HAD A FAMILY REUNION.
Rev. and Mrs. J. M. Sheets Had All
Their Children Present.

Wednesday, June 81, at the home
of Rev. and Mrs. j. M. Sheets q
happy meeting took place when the
entire family met for a reunion. 1t
was the first time in thirteen years
that they were an privileged Ito
meet one another. The names Of
the members of the family are: Ezra
Sheets and wife, Katie Bollinger,
Harry Sollenberger and wife, Enos
Sheets and wife, Jesse Sheets and
wife, Melvin Crawford and wife, and
seventeen grand children. Four
grandchildren were not there. Be-
sides this number there were un-
cles, aunts, cousins and a few of
the neighbors present.
The crowd met early in the after
noon and had social time for a
short period, after which program,
led in prayer by Rev. Russell of the
West Indies, was given by the grand
children. y
The devotionals which followed
the program were very touching as
each of the family, expressed APP
probation of the privilege of being
present and also gratefulness to
their parents, No doubt all felt
they will never meet again as they
did then. Ezra and wife will soon
leave for their home in Phlladel-
phia, Pa, and Katie Bollinger and
her two daughters for their home
In Illinois.
AS closing scene OF the day we
saw Mr.. and Mrs. Sheets seated at
beautifully spread table with their
'amily and in the same room an
'ther table where the grandchildren
we're enjoying their supper.
Parting was a sad feature but
veryone reported a good time and
vent home feeling it was a day
yell spent. -

800 persons visited the place and

has been reared in the century and a
half which has followed
In former times there were only
two kinds of engineering-civiI and
military. But the rise OF new indus
tries has subdivided the work of the
engineer and called for specialization
that there are now mechanical engin-
GERS, metallurgical and mining engin-
GERS. electrical engineers, sanitary en-
gineers. chemical engineers. and the
end is not yet. No modern engineer
can master all engineering kno8I-
edge, and the man who is designated a
civil engineer today perhaps deals with
only a tenth Of the matter which would
have been embraced in civil engineer
Ing 100 years ago
Former Engineering Feats.
Although the past 100 years has wit
messed more engineering progress than
all Of the centuries preceding, in many
things the engineer OF today marvels
at the work Of his prototype when the
world was young. He regards the py-
ramids of Egypt as the first great en-
cheering undertaking OF which mod
ern civilization knows. and he cannot
tell how some problems were solved
by the Egyptians. Perhaps the best
engineers Of former centuries were
those Of Rome 1t is said that in the
entire history of the world no public
highways have surpassed those built
under the supervision Of the highway
engineers of Rome in directness, solidi-
ty and adaptation to the purposes for
which they were designed Many OF
the best ideas Of modern highway con-
struction are simply adaptations of the
engineering art upon which the Appian
Way and other highways Of Rome were
constructed. Rome also had a very
excellent sewerage system
The amount of money invested IN
engineering projects in the United
States is beyond estimate. It is prob
able that one-half of all the wealth
Of the nation has been created indi-
rectly by the civil engineer. Without
him the United States would still be
where Central America is today, for
with no railroads it could have few
modern cities There could be few
factories, and the nations mineral
wealth could not be realized upon ex-
cept in a most meagre way. The urban
dweller can scarcely turn around with
out thanking the civil engineer for
something. The streets and the street
cars are made what they are by him
Cheap transportation comes through
him The big office building, the large
apartment house. the great hotel the
water supply-nearly every comfort,
convenience and necessary of his life
is affected in a considerable measure
by the work Of such men as those who
constitute the American Society of
Civil Engineering.
