THE trade of the machinist is peculiar in that it is a preparation for so many positions outside of it. It takes a man of good natural ability and of considerable education—not always from books—to make a first-class machinist; so that when one is well qualified he is also prepared for many other openings. The aim of this work is to point the way of advancement to those who become fitted to assume these responsibilities and rewards. The advanced machinist is a work of sterling merit, a few of the hundreds of subjects are here named, but they in no way show the scope of this work, which must be seen to be appreciated: A Course in Machine Shop Mathematics; Various Measuring Instruments and Their Uses; Screw Cutting; Boring; Milling; Drilling; Grinding; Punching and Shearing; Bolt Cutting Machinery; Special and Auxiliary Machines; Shop Management: Work Shop Receipts and Devices, etc., etc. The personal character of the book appeals to all in any way associated in the machinery and allied trades. This book is a companion volume to Progressive Machinist and is uniform in binding and style, but more advanced in the subject of Machine Shop Practice, containing about the same number of pages, illustrations, etc. PRICE, $2, Postpaid.
