A comprehensive Judgment of various views and solutions is only possible through the assimilation of ideas and associations such as an engineering sooiety offers. In the Technical Societies the various steps of mechanical development are depicted both from the practical and theoretical standpoint. They afford the engineer an opportunity to supplement his own knowledge by the experience of his fellow engineers. They afford him the opportunity to present to the world what he himself has accomplished and to receive criticisms and suggestions from his fellow men. Growing out of the discussion of the various subjects which are presented the engineer learns to appreciate the benefits of co-operation, which often means a benefit to all concerned.
