New York Alumni Reunion.

Forty of the Technology Alumni met atdinner at the Arts Club on February 9.President Pritchett was unable to be presenton account of his illness. Among those whoattended' were: Henry M. Howe, the metal-lurgist of Columbia University; George A.Freeman, Henry-D. Hubbard, Loring Miller,Alexander Rice McKim, T. Appickernell ofthe American Telephone Company,. A. C.Anthony, H. S. Bird, 1). A. Center, I. T.Crane, C. W. Rice, G. M. Yorke, R. N.Wheeler and S. R. Wadsworth.

The board of'management for the year waselected as follows: Alexandei RiceMK.i ,secretary and treasurer; C. D. Polloek' g.D.Hubbard, Charles A. Meade and Azel'Amnes,Jr., executive committee.

C. A. Meade acted as toastmaster. Prof.William T. Sedgwick spoke on technicaleducation, which he said had made great pro-gress in this country and had done much topromote its commercial and manufacturinginterests. While on a visit to England re-cently, he had come to the conclusion that thereason for the decline of the relative import-ance of England in trade and manufactureswas her failure to understand the importanceof higher technical education.

The South, he said,. needed badly a greattechnical school like Tech. If she had thisand we had more and still better schools, weshould not need to fear Germany, our 'onlyfuture competitor. Germany was placing heremphasis in education at the top.

Prof. Michael Pupin presented interestingdetails about his invention of the submarinetelephone. He gave some views, on wavepropagation, a feature of importance in tele-graphic and telephonic work.

Expert in Transportation.Professor William Z. Ripley has gone to

Washington, having been appointed expertin transportation to the United States Indus-

trial Commission. Some time ago ProfessorRipley testified before the commission, andhis grasp of the subject of transportation andhis wide knowledge exhibited in his testimonycaused the commission to consider the advisa-bility of securing his services. ProfessorRipley has accepted the appointment, andwill deal in special reports of the commissionwith such questions as railroad consolidation,capitalization and the operation of the inter-state commerce laws. The. commission haspublished five volumes already, but has notdealt with the phases of industrial develop-ment which have arisen out of the recentrailroad consolidations. He will be absent onhis duties probably for several months, buthas not sevei'ed his connection with theInstitute and will continue his instruction here.

New Chemical Society.A society has recently been formed con-

sisting of the. students of the senior class inchemistry and chemical engineering. It is tobe known as the "Senior Chemical- Society"and informal meetings will be held monthlyat the residence of Mr. Samuel Cabot onCommonwealth Avenue. Mr. Cabot is amember of the corporation and is on thevisiting committee for the above departments.

H-le has always taken great interest in these'courses and it was at his suggestion that thesociety was. organized. :

At the meeting held last Friday Mr. HenryHoward'of the Merrimac Chemical Worksread a paper on a new process for the manu-facture of liquid carbon dioxide. The appara-tus was shown and the solid product produced.Later in the year members will give shorttalks on their thesis work. This will giveadditional interest to the researches and tendto prevent 'the students -becoming narroweddown to their individual subjects.

The: officers .'are as follows: President;G. Victor Sammet,; Secretary, E. P. Beck-:with; Treasurers P. A. Koler. .... . .-

Electrical Engineering Society.

The Electrical Engineering Society recentlyenjoyed a very interesting trip to the new sta-tion of the Boston Electric Light Co. Thetrip was prefaced by a talk by Mr. Hosmer,who outlined the principal features of theplant as well as the general system of distri-bution employed by the company.

The works are situated in South Bostonand include, besides the power house and con-siderable surrounding land, as pacious deep-water wharf. The society under the guid-ance of Mr. Hosmer first visited this wharf,on which is a large apparatus for unloadingcoal. The coal is carried from there to alarge store-room-in the rear of the boilers,capable of holding 6,ooo tons.

From this store-room the party passed toa gallery at one end and near the roof of theboiler room, from which was obtained a verycomprehensive view of the- six batteries oftwo boilers each which operate the plant.The boilers are water tube, using Hawleydown-draft furnaces.

