Some Conditions Affecting Problems of Industrial Education in 78 American School Systems During the closing weeks of the school year 1912-1913, the Division of Education of the Sage Foundation undertook an investigation in cooperation with the superintendents of schools of some 78 American city school systems. The study included all of the cities of between 25,000 and 200,000 population which were not so suburban in character as to be in reality subsidiaries of larger cities and in which the school authorities were able to cooperate. The object of the investigation was to gather facts concerning the boys in these cities who had reached the limit of the compulsory attendance period and the fathers of these boys. The purpose of this study was to secure a more definite fact basis for thought and action in the field of industrial education. Data for girls were not included for the reason that 13 year old girls are in the main distributed through the same grades as are 13 year old boys and the occupations of their fathers are in the long run identical with those of the fathers of the boys. Hence the study would have produced the same results if data for girls had been included and would have entailed nearly twice as much work. In each case the results were secured for all of the 13-year-old boys in the public schools of these cities at the date when the facts were gathered. The aggregate number of cases studied was 22,027. The facsimile on page 4shows the type of card used to gather the original data. These cards were supplied by the Division of Education of the Foundation. The data were gathered by the local school authorities and the results were tabulated by the Foundation. In cities having separate schools for white and colored children, the data were gathered for the white boys and their fathers only. Thirteen-Y ear-O ld Boys in Every Grade from Kindergarten
