d The H-emR-es-H Al YNIVAL TRAI N r? MR. E. F. BURTON The school year of 1915-10, is the second year for Manual Training in the Bedford High School. With the present equipment, all the work is given in one year and it is purely an elective subject. The course consists of two parts, bench work and mechanical drawing. The subject is self-contained and requires no outside study. A period of eighty minutes is spent in the work room each day. Three days of the week are spent at bench work, and the other two days at mechanical drawings. The bench work consists of an elementary course in joinery, then some practical cabinet making. In the mechanical drawing work, the first semester is devoted to the elements of mechanical drawing, lettering, and the use of instruments, and the second to ticket making and practical drawing. The purpose of the Manual Training work is to develop the machanical ingeniut.v of the boys and give them some practical training for future work. 27
