M anuaI Training Schools.

The manual training school, shortly to
be opened in Windsor for the benefit of
girls as well as boys, is very commend
able move on the part of the school man
agement. Many boy grows up to man
hood without having acquired thorough
knowledge of some useful trade, and
later in life finds himself almost stranded
in the industrial world, just because of
the fact that he never learned to be a
skilled workman. There are hundreds
of young men in the State that are work
ing as day laborers, because they cannot
afford to go to another town and pay
their board with the meager pittance
that is doled out to young man in the
early stages of an apprenticeship.
OF course, in many cases, there is no
one to blame but the young man himself
or his parents; but if manual training
schools were opened in greater numbers
these young men and boys would then
be in position where they could learn
the rudiments of some useful art while
they were still living with their parents
and one of the greatest problems facing
Vermont at the present time would be
on the way to solution.
Give us more training schools of this
kind, and then if boy does not start oui
in life at least fairly well equipped to dc
his share of the worlds work, the fault
will lie either with his parents or him,
