the progress of the work:
"The night classes now meeting
at the high school are doing some
real good work. In the class of
mechanical drawing and blueprint
reading, the men are being given
instruction in drawing from actual
models which is far better than
taking theoretical problems from
books. These men are becoming
we'll acquainted with the theory
of photographic projection. There
are several men who are taking
their second year of work and are
progressing nicely. There are sew
eral men from Balfour who show
real talent.
"The class in woodwork is not
only receiving valuable instruc-
ton in the use of machines and
tools, but while doing this they
are making valuable pieces of fur
niture for their homes.
"The class in drafting meets on
Mondays and Wednesdays at 1880
to 900 p. m. and the class in shop
work meets at the same hour and
on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
"There are still several open
ings in each class for those who
might be interested. There are no
fees for this instruction.
