COMPANY TRAINSAUTO MECHANICS

Franklin Concern Opens School to

Educate Employes forFactory

WILL GIVE FOUR-YEAR COURSE

Graduates Expected to Become

Future Department Headsof Plant

In order to provide thorough train-Ing in practical mechanics, Including

both text book and manual work, theH II Franklin Manufacturing com-pany, manufacturer of autoniouiica atSyracuse, N. V., hus established wnat

It designates as a technical class, forWhich it provides a four-year course ofInstruction.

The work of this elnss is th« latestdevelopment of a sohool which thecompany has for some time maintainedas a part of its organization, designat-ing It us the training division. Courses

previously maintained have been lor

the Instruction of automobile repairmen, chauffeurs and salesmen, for use

in the company's own business.The company maintains that con-

tinued training of young OMB in me-chanical and Industrial work is iome-thlng which is bound to be perma-nently productive of good, both in thelocality immediately affected and inlie eoinmunity at large. The technicalclass provides for the admission of ap-

plicants not only from Syracuse andits surrounding towns, but from dls-tant pnrts of the country as well. Ina statement explanatory of its aim In

tho establishment of this technicalclass the Franklin company says:

"We believe in developing the youngmen of today. That there has been alack of this developmnt this company

certain. With this In mind thetechnical class in tho training divisionof the company has been established.This branch of our work Is under theImmediate charge of a competent In-structor, who is a graduate of the mechanlcal course of Purdue university.

"Students entering this course havemany advantages which werslblo under the old-fashioned apprentlcisystem, where a boy was turned looseto the tender morels of this or thatparticular foreman. Under our planin addition to the regular work, which

is the regular work of manufacturing,the student li given Instruction undercompetent supervision and manage-ment.

\u25a0\u25a0lie will be started on the simpler

forms of work, such as drilling1, center-ing, etc., and will be advanced accord-ing to his ability and application. HeWill always bo under the general direc-tion of the Instructor, and each stu-dent will secure the same kind andamount of Instruction.

"As far as possible the instructor willlook after students.both in and out ofthe plant. He will endeavor to seathat they have fair treatment andproper instruction; will assist in set-tling their shop grievances; will en-deavor to nee that the student does notidle away his time, but puts forth hisbest efforts in all his work."

That It is tJir> intention of the com-pany to have the class afford its mem-bers' an opportunity for advancementi.i Indicated by a further statement, Inwhich the company nays:

"ItIs the desire and aim of the com-pany to provide, such a course of prac-tical instruction that willfit persons forpositions of usefulness and responsi-bility In the company's service. it lathe company's hope that In the time to

come .-ill supervising- positions may befilled by those who have graduatedfrom Its technical classes.

"Itis also the belief of the companythat the best results will be obtainedby allowing the student freedom toleave and by allowing the companyfreedom to dismiss any student when-ever it deems It proper so to do. It isexpected, however, that the advantagesof the course will be sufficient to holdtho student during the entire fouryears."

In more ways than one this course Isdesigned for the benefit of such youngmen as are mechanically Inclined, butare without the means or opportunityof securing the special training whichis to he had In a college or school oftechnology. The feature which makesthe course particularly attractive tosuch young men Is that during the en-tire four years they are employed ata definitely predetermined wage, grad-uated from 8 cents an hour at the startto 20 cents an hour at the end, with abonus of $100 at the time of the awardof the school diploma for completionof the course. This pay Is consider-ably above that commonly Riven toapprentices and is used as an incentiveto secure good material.

CODBia IS KXTEJfSIVE

In two periods of two hours eachweek the following class or textbookwork will be taken up: Arithmetic,ten weeks; algebra, forty weeks; planegeometry, fifty weeks; trigonometry,twenty-five weeks; elements of ma-chine design, twenty-five week?: shopmathematics, fifty weeks; mechanicaldrawing, first two years; analysis ofmachines, last two years: shop super-vision, short course. Lectures will bogiven from time to time.

In the factory work is included drill-ing, milling, lathe work, bench work,gear \u25a0haper and automatic screw ma-chine work, grinding, tool work, smallassembly and tool designing.

To be eligible for entrance to thetechnical class an apllcant must he be-tween the ages of 16 and 20 years, andmust have bad a grammar school edu-cation or Its equivalent. He must bophysically sound and of good characterand appearance. The first twelve weekswill lie a probation period, that timebeing designated as a term of trial.If satisfactory at the end of that pe-riod, the course dates back from thebeginning of the period of trial.

Each year in the course consists of2TOD working hours, making a total of10,800.

Inasmuch as no contract is mad

the attractiveness of the course to holdthe men to complete it. It Is Intendedto train the mind as well as the hand,and make it possible to grasp the op-portunity afforded In the desire of thecompany to hereafter till the super-vising positions in its factory withgraduates from It I own technicalclasses.
