TIME recognition OF engineering as
a profession has suffered m the
past from a lack Of definition.
The growth Of the profession
has been so rapid that sufficient time
has not elapsed to afford an under
standing Of the term engineer" The
wide scope Of subjects covered 10y en-
cheering has also contributed 10 this
difficulty. As result the engineer is
an unknown quantity in the puDlic
estimation, and the term covers the
work Of mel who are engaged in almost
any branch Of mechanical pursuits as
Vel as IN the more learned branches
o. engInecrng This is not AN entirely
unexpected development. The legal
profess on passed through much the
same course in its eight centuries OF
development but has now reached a
POM at which a lawyer is an under
sariahle term.
Meanwhile. the work of engineers
