And yet with all this wonderful development of the machines themselves and the design of what are termed automatics, the workman has not lost his skill. In fact, one trip to a well organized scientific machine shop will teach any skeptic that the intelligent workman who has contributed so largely to the mechanical developments of the past twenty years is more skilled, more intelligent, certainly better paid, and more interested in his work than ever.
