Excerpt from The Wilmerding Life, Vol. 7: March, 1910 Mr. Chairman, Teachers and Pupils of the Wilmerding School: I am glad to have the privilege of speaking to you today about trade schools. When Mr. Merrill asked me to speak to you he said there was only one condition. And that was that I speak not over fifteen minutes. That reminds me of a story I heard. A speaker got up before an audience and asked what he should speak about. A little boy in a corner of the room called out, About a minute, sir. I am in entire sympathy with trade schools because my parents had the good sense to teach me to work with my hands, and that knowledge has been of as much value to me as my university education.
