The world gives its admiration not to those wTho do what nobody elseattempts, but to those who do best what multitudes do well.—Macaulay. 48 State Manual Training ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING. The course in architectural drawing will always be one of the im-portant studies in drafting, because architecture is so closely related tolife. Every one expects to build a home, and the greatest difficulty withwhich home builders have to contend is that, when filled with the en-thusiasm and the desire to see their vision realized, they have plunged inthe task without any preparation in planning arrangements, conven-iences, or a knowledge of costs of materials, and the laws governingbuilding and sanitation. Consequently, many changes are found neces-sary as the building progresses, and the final cost will often be far inexcess of the first estimate, for the contractor or carpenter must base hisestimate upon the actual cost of materials and workmanship plus hisprofit, and any change in the plan means a change in the materials down and rebuilding of work means waste of material and addedexpense for extra time put in by the workmen.