From the boiler room access was had toa . ..

another.r gallery overlooking the electricalpart of the plant. Here were seenatltargenumber of synchronoufs motors, each-' directconnected to two Brush arc machines. Gen-eral Electric three-phase alternators, at .i20alternations per minute, furnish an output ofabout 7,o000 kilowatts, 6,ooo of which is nearlyequally divided between the incandescent andarc systems.

The switchboard is conveniently arrangedand provided with two sets of bus bars, sothat in case of necessity a number of differ-ent combinations are available for the con-nections to the mains.

Every courtesy was shown to the membersof the society by Mr. Hosmer :and- theemployees of the company, and the trip wasthoroughly enjoyed by all.

The Technology Review.The " Inauguration number" of The

Technology Review, the issue for January,is full of interest to both graduates and under-graduates. The leading place is given to anappreciation of Mr. Augustus Lowell, whosedeath occurred last summer. Following thisis an account of the life and work of Mr.Silas W. Holman. Both articles are accom-panied by admirable likenesses. The mainpart of Thze Review is given over to a fullreport of the speeches of Mr. T. H. Liver-more, ex-President Crafts, Senator Lodgeand President Pritchett given at the inaugura-tion of Dr. Pritchett. The usual editorials,minor articles and undergraduate notes arepresent, the whole going to form one of thebest issues of The Review since its' installa-tion. [The Technology Review.

Commercial Education.

B3Y. PROFESSOR DAVIS R. DEWEY. '

During the past two years '-there' have been fre-quent references, not only in educational literaturebut in the utterances of men engaged in industrialand public affairs, to commercial education. Wehave had, to be sure, for many years commercial orbusiness schoolsi-" Colleges," as they are termedby the American spirit of extravagant characteriza-tion. The object of these schools has been to teachpenmanship, bookkeeping, accounts, typewriting andstenography,- accomplishments primarily designedfor the clerk, 'bookkeeper, and stenographer; and itis agreed that many of these schools'have undertakenthis practical training to good advantage.

The commercial education, however, which hasbeen the subject of more recent discussion, is of anentirely different kind; and it is .the purpose of thisbrief paper to consider the significance of this newmovement. It is' certainly a development in whichevery engineer engaged in the production of economicgoods should be interested.

The success of a business enterprise may beroughly described as depending upon two factors:first, the manufacture of goods at a low cost; andsecond, the marketing of these commodities whenonce produced. The engineer, is primarily engagedwith the first activity; and through the encourage-ment which has been given to technical education inthis country, the United States is takinhg a command-'ing- positibn:' il its ability to manufacture serviceablegd0ls'at a/low cost. Until recently the marketingof the product thus created has been a compara-tively easy pr6blem. As long as the business of anindustrial establishment' was confined within narrowlimits and -the factory, mine, or smelter was small,producing-for a restricted area, it was not difficult toniaster 'the conditions governing the successful sale 'ofthe goods. 'The two sidesof the business, the. tech-rical ,manufacture and -the commercial sale, wereeasily carried on by the same person. Trhe manu-facturer could without great effort gain the practicalexperience required for successful selling.

Conditions, however, are changing rapidly, so thatthe technical' and: the commercial sides of 'the busi-ness are -'being very definitely separated. The forcescontrolling manufacture relentlessly tend toward 'thecreation of an enormous manufacturingestablishment,

surrounded -by.a. group. of tsub-industries engaged inproviding the. semi-raw materials demanded in apro-du6tion, as well as in manufacturing the by-productswhich formerly went to waste.. - All this has beenbrought under one management and has made thetask of the producer gigantic as compared withformer days. On the other hand,.the problem' ofmarketing this 'enormous output, so various in itscharacter, has taken on a new aspect because of theeconomies of transportation, both domestic andforeign, which tend to annihilate space. Trade-ismore and more international. We thus' have a com-petitive movement which was undreamed of in' apre6Eding generation.

