DIR. LARKINS'S FUNERAL
TO BE HELD TONIGHT
Manual Training Highs Principal
Credited with Success of Idea

Manual framing HlBn lTihCipdi
Credited with Success of Idea
DR.. Charles Darius Larkins, principal
Of the Manual Training High School IN
Brooklyn and the man who developed
the manual training idea in that Dor
ough, died Sunday at his home IN 20
Argyle Road. He was sixty-three years
old Funeral services will be at his
home at 8 o'clock tonight.
To Dr. Lsrkns is attributed the
credit for the great success and wide
sphere OF usefulness which the Manual
Training High School has attained.
When he came 10 BROOKLYN twenty-nine
years ago as mathematics teacher IN
the Boys High School the manual train
ing idea was still an experiment IN the
schools Of this country questionable
experiment even. A small minority IN
the Board Of Education, including City
Superintendent Maxwell, was sdyocat-
ing it timidly. ....
DR.. Larkins saw the possibilities OF
manual training and constantly urged
that Brooklyn give IL a trial. IL was
logical therefore that he should ulti-
mately become the head Of Brooklyn 3
Manual Training High School, which
now has more than 5000 pupils. The
school will close to-day as a tribute 10
him. -, 80,
DR.. Larkins was born at Smithyille,
y. Y. and chose teaching as his pro
fession soon after he had received his
bachelors degree from Alfred Univer-
sity. The widow and one daughter
