THE SPIRIT OF CRAFTSMAN
SHIP 4

When the industrial system passed
from the period of little groups to
that of great organizations and factor
les, a certain spirit of craftsmanship
was lost, and it is difficult to recover
it.
Many people feel that the loss of
this spirit more than offsets the gains
taht modern machinery brings in.
They look back to the old time me-
chanic who worked by hand in some
little shop, and produced a COM
pleted article, or at least an important
part of an article. Under those con-
ditions he took great deal of pride
in his jwol'ks He acquired a reputa-
ton for high quality of craftsman
ship, and for the speed with which
he could turn out product Of fine
workmanship.
To-day when the workman is but
n little cog in some vast mechanism,
it is hard for him to feel the same
pride in his product and the same de-
sire to make himself perfect in his
craft. lh.
The condition pevailing at the
present moment accentuate this ten
dency. Labor is very scarce. Peo-
pie feel almost too sure of their jobs
They often think that if their work
is unsatisfactory, no one else can be
found to take their ulaces, so they are
at liberty to do their task in a medi-
OGRE way.
The great problem which the mod
ern producer has to solve, is how to
give the workers personal interest
in the thing they are doing, pride
III the product they turn out, with
which they shall feel themselves iden,
titled. The employer must find some
basis on which to stimulate the loyal
interest of every worker in his poo
