Speaker Stresses Value of Complete Technical Training
importance of Efficiency in School Emphasized in Herrington Lecture
"The engineer, the executive, the salesman must lay a sound foundation for his work," he said in his work," and John Lo Rington, a consulting engineer of Kansas City, Mo., in the fifth 8 o'clock vocational talk given in central Adelaide.
Mr. Herrington constantly stressed the need of technical efficiency in school. He commented that after graduation come field work, which he said would sign learners in school. But the mastery of designing is necessary. "Many executives and railroad presidents have originally been engineers, but now they are of the Pennsylvania system have been engineers for three generations," he said.
Engineering Field Open
"There are many fields open to the engineer today. He is called to evaluate employees employed by investment houses investigating; he is employed by banking houses to advise concerning building projects and he has his financial knowledge after he leaves school. The average engineer is in practical and does not have a business background, after leaving school." Herrington said.
Mr. Herrington is compiling a course in reading for graduate engineers. "There is need also for supervisors of the graduating engineering many of the graduating engines needs go. And there many of the engineers should be in the sit signing room."
Course May Be Revised
Mr. Herrington did not believe that the engineering course would be lengthened. He thought that it would remain approximately the four years required for the course, it might be revived to include courses in economics, sociology, and the humanities. "The average engineer is not broad enough minded and he fails in application. This fault our courses create is too great," said a cent of the members of the Society of Mechanical Engineers have been trained in the field. Men may be trained in the field as well as in engineering, but it is more practical" said Herrington.
"The average engineer," said Herrington, "stops studying after he leaves school. He does not read. And he doesn't know how to menuback building menuback class jobs."

Wright Worries Club:
Arrives Right on Time
Where is Ray? The Gee Club program was progressing admirably Monday evening and an appreciative audience welcomed every number. However, the director, Professor Larkernore, was becoming a little nerdy in 2015, so it took time for the number, "Summer Evening" was slowly drawing near and Ray Wright, the "Summer Evening" soloist had not yet shown up.
Where is Ray? Professor Larroser was no longer mattering the way he played, but making them very audible; and he nervously paced the back stage play at his watch on an average of three times every second and at the time when he stopped playing. The time for singing "Summer Evening" had come but the Glee Club filed on the stage with thetimes of "Croppeppe?" tickling each singer's ear. She did the same motion back stage. The clatter of running feet was heard on the starway. A moment later Wright appeared, slightly flushed, but nevertheless
Professor Larrume put his watch back in his pocket, and wiped the perspiration from his forehead. Ray Larrume inspected a suspecting audience heard exactly what they had expected to hear. Ray Larrume rolled and also the "Summer Evening."
How did it happen? Ray just forget. He forgot that Monday night was the date of the Glee Club program and very innocently contracted with a local theater manager to sing at a downtown theater. Being a man who is known for his success, did more than we can expect of any man, two things at once.