Now the question is whether there is any specialeducation which will fit' the man in charge 'of' themarketing or commercial end, to rneet these' n'ew'conditions 'with greater power and resourcefulness.Certainly for the' business which is likely to haveforeign competition, 'it does not require much' reflec-tion to suggest certain lines of study which will be help-ful if not imperatively necessary. The comnmerciamanagement should have knowledge of (i) ; the.markets of raw materials.; their 'territorial. distribu-tion and their accessibility to routes of transportation ;(2) routes- of commerce, including railroad andshipping lines; local' regulations -as to harbor andport-dues, dock' privileges; freight' rates, marine in-su'arib;e and charter contracts'; (3) restrictiorsi'/itk6eduortInWrnat'ional.:trade.'by tariffs, .including not only'a .kaoled.ge of our, tariff -but those of foreign cour-tries,. .including the regulations- of customs adminis-tration;-(4) the rights of American commerce asregulated ''by international law, and the' duties ofconsular officials, :and "(5)' official statistics of trade;as reported :'by' governments, boards of trade, orcommission mierchants, not only the sources butthe interpretation of these documents. Even inthose branches of business which do not have inter-national -:points of contact there is, an increasingnumber of subjects of which a knowledge wouldgreatly assist a young man in the successful executionof his duties. A :brief list of topics which mightwell engage- attention is here -given: Securities andinrvestments; domestic and foreign exchange; tax-ation; 'railroad practice ;.'clearing houses; stock andproduce exchange ; banking; trust companies; savingsbanks; bond business.and' note brokerage; patent:

and trade marks; corporations.; insurance, ard cpm-mercial law. - --

Specialization is the secret of modern de:pmentand success, and if it be true that this principle isto control the development of industrial activity asin other'fields of intellectual energy, it will be neces-sary that the commercial manager be as highly trainedwithin his field as is the technical producer orengineer. England and Germany, particularly thelatter, have already begun to recognize this modernphase of the problem. In this country there hasbeen some. realization of it, and so-called courses incommerce have been introduced into a half dozen ormore universities; too often, however, these newdepartments are simply re-assorted courses of eco-nomics and political science labeled under a newterm -" Commerce."

The commercial education of thefuture must beas practical and as intensive as that of the engineer.It may well be-asked if this can be done.,. While noclear answer can be given, it must be rememberedthat difficulties which faced engineering educationthirty or -forty years ago in this country were verygreat. There was no agreement as to what subjectsshould be taught, and as for text-books,- they' hadto be created through the slow accumulatiohn vilg-room notes. Engineering education as- it' is fofrild'today has been 'a matter of growth and experiment.It must be the same with commercial education. .Assoon, however, as- its need is seriously recognized, theway for its development will be found, and another:department will be added to the education of man,which will be genuine and sincere in its appreciationof the realities of life.

B. A. A. Meet.

The annual. open handicap games of theB. A. A. will be held in Mechanids Buildingnext Saturday evening. The meet is one ofthe leading events in the athletic and collegeworld,. and the number of entries promises asinteresting an evening as any of the formerones. As usual there are several dark horses,and several surprises are apt to be sprungand new records established.

As usual, the 40-yard dash has the mostentries. Harvard sends Dana and Larocy,and Ristine and Ellis of last year's footballteam. F. B. Scheuber, the Worcester Aca-demy dark horse of the meet two years ago,will this year run for' Hopkinson. Geotge-town will send her crack runner, Arthur

* -..

Duffy. Yale sends Franchot and Thomas;Holy Cross sehids Sullivan, and Somervillesends W. D. Eaton.

The high jump has such men- as Jones,of N. Y. University, last year's intercollegiatechampion; Carroll of Harvard Law; ArthurRotch, former captain of Harvard track team;I. K. Baxter formerlyof Trinity and Univer-sity of Pennsylvania; F. K. Baxter of M. I.T.; and Frank Conway of South Boston.

