These workers will operate machines which are important to our way of life. We should appreciate, then, the co-operative efforts of government, industry and labour in the field of employee training* In schools and in factories our workers, young and old, are given the opportunity to.develop new and specific skills in every field of business and industrial activity* For instance, every effort on the part of workers to become proficient in the art of shaping and moulding copper and hrasst will mean greater industrial progress—will help to make Ontario a finer place in which to live and work.
