10 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1922 NATIONAL CONFERENCE OF ENGINEERS CALLED U. S. Commissioner of Educa- tion Prompts Movement The United States Commissioner of Education is calling a second public conference on commercial engineer- ing on behalf of a committee on com- mercial engineering appointed by him to investigate business training of en- gineers and engineering training for students of business. The conference will be held May 1 and 2 at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh. President Arthur Hamerschlag of this institu- tion is a member of the committee which is composed of prominent deans of schools of engineering, and of com- merce in our larger universities, and of engineers and hbusiness men who are nationally known for their inter- est in the reduction of the costs of production, distribution, transporta- tion, ete., through better training in schools and colleges of the personnel of industry and commerce. The conference will be open to the public. Invitations to appoint aele- gates to the Pittsburgh conference, however, will be sent by the Commis- sioner of Education to commercial and trade organizations, engineering and scientific societies, educational institutions and other groups as well as to prominent individuals. Owing to the timeliness of the sub- - ject, the conference in Pittsburgh will even have greater national signifi- cance than the first public conference on this question, which was held in Washington two and one-half years ago under the direction of this com- mittee on commercial engineering of which Dr. Glen Levin Swiggett of the Bureau of Education is chairman. "The four major topics of the con- ference," says Dr. Swiggett, 'will be presented and discussed at general and round table sessions by business men, educators and engineers, con- tributing to the construction of a co- operative program between education and business for the better co-ordina- tion of all productive and distributive processes in trade and commerce. It is planned to have the second confer- ence even more constructive that the first, since which time the curricula of 29 of the 119 engineering colleges reporting. to the Bureau of Ec Aucetion TL a -- have been favorably modified to in- clude one or more of the four com- mittee recommendations. Outstand- ing topics at the Pittsburgh Confer- ence will deal with the new problems that have recently arisen in modern industries, the solution of which de- pends a more scientific approach to include job analyses and personnel specifications and a translation of these into a new and teachable con- tent for use in our engineering and commerce schools; with the training of the engineer for a better under- standing of problems relating to a community development; and with the training of the engineer for man- agement of overseas engineering pro- jects." MESSENGER BOY RUFUS FINDS MATE Hiker Who Carried Letter to Harding Finds Romance Clarksburg, W. Va.--The overland courier who, through rain and hail and sleet, over high mountains and through deep passes, bore sealed mes- sages to President Harding a distance of more than a thousand miles on foot from Danville, Ill, not only succeeded in his mission but has met romance on the homeward journey. After hairbreadth escapes from death, in which he swung from high railway trestles and faced starvation in the mountains of Kentucky, H. H. Rufus, 44 years old, plodded into this harm- less looking little town and found the greatest adventure of all. The couple will be marrie din the spring. In accomplishing his remarkable hike, Rufus, (now called "Harding's messengerboy'") performed an un- precedented feat. He started last No- vember from Danville with one cent and the instructions not to beg, bor- row, or steal on the trip. In his 15- pound pack were four sealed letters from the Danville Chamber of Com- merce which, six weeks later, he de- livered in person to the President in the White House. "It was a wonder- ful trip, made by a determined man," Harding said. He also delivered a cigar to Joe Cannon. Rufus has been dropping into Amer- ican Legion posts along the way for a shave and a rest while darning socks, and his stories have become well known. When asked how he turned the trick, he smiled and says: "TI was all eyes and ears, looked straight ahead, and got what I went after."