Champion Maxey Long, will be seen in the6oo-yard, and in the quarter and will bematched against Snow of Bowdoin ; Hastingsof Cornell; Schweppe of Harvard and Dowof Dartmouth. In the iooo-yard run willappear Moynihan of Holy Cross, Franchot ofYale, Buckley of Tufts, Crawford of Williamsand Dixon of Worcester High.

The two-mile run claims such men asAlex and Dick Grant; Taylor, Carter -andWilliams of Harvard, Kanaly of Cambridge-port, and Sandford of Knickerbocker A. C.The one-mile will probably go to AlexGrant, but will be hotly contested wiih Brig-nolia of Cambridge, and Dixon of WorcesterHigh.

The stars for the hurdles are Pbotter of

Williams, O'Connor of Exeter,. Scheuber ofHopkinson, and Thomas of Yale. In thefield events, Dick Sheldon of Yale, and RayEwey of N. Y. A. C. are the leaders.

The team races have been scheduled asfollows: - Harvard zvs. U. P.; Cornell vs.Princeton; Dartmouth vs. Columbia; Am-herst vs. Williams; Exeter vs. Andover;M. I. T. vs. Bowdoin; Boston Y. M. C. A. vs.Cambridge Y. M. C. A., and the class teamsfrom Harvard.

Technology at the B. A. A. Meet.With the opening of the second term comes

an increased activity in athletics, stirred upas they are by the nearness,of the B. A. A.games. These will be heldSatu a inFeb. i6, at Mechlanics Hall.

Technology is again matched with hervictorious rival of last year's relay team race,Bowdoin, and promises to do all in her powerto retrieve last season's defeat. The team willbe in good condition, though the meet comessoon after the vacation, and will probably bepicked from the following men, under thecaptaincy of W. W. Garrett, 'o ; -W. W.Garrett, 'oi; R. S. Franklin, '02; K. C.Grant, 'o2; A. W. Rowe, 'oI: G. C.Capelle, '02.

These men are working hard and conscien-tiously, and when our team comes upon thetrack it should receive such an ovation as tomake the men run the race of their life andbring victory to Technology.

Besides the team race we have severalindividual entries, and promise of several morebefore the entries close. Among the entriesare; - R. V. Brown, '02', in the 4o-yard dash;J. C. Croweil, 'o4, in the '4o-yd. and 440-yd.dashes; F. K. Baxter, 'oi, in the high andstanding broad-jumps; H. F. Peaslee, 'o3, inthe mile; and H. T. Winchester, 'o3, in the40-yd. dash and shot-put. Judging from theprevious work of these men, Technologyshould make a good showing... :

The Basket-ball Team.

Since the close of examinations the basket-ball team has played three games, winningone and losing two. On January 30th, theteam met Holy Cross at Worcester, HolyCross winning by i6 to 6. Lack of practicedue to the games following immediately afterthe examinations was the cause of Tech'sdefeat.

On February 6th, M. I. T. defeated theHaverhill Y. M. C. A., at Haverhill, superiorweight and energetic play winning the gameby 17 to I4. Last Saturday the Tech teamwas again defeated, Company E., 6th Regi-ment winning the game at Framingham by22kgoals to i, Tech's lack of teamn play andpractice being the cause of her defeat.'

Libbey is the star player on the Tech teamand has shown up splendidly in all the gamesplayed, and with the other excellent materialin Tech, Manager Peaslee hopes to get a teaminto the form shown before the vacation, whenthe men played with more spirit and betterteam play than they have shown lately. Itrests with the men themselves to produce ateam worthy of Technology, so that they canclaim recognition from the advisory council.In addition to the following schedule, ManagerPeaslee hopes to arrange games with Amherst,Brown, and other colleges, for Feb. 21, 22,

and 23, and March 9 and I3. The schedulefollows:

Feb. I3, Pawtucket Y. M. C. A. at Paw-tucket; Feb. I6, Newton Y. M. C. A. atNewton; Feb. i9, Harvard University atCambridge; Feb. 25, Watertown Y. M. C. A.at Watertown; Feb. 28, Tufts College atMedford; March 2, Fall River Y. M. C. A.at Fall River; March 5, Harvard Universityat Boston; March j6, Lawrence Y. M. C. A.at Lawrence; March 2I, Winchester Y. M.C. A. at Winchester; March 28, Lowell Y. M.C. A. at Lowell I March 30, Brown Univer-sity at Boston.

