To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Make a collection of the different kinds of wood which you know. Which are hard? Which are soft? Which will do for shafts? The pupils are shown how to make stone knives, how to put handles on them, and how to collect stones good for flaking. They are instructed in primitive methods of signaling. They boil water by the first method of boiling — dropping hot stones into skins full of water. They make message sticks, collect the calls of birds, and describe methods of dressing skins, using such so...ngs as were sung by the cave men in stamping upon them. These are only a few of the many things that the HANDICRAFTS «07 children do. That they are fascinated goes without saying. But mere interest amounts to little. It is of more importance that the work have some intelligent idea behind it. This it undoubtedly has; for here we find in their early beginnings the great processes which we now use in the more advanced form. Modern indus- tries could not go back to these ancient forms because they are too slow and too laborious, but they suit children exactly.
