Manual Training School For Skilled Joiners Proposed
A meeting at South Congregational Church discussed founding a first class manual training school on Harrison avenue to train joiners. Dr. Edward Everett Hale outlined plans for a three year program with four to six hours of tool work daily and two to three hours of related study, seeking $25 000 in start up funds and scholarships to recruit at least forty pupils. Speakers, including Mr. Amory and Mr. Paul, argued that private enterprise can launch the project and stressed the need to elevate the status of craftsmen, offsetting a cultural bias against skilled labor.
