PAGE SBTX Service the Keynote | of Local Engineers sociation, was given Lh CONDduciuiiiy i , the meeting and opened it by reviewâ€" ing the history, the purposes, the aims and ideals of the organization. It was formed some 15 years ago, he said, and included five branchesâ€"the mining. | electrical, chemical, mechanical â€" and | civil engineers. There were many misâ€" | conceptions, Prof, Angus said, as to the purpose and motives of this assoâ€" 1 ciation of engineers. There was no plan to form a union or to establish any monopoly. The association was not closed against men who had onlyl practical experience or training. It was fully recognized that some men who had never seen college were' better engineers than those from colâ€" leges. At the same time it could notl be denied that an engineer increased his chances for service by college eduâ€" cation and improved his opportunity for in his chosen calling. The real purpose of the association was ‘ to raise the profession to a better basis and to give the public better service and more complete protection. No profession had higher ideals than the engineers and if all got together to work for the common good the result would be the general advantage and welfare. The council of the associaâ€" tion had adopted the plan of holding . meetings at various centres, instead of ! at Toronto. Mcetings of this kind had ‘ beern held at London, at Kirkland Lake, and now in the Porcupine field.. It is hoped in this way to give a more accurate picture to the public of the purposes in view, and at the same time draw together the engineers who are concerned with the standing of their profession and better service of the public. To Protect Profession and the Public. S. R. Frost said that he was amaZâ€" ed at the stability and permanence of things as he saw them in the Porcuâ€" pine and Kirkland Lake camps. The two camps proved the capabilities and the vision of the engineering profesâ€" sion. In reviewing the history of the Registered Professional Engineers‘ Asâ€" sociation, he pointed out that the idea of restricting the right to use of the title "engineer" was all with the purâ€" pose of protecting the public. The association was founded on the aim of protecting the profession and the pubâ€" (Continued From Page One) Aims and Ideals of the Engine Prof, Angus, president of the gistered Professional Engineers‘ The QOutstanding Investment of the Porcupine Camp.

He touchrd on the attempts â€"to secure the needed legislation to make effective the protection of the public, and pointed out that misconceptions on the part of the mn in the mining country had been responsible for the withdrawal of the legislation. He outâ€" lined the qualifications for inemberâ€" ship in the association, noting that they they were the minimum comâ€" patible with puslic safety. It was felt that both training and experience were desirable in the engineer for the best service and security. Responsibility on Engineers to Educate Public Opinion "Gold reigns supreme toâ€"day," said Alex E. MacRa*®, "and the authorities at Ottawa have the greatest respect for the gold producers." One of the basic principles of engineering in any of its branches was to stek for facts, choose the most important facts, and base conclusions and action on these facts. He was afraid that full emâ€" phasis had not been placed on the most important facts in regard to the mnC 2N enginetrs 2 of the publ this should phnasis.

John Knox, general manager of the Hollinger, being called away during the progress of the meeting, M. E. Wilâ€" liams was asked to speak and did so briefly. He referred to the cost of the various forms of inspection to assurse public safety and suggested that if the association would result in greater economy in this line it would perform a useful service.

Mill Office: Timmins, Phone 709 ‘The importance of the engineer toâ€" day was stressed by Geo. B. Langford, of the McIintyre. HMe siid there were real problems to Je solved in the minâ€" ing field and it would test the ability of the best brains and skill in the profession to deal effectively with these problems. were in such an effective position to answer the question as other enâ€" gineersâ€"the Registered Professional Engineers‘ Association. Other Speakers Other speakers included:â€"R. Robinâ€" son, of the McIntyre; J. W. Dougherâ€" ty, mine of the Hollinâ€" ger; Chas. Kemsley, of the Dome; Mr. Robinson, of the Paymaster; J. J. Denâ€" ny. of the McIntyre; E. Sterne; J. Clark Ksith; and G. A. Macdonald, editor of The Advance. Mr. Robinson, field man for the McIntyre, explained that much of the opposition to the association had arisen from the fear that even the small mines would be forced to employ registered engineeéers even for preliminary work. He sugâ€" gested that the byâ€"laws of the assoâ€" ciation be made generally available so that all might know exactly what the association meant and represented. Mr. Denny thought there was much in favour of the Registered Professional Engineers‘ Association, and that with effective publicity they would put over their good plans. E. Sterne emphasized in eloquent way that the objects of the professionâ€" al engineers did not rest on the makâ€" ing of money alone, but were bound up in the higher ideals of selfâ€"expression and service of the public. He urged the very highest conception of the callâ€" ing of the engineer. *"Sorvice," he said, "should be the great moving force. Give mors, and as surely as day folâ€" lows night, you will get more, and life will be richer, fuller, better." Appreciated Hospitality In a humorous and witty address, J. Clark Keith, on behalf of the members of the council of the association, exâ€" pressed appreciation for the warmth of the welcome given by the North. He forecast that A. D. Campbell, held in such high regard by all in the profes sion, would be the next president of the association. From the Public Viewpoint G. A. Macdonald reviewed the disâ€" cussion at the Northern Ontario Asâ€" sociated Boards of Trade of the Regisâ€" tered Professional Engineers‘ Associaâ€" tion, and said that it appeared as if _â€"_â€"-â€"_â€"“â€"_â€"â€".â€"-â€"_â€"â€"â€"â€"‘_â€"â€"' the propaganda in opposition nad come from promoters whose interests were not identical with those of either the engineers or the public. He pointed out that the mining engineers of Kirkâ€" land and Porcupine camps by ability and integrity had won the confidence and esteem Oof the public. They had made their calling a high one and reâ€" ports they signed were accepted as of special value. The whole North deâ€" pended upon the mining industry. Everything that helped the industry helped all in the North and no injury could be done the industry without harm to all. False reports or misâ€" representation would give the whole country a black eye. The association was open to both college men and those of only practical experience. It seemed essential that the engingeers should have a professional status and qualifications. It appseared just as vitâ€" al for the public interests as it did in the case of doctors or lawyers. There was little sense in the talk about monopoly or close corporations. The chief consideration should be the pubâ€" lic benefit and this would be best servâ€" ed by giving the proper standing and authority to qualified engineers, on TEHEE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, whose skill and integrity would depend not only the welfare of investors, but the safety and lives of the workers in the mines. ton Ashley Barry Hollinger Base.
