The Boy's Book of Mechanical Models (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Boy's Book of Mechanical Models

There is too much Old stufi' in our ways Of learning. The boy Of to-day is more ingenious than his father, and is more handy at analyzing mechanical things. Give a boy a knife and some spools and a piece Of tin, and he will make anything from a submarine to a flying machine, and the thing he makes will work when it is done. Many Older men, by neglect ing their mechanical instincts, have killed these possibilities in themselves.
