Excerpt from Problems in Woodworking Realization of the difficulty in obtaining drawings of good models which can be given as class exercises A has led to the preparation of these problems. The aim has' been to save teachers the labor of making draw ings and blue prints of models, many of which are in general use at the present time. No attempt has been made to plan a course of study Or to arrange the models with any special regard to a logical order of exercises, but for convenience they have been grouped by grades. No models have been included which have not been successfully made by boys m the three upper grammar grades. It is not intended that artisans or others with little or no experience in teaching and less knowledge of educational principles shall use these drawings and labor under the mistaken idea that they are teaching manual training. In put ting these drawings into the hands of teachers, it is hoped that the effect may be to provide additional time for the solution of new problems instead of tending to make the work more definitely formal and lifeless. In the hands of the progressive teacher, there will be little danger of the latter. Many of the problems can be presented to the class and worked out in various ways, according to the individuality of the different pupils. Whenever possible, the work should be correlated with the regular work of the school - the science, arithmetic, written work, physical training, and especially the drawing or art work. Such a plan results in a great saving of time to the manual-training teacher while it gives more life to other subjects. The sources of the models have been acknowledged as far as possible on the plates, but special mention is made of the number of drawings used by permission of Gustaf Larsson, principal of the Sloyd Training School, Boston, Mass. In the preparation of the work the criticisms of Charles A. Bennett, editor of the Manual Training Magazine, have been especially helpful and suggestive.
