Synopsis
Excerpt from Copyright 1910
Knowledge gained by the experience of others and put into practice by one's own exertions develops the brain.
A man cannot gain sufficient knowledge by his own experience alone; he must gain some of it from other sources if he intends to keep in the procession near enough to hear the band play.
The coming generation of overseers will need all the technical education available in their line of work in order to climb the ladder of success. Some of the present generation are sadly in need of it. Did you, as an intelligent weaver or loom fixer, ever have to work for an overseer who was deficient in intellect, thick headed, of poor judg ment and afraid to take a step outside of the beaten track, no matter how much laborious work he might save by cutting across; did you? Then you will appreciate the efforts herein made towards his education or eradication.
