MANUAL TRAINING
PRODUCTS SHOWN
On Thursday Evening at Shop,
Over Ats.
Citizens Invited to Inspect the
Work of Boys--Some Me-
chanicaI Drawing.

On Thursday evening, May 27, the
work of the manual training depart
ment of the public schools will be
on exhibit in the shop over Ats
grocery store. The domesticy science
laboratory will be open for those who
have not seen the equipment in this
department. Some needle work,
never before shown, will be in this
exhibit.
Manual training has been offered
during the year to the three upper
grammar grades, and as an elective
in the first two years of the high
school. About so grade boys and
half as many high school boys have
been enrolled. Grades six and seven
have come one day a week for 80
minutes; grade eight, two days a
week for 80 minutes each day.
The work done in the grades has
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1915-05-26

been of an elementary nature, the
making of small articles from wood,
such as sleeve boards, necktie racks,
stationery boxes, and foot stools.
The making of these articles, to-
gether with some others, has involved
the fundamental processes essential
to the proper mastery of tool technique.
In the high school the boys have
come five times week for a period
ranging from 20 to 80 minutes day.
These boys, however, have not spent
all of their time working in wood.
Something more than a third of the
year has been spent in elementary
mechnical drawing-the subject so
meaningless to the layman, but so
essential to the mechanic of whatever
line. In the earlier stages of the
work these boys made articles involv'
ing processes, which like the grade
problems necessitated an understand
ing of the how, and some skill in the
use of tools. Six problems in all
were made-but in order to appreciate
what they are, and what they mean to
the boys who made them. you might
come to the shop on Thursday even
ing next, between the hours of seven
and nine and see for yourself what
year of manual training can do, and
then look forward to a night in
May, 1916, and see what two years
of manual training will do.
