Excerpt from The Teacher's Hand-Book of Sl???jd as Practised and Taught at N??????s: Containing Explanations and Details of Each Exercise These and other deviations from the methods of the carpenter are made not in ignorance, but of set purpose, and have their grounds in the com prehensive principle that all method in Sld must aim in the first place at the physical and mental development of the pupil, and only at the production of articles in so far as this subserves the primary aim. In close connection with this stands the question of the place occupied in the system by the articles produced, tie, by the models. Clear as this question appears in the light of the fundamental principles on which educational Slo'jd is based, the idea still seems to prevail to some extent that, if the principles are accepted, the Nazis models must also be accepted unconditionally, and that the two stand and fall together. So far is this irom being the case that, at the present time, one series of Na'as models is gradually becoming English in its character, and only waits further sug gestions from English teachers to become entirely so. The sole reason that it still contains models which do not entirely fulfil the condition of being familiar and useful in the homes of English children, is that English people have hitherto been unable to suggest satisfactory substitutes. The models are merely the expression of the system, and to carry out that system thoroughly they must be national in their character, and ought, therefore, to vary in their nature with the countries into which Sld is introduced as a subject of instruction. AS this translation, like the original, is the work of more than one writer, it remains to add that the book has been translated into English by Mary R. Walker, with the assistance of William Nelson on all points relating to technical knowledge and technical terminology.
