Excerpt from Industrial Booklets

"Industrial Booklets" is one of the three books of the Elementary Industrial Series for young folk. It has been prepared with a view of helping to meet the demand for more definite material for the industrial booklet work that is now done so generally in elementary grade and rural schools. It is conceded that much of the agricultural and industrial work should be correlated with the language and composition lessons, and at least emphasized, if not taught entirely in this manner.

Of recent years many interesting topics have been discussed and booklets shown at the county and state school exhibits. Much valuable and original work has been done. But teachers and pupils have been handicapped in not having at their disposal enough definite reference material. Students cannot be expected to make up their own outlines entirely and the teacher often does not have the time to help.

This little book is really a manual for the language and composition classes, then, rather than an industrial book, like the other two of the series. It is intended for boys and girls in junior high schools, upper grades, and rural schools, and may be used for either oral or written work. Many more topics are suggested and outlines given than can be developed in any one school. There is, therefore, opportunity to provide a definite course for several years" booklet work, taking a different phase each year, and a choice of subjects to meet the local conditions. As a textbook in the hands of the pupil it will save time and make the booklet work more definite and somewhat uniform, although it is not necessary that all members of the class work out the same outline.
