INDUSTRIAL DEPARTMENT

Manual training is one of the distinctive features of the training-school. We have at present a tailor shop, a broom shop, a printing office, and the farm, the work in each department being done by students, under the direction of competent workmen. In view of the superior advantages of any school situated in the country, away from the artificial life of the city, the managers of Battle Creek College are looking forward to an opportune time to change the location of the school. When situated as the Testimonies tell us that all our schools should be, it is hoped so to improve the industrial departments that the school can afford an opportunity for a large class to work their way through school, as well as to solve some of the educational problems which to-day confront the world.GCB April 2, 1901, page 16.8
