and
William S. Montgomery, OF Vienna
township, are building the concern and
will operate it, manufacturing what
will be known the the Northern
King"
Mr.. Sellers is the patentee of the new
thresher and is not going it blindly, for
he has had an opportunity to test the
machine thoroughly during the past
three years. He secured the patent
four years ago and since that time has
built three machines. Each has had the
hardest kind of wear and has made
general run thruout the country. The
past season has been the best kind of
a test for separators, and Mr.. Sellers
claims that his machines have done all
that he expected of them.
The Improvements over the general
run of separators are numerous in the
Northern King" Principally among
ing double separating rack instead of
one, and an improvement in the fam
ming apparatus. It makes no difference
whether the grain has been water
soaked or not, the separator does the
work just the same. and does not clog.
Mr.. Sellers and Mr.. Montgomery ex-
pect to have their building completed,
ready for operation, within sixty days.
A number of machines have already
been contracted for and will be the
first ones constructed. While the COM
pany does not expect to be able to
as cheaply as larger con-
Germs, their machines will be placed on
the market at the same price, in direct
with the trust. Aside
from the threshing machines the COM
pany will handle engines. feeders,
stackers and weighers, in fact every
thing belonging to the thresher trade,
and will do an extensive repair business
Mr.. Sellers thinks that by starting his
business in small way it will gradual
ly grow and in time will become one of
the leading industries of the city.