Yale, Princeton and Columbia will have atriangular bicycle meet -at New Haven thesecond week in May.

Minnesota hopes to arrange a game of foot-ball with Harvard next year. It will' probablybe played at Cambridge.

/t,:~~.. o£IO2f~._;;' . -~ .,;,, t _: .8 :,,,,, ,< u t. ....The annual boat-race between Annapolis

and the University of Pennsylvania will berowed at Annapolis May iith, on the SevernRiver.

The St. Mark's Hockey team defeated theM. I. T. team by 17 to o last Saturday. St.Marks excelled at every point, most notice-ably in team play.

A tax was levied on the student body atWesleyan to provide caps and sweaters forthe football team, and for the expenses of thedebating team.

The University of California is to inaugu-rate rowing by a four-oared shell race withthe University of Washington. The challengehas already been sent.

It is probable that if the International gamesbetween Yale and Harvard, and Oxford andCambridge be arranged, that they will beheld at the Pan-American Exposition in Buf-falo.

Harvard and Princeton have been unableto arrange for any games next spring betweenthe two universities, as the latter demandedthree dates. By complying with this request,Harvard claims that she would not be able toarrange her other games.

mittee of the' Athletic Association it was de-cided that the Athletic Association shouldhave direct control of all minor organizationsand that the election of all captains of athleticorganizations must meet with their approval.The recent organization of a basket-ball teamwas approved and permission was given it tocall itself a University organization.

Annual Meeting of N. E. I. A. A.The eleven colleges forming the New Eng-

land Intercollegiate Athletic Association wereall represented at the annual meeting held inthe Copley Square Hotel last Saturday. Thefollowing officers were elected: President,E. S. Goldthwaite, Williams; Vice President,H. S. Parker, Dartmouth; Secretary, Mr.Cleeland, Amherst; Treasurer, H. T. Win-chester, Massachusetts Institute of Technol-ogy; Executive Committee, Messrs. Walker(Bowdoin), Wells (Wesleyan) and Barton(Trinity.) The representatives present fromthe different colleges were as follows: Am-herst, J. L. Vanderbilt; Bowdoin, G. Row-land Walker and H. L. Sweet; Brown, E. S.Chase; Dartmouth, V. W. Gooch; Massa-chusetts Institute of Technology, H. M. Mc-Master, R. Murray and P. H. Perry; Tufts,J. Butler; Trinity, J. D. Evans; Williams,E. S. Goldthwaite; Worcester PolytechnicInstitute, E. W. Maynard and P. Loft; Wes-leyan, C. A. Ives; University of Vermont,E. McCarty.

Aside from the election of officers therewas no official business, but the question ofrunning the trial heats on the day beforeinstead of on the morning of the champion-ship meet, was discussed. This is done atthe Mott Haven games with excellent results.

Most of the colleges were in favor of thischange in the constitution, but as no noticestating thatthis action was contemplated hadbeen sent out four weeks ago, no actioncould be taken. It is understood that nothingregarding this matter can be done this year.

_

Verily, THE LOUNGER has been amiazed to observehow absolutely and completely illogical natural hap-penings occasionally are. 'rHE LOUNGER, from long ex-perience, had come to the conclusion'that nothing goodcould result from the semi-annual torment to which hehas recently been subjected, except perhaps a noticeto the effect that his further presence would be unnec-essary, but his latest discovery has overthrown all'THE LOUNGER'S theories and has proved that goodmay come out of almost anything. While in thecourse of earnest preparation for his examinations,THE LOUNGER took up a certain periodical known asThe [We/lesle), AMazinc, and for the benefit of hislong suffering readers THE LOUNGER appends his dis-covery, a clipping from a criticism in that paper onthe various college departmental columns:

