Praise for former teacher Wunn and Emerson shop work
Valley City residents and Normal school affiliates note the Bozeman Daily Chronicle praise for J. W. Wunn. Emerson High School's wood shop under his manual training program showcases projects praised for high finish, correct mechanics, and usefulness. The Mechanical Science approach aims to teach scientific principles, tool use, and student development rather than pure trades. The superintendent cites consistently superior student work and a low defect rate, hailing the program as a strong foundation for any future trades.
