EXTRACTED TEXT FROM PAGE:



" The end of all education should be the development of a TRUE MANHOOD, or the natural, proportionate, and healthful culture and growth of all the powers and faculties of the human being—physical, mental, moral, and social; and any system which attempts the exclusive or even inordinate culture of any one class of these faculties will fail of its end—it will make mushrooms and monks, rather than manhood and

men."—JONATHAN B. TURNER 1853.

" Under the old system it was book in the morning, book in the afternoon, book in the evening—an unceasing round of studying what men have said about things. Under the better system of the various institutions for scientific and industrial education, the student passes frequently from study about things to study of the things themselves; in laboratory or work-shop, in draughting-room or museum, or in the field. Every science must now have its laboratory practice."—ANDREW D. WHITE,
