serting that Tammany has gathered a

license TO carry on their business with

The Training of the Engineer
Are Small Colleges Better Than Large
Ones?

In ''The Engineering Magazine" a
writer comments on the fact that the
largest and best equipped American
colleges apparently do not turn out
as many successful engineers as the
smaller institutions. He thinks that
this is due to two causes: First, the
larger colleges present so many
courses of instruction that the stu
dents attention is distracted: ana.
second, that in the smaller colleges
the student comes more directly Ill
contact with the instructor, and from
the less perfect equipment has more
opportunity to develop his ingenuity
These reasons may have something
TO do with the results, but there IS
another, which the writer in question
has overlooked, and which is possibly
more potent than either. This is that
class of boys adapted to the work
will be found studying engineering at
the smaller college Most of the
smaller colleges give the poor student
better opportunities for taking the
course than a place like Harvard or
Yale affords; and he can work his
way through without having his feel
ings hurt by being classed by himself.
This condition attracts the self-re-
speeding farmers boy or the son OF

contr1vance, and inheriting a certain
facility for it from father who prob
ably had to mend his own hen-house
and run his own furnace. These stu
dents take a course in engineering for
love of the work and as a means OF
securing good places in the world, not
because they happen to choose that
profession. They are trained 70 think
for themselves, not to wait for ;

They have had to earn some of the
money for their instruction, and they
are determined to make every penn,
