MECHANICAL CLASS HE modern mechanic must have a highly specialized knowledge. It must comprise not only practical and manual ability, but technical and theoretical accuracy. Besides the basic fundamentals which underlie the study of mechanics, there are many allied subjects, a knowledge of which enables the trained man to take a commanding rank in his chosen field. In these days of concrete and steel construction, strength of materials is of vital importance. Factors of safety must be figured by the mechanic with mathematical precision and an accurate knowledge of the effects of specific conditions. When a rigorous training in higher mathematics and a comprehensive grasp of all mechanical problems have been acquired, the graduate steps out to find his position in the world, with the sound understanding and eager enthusiasm that come with the power of knowledge. MECHANICAL DRAWING aECHANICAL Drawing is the method by which the engineer con veys his ideas to the builder of machinery. It is the design which the pattern-maker and the mechanic must use. As far as possible all plan ning and experimentation are done on the drawing before the model is made. И must be executed with accuracy since measurements as fine as hundredths of an inch must be shown on it. The draftsman, having drawn the preliminary plans from a model, has them approved. He then proceeds to work up a set of tracings from which a final set of blue prints is obtained. These prints are then given to the pattern-maker. who рго- | | | I ceeds to make the model from them. Then the pattern is inspected and the engineer makes the necessary improvements on the tracing. Often the machined piece con- veys new ideas to the engineer, who will have it redesigned. Frequently the new model is changed considerably from the original model. Sometimes the pattern is right according to the blue print, butthe engineer who checks it finds an error due to some fault in tracing. To recheck a drawing in many instances means a saving of large sums of money to the producer. From this we see that the student must be, above all, accurate if he wishes to be a success in this field. Charles T. Brennan.