"THE LOUNGER has the best of them all, however.A picture at the head of his column shows himsprawling in his easy-chair before a blazing fire, behindhim the soft light of a tall lamp,;in one hand a paper,in the other a pipe; and he is lazily watching thesmoke curl up against the dancing flames of the fire.His lot is truly a happy one ! Under such circum-stances it is small wonder that he can philosophize sodelightfully in a bantering, lightly humorous, and de-cidedly effective, suggestive .way,-over anything andeverything that comes along -- from a comment onthe phenomrnal rubber-like qualities of the cane inthe rush, to a direct allusion to the Secretary. Hishumor makes twists and turns sion itself and crops upmost unexpectedly in one place after another.. It isalways good-humnored, too. On the whole, THE

LOUNGER has the most delighitful personality of allwhom we meet among our exchanges." .

Now on the face of this interesting and highlyedifying' criticism if mighfit be assumed that THELOUNGER was publishing it simply to add glory to hisalready famous personality or in other words was cul-tivating a progressing case of swelled head, but THELOUNGER wishes to correct any idea of that sort atthe start. Aside from the natural and allowablepleasure of receiving proof that true worth is appre-clated, notwithstanding any aspersions of Techniqueto the contrary, THE LOUNGER would like modestlyto correct a few impressions, slightly erroneous, which

.he. fears have taken hold on the imagination- of thefair scribe, at the other end of the line. As to-theprimary, fundamental phrase in the first line, statingthat "THE LOUNGER, has the best of them all," hewould not venture to dispute so self-evident a fact;it is merely a. few matters of detail that concern himat present. That is, the too hasty Conclusion whichthe maiden has come to -in the statement, "His lotis truly a happy one!" Now as far as THE LOUNGER'Slimited gaze can extend, all he sees to justify this isthat well-known deception at the head of this column.If the fair Wesleyan were a co-ed at Tech - althoughTHE LOUNvGER would not be guilty of wishing anyonethat misfortune she would well knowv that theaforementioned cut was the horrible effect of a pipedream of the artistic editors on the morning after aclass dinner in the 'eighties, when such things asmixed drinks were but in their infancy. 'I'HELOUNG(;ER felt that this remark about his lot was sounwarranted that he even ventured to try to searchout his fair critic to invite her to visit the office someMonday morning to watch T'HE LOUNCGER writingagainst time, with the printer's devil on one side andthe editor-in-chief .on the other, both to givepiquancy to his effusions. When the first bevy ofbeauties he cast eyes on, however, turned and fledTHE LOUNGER relinquished his object and wended hisway homewards. 'T was a sad awakening.. THELOUNGER'S modesty again forbids him to remark onhis own philosophy and humor; he is glad; hbwever,that the editor found a name to call it besides D. T.As to the snake-like evolutions of it, THE LOUNt;ERfully agrees; in fact he could go farther and suggest,in addition to "twists and turns" one more veryobvious stage in the development "knots." THELOUNGER indeed feels that in the present state ofcomplacent self esteem he has reached he may pres-ently become tangled up in one, so he will close withthe wish that his " delightful personality." might in-duce a few of the innocent victims -who subscribedto THE TECH under his tutelage to pay up.

The smoke refuses to curl from THE LOUNGER'Spipe. His inspired appeal to the Sophomore Classwas futile,-a prophet has no place in his owncountry. Complinients, advice, threats, probation,all are of no avail. The germ of puerility still re-mains.-' Tis x 2.57. The lights are off; the stere-opticon is in full sizzle; the eager students closelyf6llow the gyrations of Charlie's pencil thrown uponthe curtain; the thirst for knowledge and research isrunning high, when spasm number one breaks uponthe awful stillness. . Another spasm and 't is done.Exit, Macbeth- the Sophomore Class goes to lunch.THE LOUNGER'S heart is full, his pipe is empty. Willthese erring, wandering microbes of belated infancynever die !
