Morgantown, w. Va, January Is
The third annual session OF the West
Virginia Society OF Civil Engineers
began here to-day with good attend
ance of the engineers from all over
the State The meetings are being
held in the assembly hall of the Exper-
iment Station. A number of alumni
OF the University are in attendance,
and the meeting is the largest since
the organization of the Society. Work
in the engineering departments of the
University has been suspended and
the students are devoting their whole
time to the entertainment of their
guests.
The meeting was called to order by
President A. L. White, of Wheeling.
The address Of welcome was deliver
ed by Prof. Robert A. Armstrong,
Vice President of the University Mr..
responded. DR.. Raymond spoke of
the work Of the Society and Of the
University for the profession and of
the importance Of one to the other.
The morning session was concluded
by the address Of the President, who
spoke in part as follows:
Another year has circled by, and
for the third time it becomes my duty
to address this Society. Happily the
speaker is not limited to any subject,
and my remarks will be somewhat
rambling"
Mr.. White dwe.t at length upon the
appropriateness OF Morgartown as
place for the Society's meeting, owing
to it's educational atmosphere, and
kindly people.
After brief appeal to all members
Of the allied professions TO join the So
ciety that they might work for mu-
tuai good, and better their aims. Pres
ident White cited some legislative en-
actments that West Virginia needs,
particularly to more rapidly develop
HER NATURAL RESOURCES
and place her upon the industrial and
economical plane upon which she be
longs. Among these he mentioned the
Economic and Geological Survey.
I'VE should have thorough, com
plete and accurate geological survey
of the entire State. The result of this
survey should be shown upon suitable
maps and charts, that would reveal
at glance the unsurpassed natural
wealth and advantages CT West Virgin
ia Every dollar wisely expended upon
this work will return hundred; yes,
a thousand-fold.
The commission should proceed as
posal will permit to establish and
mark with suitable permanent monu
ments the true meridian in each coun-
ty in the State. The magnetic bearing
OF each true meridian, when estab
lished, should be determined and re-
corded. The true meridian should con-
troll future surveys; the magnetic
meridian would be very valuable in
determining old lines
The determination and marking OF
true meridians, authorized by the Leg
islayure last winter, will be of little
practical benefit. unless the Legisla
ture enacts law compelling all sur
veyors to use it. Senate bill No. 1858,
prepared BY this Society at its PIT.
Pleasant meeting last year, with some
notifications, meets this requirement
and should become law. This bin
was introduced very late in the ses-
sion and passed the Senate. but could
not be reached on the House calen
dar.
