MECHANICAL ENGINEERING SOCIETY. j
On the 23rd of October the Mechanical Engineering Society met ·
in its regular monthly session in the society rooms in the Mechanical
Hall. The attendance was very large over forty being present.
The society was addressed by Prof. A. M. Miller, who talked on
· ‘·The Discovery, Method of Making, and Uses of Carborundum," and r
also gave an interesting lecture on "Kentucky Asphaltum." The E
lecture was very interesting and all the members hope to have Prof. »
l Miller with them again in the near future.
After the lecture the society asked Prof. Anderson to arrange next  
month’s program, and it is very likely we will have with us an emi-  
nent Meclianiical Engineer. V
The society meets on the third Friday of each month in Prof. WVells’ I
class room, on the second floor of the Experimental Laboratory. All p I
the students are invited to be present and spend an afternoon with us.
At the next meeting let every one come out and enjoy our meetings. A
