Wisconsin Thinks Peter and John Hobbs Educaons at Their
Trades As Important As Any Other Kind Of Education

MADISON, Wis, Jan. +. -
Peter Hobbs, as we have said, was
FL years old and his ambition, as
he toiled daily in the machine
shop, was to be a good machinist.
In fact. he wanted to be a better
machinist than the men about him.
How to accomplish this was a
puzzle, for how could he learn
from men who knew less than
he wanted to know?
One day a lecturer from the uni
versity extension course of Wis
consfn came to the factory and
from him Peter learned that the
state would teach him all there
was to know about the machinist's
trade, for very small fee, by cor
lrespondence. If he would get to-
gether 15 or 20 young machinists
who wanted to know more about
their trade, the university would
send a regular teacher to them
once a week, said the lecturer. and
they would receive personal les
sons.
1t din't take John long to avail
himself of the correspondence plan
and before many weeks he had
gathered the class and every
Thursday night they met to hear
the lessons of the machinist-expert
from the university.
John Hobbs, jr., too, found
out that the state of Wisconsin
was anxious to make q first-class
pattern-maker out of him. He was
an apprentice in a pattern shop,
but under the law his employer
gave him five hours a week on
salary to receive lessons in gov
ernment, history and other school
courses from special teachers sent
out by the board of education. 1t
was a case of the school teacher
following John into the factory,
but the lessons he received prom
ised to make a better citizen as
well as a better skilled laborer
out of him.
The next article will tell how
John Hobbs farmer brother was
helped in his business of farming
by the state of Wisconsin.
