Excerpt from Lectures Upon Drawing: In the Three Grades of Primary, Grammar, and High Schools of the City of Boston Delivered, in1S 81, in the Hall of the Girls High School. Addressed To Teachers Of Primary Schools Only. Me. C.C. Perkins, Chairman of meeting, briefly addressed the teachers. Mr. Smiths Address. It is now ten years since the Industrial Drawing Act of this State of Massachusetts was passed by the Legislature, approved by the Governor, and became law. By it the educational and industrial value of drawing was recognized. The place assigned to it was that of an element in general education on the plane of reading, writing, and arithmetic not an optional but a required study, and to instruction in which every child in Massachusetts, whether to the manor born, or the stranger within her gates, has an inalienable right. It is nearly ten years since the city of Boston, following her instincts of obedience to the law, and taking her claimed position as a leader in the van of educational progress, seriously set to work to accomplish what this law required. What has been done, with this object in view, by city and by State, during the past ten years, is not altogether unimportant in the history of education here; but as both you and I have taken part in this period of educational development, and are therefore familiar with its features, though we can hardly be considered judges of its character, there is no need for dwelling at length upon details of the past. But it may not be unprofitable to us, remembering the purpose for which we are assembled here to-day, if, after these ten years of our joint labors, I should briefly summarize some of the purposes we have kept in view, and the results of experience we have acquired.
