true engineer who saw a need for something new
and set himself to supply this necessity. We speak
of Mr. H. John Eastman who originated directional
j drilling and who in two years has become a wprld
j renowned expert at it. Mr. Eastman is a present
day illustration of the historical observation that
"men destined to highest eminence in science usual-
ly produce some work worthy of their best powers
at a decidely early period in their career."
Abel, the Norwegian mathematician for whom
the Abelian function is named, is said to have taken
his life at Iwenty-six. Moseley, the British physic-
ist who explained how the properties of the differ-
ent forms of matter are determined, was shot down
in the trenches at twenty-seven. At fifteen Pascal
composed his treatise on Conic Sections; when he
was twenty Maelaurin created a new branch of

And it k surprising to find how many
• in -i fo t.liese qiK'stions are indefinite. Perhaps
1'ht rea.-on is trut the students are really not much
inti-reslei 1 in on^ineerin.n---a sad discovery to make
t few months alter graduation! To avoid thi.s con-
•iitjon, think about your interests and collect all the
data you can mi different kinds of work thru con-
versations with proie.ssors and engineers, thru in-
spection trips, and thru technical reading. Above
all think about your likes occasionally.
Still another set of questions deal with lite broad
gene i Ell training u'hich any) university man is sup-
posed to get, but which the engineer sometimes for-
gets or neglects to acquire, "Have you engaged in
athletics? What clubs have you worked in? What!
offices have you held? What are your amusements <
and your hobbies?" Negative answers to these in- j
quiries imply that the student has been disinterest-
ed, unambitious, bashful, lazy, egotistical, or a suf- j
ferer from a similar kind bf social defect. Not only !
has he lost many a happy hour he would have re-
membered for years, but he is short of a great deal
of experience, especially experience in organization,
