the almighty dollar is the chief
attraction and the goal of every
effort. Perhaps it ought not to be
so; but that it is eo, no eane per-
son will dispute. Therefore, the
demand of the ago h for men and
women who can do the things
that must be done and make the
things that must be made, and do
and make them well—better than
any other people. This can only
be done by beginning early, it
is an historical fact that the
greatest mechanical genius has
been developed in the older coun-
tries, where the same branches
have been followed by father and
sons for many generations, thus
affording the advantages of early
training. All pupils in public
schools should have the advan-
tage of manual instruction and
training. If American agricul-
ture and horticulture are to main-
tain their supremacy, these
branches must be taught in the
primary schools and perfected in
the agricultural colleges, These
branches derive Importance from
the fact that this country is
and must for centuries remain
the main reliance of the
world for sustenance. We must
be prepared to meet the w< rll
and much of our own country
that ia gradually losing its sei'~
sustaining resources. Therefore,
this office must be performed by
the great agricultural South and
Wear, whose youth must be pre-
pared for the task in such man-
ner ae to defy competition. This
can only be "*ione by a com-
prehensive system of agricul-
tural education that begins at the
beginning and ends only when
the work is complete.
The great army of girls who
are now forced by changed social
conditions to become self-sup-
porting must also be armed with
the weapons of industrial warfare
that society has forced upon
them. The demand is impera-
tive for the industrial education
of girls, and to deny them this
boon is rank injustice, and op-
position can come from no other
source than jealousy and fear of
competition. If women are to be
self-supporting, they must not be
denied the means of learning
how to do It well and triumphant-
ly. The men who are leading in
{(lis reform are confident of suc-
cess. It arty would put a stumb-
ling block in the way of its com-
plete success, let his name be
anathema.
