Excerpt from Abnakee Rugs: A Manual Describing the Abnákee Industry, the Methods Used, With Instructions for Dyeing
The industrial experiment known as the Abnákee Rug Industry is the result of a chance interview held in a New York studio. The subject under discussion was the relation of the individual to society at large, and particularly the duty a trained craftsman owes to a rural community, if he has made one his home. This is a question which eventually must find more and more place in thoughtful minds.
In the ebb and flow of humanity prosperous people from the cities are seeking homes in the country in greater numbers than ever before, at the same time that energetic men and women bred in the country are seeking their fortunes in the cities. It is needless to enter upon the problems resulting from this drift to the cities. One does not need to be much versed in economics to know that it means overcrowded population, great numbers of the unemployed, increasing difficulties for the individual to get even a foothold, save in the most menial employments, and all the attendant evils of close quarters, bad ventilation, disease, increasing pauperism and crime.
