Excerpt from Why a Boy Should Learn a Trade: The Workman as a Citizen, Reward for Skill and Energy
It is important to be a Mechanic in this great mechanical age.
It is advantageous to be a first class Mechanic; for he receives the highest wages.
Do not neglect to learn while you are young.
Do not miss an opportunity. Ambition in youth means comfort in age.
Five years spent in learning a trade is like sowing a crop; it may give you forty years of harvest.
