Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Closing Exercises of the Pennsylvania Museum and School of Industrial Art: Held at Memorial Hall, Fairmount Park, Philadelphia; Saturday, May 31, 1890 at 3: 30 P. M
Besides, in comparison with what remains to be done, all that we or anybody else have accomplished in Industrial Art Education amounts to very little. The very principle for which the School stands is still only recognized as fundamental to all higher industrial progress in a halting and half-hearted kind of a way. The average legislator and the average school committee-man still approach the subject with many doubts, and reservations, and misgivings still vaguely comprehend its economic and educational importance, and give it still a begrudging and feeble support.
