They exhibited mechanical aptitudes of all sorts, and far in advance of other peoples, which aptitudes necessity forced them to direct largely toward the devising of contraptions to ease the burden of their subsistence toil. This ingenuity has been transmitted, and this direction has persisted, until now we have wrought a highly complex combination of machinery, much of which has the sole purpose of eliminating physical effort, or of providing for our amusement. This machine for living is so complex it requires that we must train and educate large portions of our manpower to service and operate it, and many of our gainful occupations are based upon its creation and maintenance. Our secondary schools have met the necessity for training, albeit at the expense of time otherwise available for the study of the humanities, the discussion of philosophy, and the plain contemplation of the human soul.
