Mr. C. is in charge of it as instructor. There are many other schools of thiskind in connection with machine shops,all of which are doing an important workin the education of the future machinist,but there are none too many. Every ap-prentice should learn as much as he canof mechanical drawing, for so much ofthe work in a shop is built with drawingsand blueprints for a guide that it is anecessary part of a machinists educationto be able to read these drawings cor-rectly. While ability to use drawings in layingout work does not imply ability to make thedrawings with all the details, yet a coursein the draw-ing office fits a young man.
