Synopsis
Excerpt from The Artist's Guide and Mechanic's Own Book<br/><br/>Mecaamcs generally, having risen from families In the more humble stations of society, are not much favored with school education. Yet, in their case may be seen what is common in the allotments of Providence, that an evil is attended with a correspond ing benefit. Thus, if poverty obliges many a youth to resort to the workshop for means of subsistence, instead of spending his time under tutors in obtain ing from books the elementary instruction usually es teemed necessary to usefulness in life, it is a fact well known, that most mechanical pursuits are found favorable to mental developement. The fixtures of a mill, in multitudes of cases, seem to have answered about the same purpose in this respect, as the labora tory of the chemist, or the philosophical apparatus of the college professor. Instances have been frequent that the unlettered boy has risen, step by step, guided by his own energies, till he became distinguished for science and for inventions to bless the whole range of society. And it is believed, that no class in the community is more characterized than mechanics for the best of all possible endowments, the capability and habit of thinking for themselves.
