Abstract
TECHNOLOGICAL education may be defined as the development of those sides of learning which will enable us to extract the highest possible good from the resources of the world, and in the process to make life at least endurable and, if possible, pleasant to the maximum number of people; to avoid waste and extravagance in both production and use; to keep and leave the world beautiful and peaceful; and to do all this with such a margin of economy as to deplete as little as possible our children's heritage in the earth of which we are but tenants for life.
