Cody's boys became Jack's-of-all-trades in the industrial arts classes. In both shop and drafting courses they discovered natural abilities along their respective lines, and, with a sense of accomplishment, developed them. Starting with the basic fundamentals of woodworking, woodshop apprentices soon mastered the tools of their trade as they worked with hammer, saw, and sand paper to turn out attractive and useful objects. In the metal shop the boys were shown the correct way to temper steel to make it harder, and the making of aluminum casts to use as molds. First courses in drafting, as well as advanced courses, taught draftsmen to be exact, accurate, and neat in their design. Although the emphasis was placed upon developing the hands, cooperation among fellow shop workers and the values of safety were also stressed in preparation for a future job in industry. The progress man has made can be attributed to his ability to change the ideas in his head into useful objects with his hands.
