1UI TM1 HALCYO ©FllSTO DRAWING IT OUT relations in industry — for the world is turning to the engineer for the solution of problems of this vital char- acter. This condition of affairs was gradually b e i ti g brought about in the Unit- ed States before the war, and the effect of the war has been to greatly accel- erate the movement. The most casual obser- vation will serve to show that the Engineering profession, the world over, enjoys a standing of impor- tance to-day never before granted it by the world ' s greatest thinkers. In order to make this position secure, the engineers of the future must be educated along very liberal lines, for only by that means is it possible to de- velop men with the capacity for success in such a broad field. The Engineering Courses at Swarthmore College are planned with this end in view. The fact that its graduates are at this time serving the Nation in a great variety of positions, ranging from those requiring the highest tech- nical skill to those requiring little technical skill, but business and executive ability of a high order, seems to indicate the success of this plan. Besides serv- ing the Nation in its industrial life, graduates hold commissions in almost all branches of our military service. It is also noteworthy that conscripted men have had a wide choice of service, due no doubt to the fact that their education made it possible for them to become easily adjusted to technical, scientific, or executive work.

TM1 Halcy (To-operation They emphasize co-operation, It ' s drummed into your ears, They feed you double ration Till it drives you into tears. They tell you of it ' s value And it ' s you they want to please. The departments only run for you So you ' re the whole damned cheese. And then in very simple trust. In what they ' ve had to say, You wander into shop or just Look into forge some day. It may be that you have a knife That needs a sharper edge Or you are wondering if your wife, Can really swing a sledge. But stick your head inside the door Or touch a single tool ; Co-operation is no more Jack Matthews has your wool. FATIGUE ELIMINATION EXHIBIT Twenty-eight
