THE ILLUMINATING HHo1NzzR

For the past twenty years little
band of tireless workers have been
specializing in one department Of mod
ern science This little coterie of men
has been dealing in the mysteries of
light and artificial illumination until
the practical application of their dis
coveries has given rise to q new pro-
fession-the Illuminating engineer.
A few years ago there were no men
who specialized on planning for artifi-
cial light. Such work was turned over
to the architect of every new building
and he did the bes. he could with his
meager knowledge of the subject. Now
tho illuminating engineer is a recog-
nized profession and his services arc
required wherever a large building is
being planned, be it public or private.
1t was the invention Of the electric
lamp in the early eighties that made
it possible to develop new and improv-
ed ideas in regard to correct lighting.
AT first the ingenuity of the embryo
Illuminating engineer was taxed to de-
velop new scenic effects for the the
.ters. Then began the study and ap-
plication of electric light for largo
halls and public buildings, while for
the lighting Of the home, the stores
and the churches, the simplest meth
DDS were long continued in use, with
out regard for the precise results that
might be obtained.
It was the invention of the more
powerful Illuminating which made it
nece ssary to have illuminating engin-
eers. Tho incandescent lamp, the i'm
proved arc lamps and the new metallic
filament incandescent lamps, such as
the new Tantalum and Tungsten gave
abundant opportunities for illuminat
ing effects, and at the same time Of
fered a wide field for tho study of
light concentration and human health
lighted.
So came into being the illuminating
engineer, born of necessity, and Sc
cure in position which grows in I'M
portance year by year. A word about
the new profession will show its sig
nificance.
All engineering involves questions of
economy. Mining engineers make a
systematic study of their profession,
that they may be valuable to their
employers in keeping them from vast
ing money on worthless claims. This
is also true of civil engineers, marine
engineers and all others. BY econ
omy here is meant not pinching but
the avoidance of waste; not the doing
without something that is needed but
tho caro- to get full use of it. The
best engineering, ordinarily, is that
which accomplishes the results wanted
at the least cost. Illuminating engin-
eering is no exception ITO this rule.
More important than the matter of
cost is the matter of selecting the
right sort of light, and 50 placing he
sources and directing the rays that
they will shine wher ewanted, without
discomfort to the user. The drowsi-
ness that comes over us in church or
public hall IS not always due to the
prosiness of the speaker or our own
toilworn condition; we are not al
ways fair when we blame it on the
poor minister. Quite as likely it is
due to an unconscious straining of
the eyes caused by an exposed light
in our field of vision.
