Professionally, the mining engineer in relation to the public and the mining industry gen- erally is in exactly the same position as the investment broker called upon by a client for advice as to investment participation. They both investigate, analyze their findings, and upon these results base their recommendations. There is nothing of the blind Opti- mist nor of the pessimist about the mining engineer. He strives solely to give the facts. When called upon for an examination and report upon a proâ€" perty, whether in the elementary pros- pect stage or later development stage, his whole purpose is to give the facts as they exist and the conclusions to be drawn therefrom. Conservatism, coupl- ed with constructive comment, is the keynote of his endeavours when acting in a consulting capacity. A knowledge of accounting as ap- plied to mine operations and plant management, and a thorough grasp of financial statement analysis, are other necessary requisites to the efficient en- gineer’s equipment 'not generally ac- credited tohim. Calling for an high order of intelli- gence, qualities of integrity and ener- gy, and a keen perception of values. the work of the mining engineer is one of the most important contributing fac- tors towards the upbuilding of indus- try, commerce, and national wealth. Perhaps no profession is more exact- ing in its demands upon the versatility of the individual than that of mining engineering. First and foremost, the mining engineer must be familiar with the best mining practices. He must keep himself fully informed as to min- ing developments throughout the world. His education must be practical as well as theoretical. He is the primary mining counsel of capital, large and small. and his profession requires con-' stant study and research to keep a- breast with the times and serve civili- zation economically and efficiently. The mining engineer must not only be familiar with the science of geology in general but must have expert know- ledge of the peculiar formations and characteristics of the rocks in the country in which he practices his pro- fession. Capable of directing the under- ground work of a mine; again calling for highly specialized knowledge, he must also be something of a mechani- cal engineer when dealing with plant operations as mine development pro- ceeds. Chemistry, an indispensable unit in the equipment of the mining engineer, is utilized by him in many ways. BANQUET AND PRESENTATION T0 J. GRANT, KIRKLAND LAKE The Kirkland Lake Northern News last week said:â€" “Members of the Hospital Board, the Public School Board and High School Board banqueted James Grant, who is a member of the three boards, and who is soon to leave town, at the Gold Range Hotel on Friday evening. Dur- ing the evening L. A. Lillico. toastmas- ter, called on Reeve Evoy to make a presentation to Mr. Grant in the form of a diamond tie pin. Speaking of the interest Mr. Grant had taken in the schools and hospital, Reeve Evoy said it would be a hard job to get a man to replace .Mr. Grant, and that the citi- zens in losing the services of Mr. Grant were losing a man whose hobby was serving his fellow citizens on the school boards and hospital board. In accept- ing the token of regard tendered him, Mr. Grant feelingly replied. It was, he said. a source of pleasure and comfort to know that, after serving on the dif- ferent boards. his colleagues in this public service thought enough of him to remember him in this manner. There had been times when he had had to do some things that were unpleasant but through it all he had followed the course that he thought was for the best. “My interests.” said Mr. Grant, “In the North Country will not stop because I am moving away." Thank- ing them again for the present given him, he wished them all success in the future. Every person present was call- ed upon to say a few words and each in turn had a good word to say for “Jim." The evening was enlivened by music and songs with George White at “Jim." Tl music and the piano. London (Eng) Sunday Express:â€" When a man becomes 100 years of age he is usually interviewed by reporters. and this ingenious race invariably comes back with a story that the cen- tenarian owes his gret age either to drink or tetotalism, to early rising or much sleep. to smoking or non-smok- ing. The truth is that healthy old men never think about their health. 11 you wish to keep out of the grave put your health out of your mind. Since the dawn of civilization. metal- lic wealth has formed the foundation of the advancement financially, indus- trially, and politically. of all great na- tions; and. as science has progressed. the mining engineer has become more and more an important factor in this development. Working quietly and ef- fectively. often in obscure corners of the earth, the members of his profes- sion have contributed much towards the enrichment of the world. ININIIIE III INE VAIIJE III THE NIININII ENGINEER Members of the Profession Have Con- tributed Much to the Enrichment of the World. Some of the Qualifications A generous, but merited. tribute is paid by Ross H. Mowat writing last week in “News From the Mines.” Mr. Mowat says:â€" (From The Renfrew Mercury) Debentures in connection with wa- terworks issued by the town of Brock- ville 39 years ago have just been final- ly retired Debentures to the value of $100,000 were issued and redeemed. but in paying them the town paid a great deal more in interest, this having run up to $153,000. So it is stated in a !press despatch from Brockville. which with that experience before it will in the coming years probably hesitate about “debenturing” small amounts .and piling on interest charges “Pay ! as you go” is as good a motto for muni- 'cipalities as it is for individuals. when [such promptness is at all practicable.

(From The Renfrew Mercury) People residing in those muincipali- ties of the Ottawayalley where com- plaint is heard of a tendency of taxes to soar would perhaps hear louder complaints if they lived in the New Ontario town of Cobalt.

Corresponding rates last year were 79 mills and 117 mills. respectively. The one has become a little better. the other a little worse. Press despatches sent out from Cobalt telling of this ex- traordinary levy state what the rate is without assigning a reason therefor.
