Sclpio addressed tho engineering society on "Tho Aesthetic in Engineering Details." In his Intro duction ho said it was a very much no-1 glected subject and that there aro very few text books which treat It. j Tho subject deals with tho art in de-' signing and as styles chango wo can I determine tho stage of civilization ! by the beauty and types of tho details ) of its constructions. It. takes time i and study to appreciate tho beauty of a construction. Considerable criti cism is made of engineers upon the appearance of their work'. An. engi neer does not think so much in the designing of tho appearanco as he does of tho strength. Tho principles underlying tho work of tho artist and tho ongineer aro reversed. Tho ar tist produces his work regardlejs of scientific principles whilo the engineer does tho opposite. Ho works from sci entific principles and 'meets tho tech nical details first and then figures on tho artistic side if at all. Professor Sclplo also explained a number of rules and cited examples of construction done with regard to- them. They aro tho syraotry, style, fitness, compared with its surroundings, form, fitness and proportion, ornamentation and the color, and harmony of tho con struction. The beauty of tho construc tion has a large Influence upon tho public. In the caso of a machine de signed artistically a quicker sale will bo had than If an ugly machine Is pro duced. Tho same Is true In buildings and everything olse. It also raises the standard of tho workmen. A man working amid dirty and Inartistic sur roundings Ib generally of a low stan dard and Is dlsatisfied, while a man working among artistic and beautiful surroundings Is generally content and tho standard of his work Is higher. A number of largo manufacturing plants havo tnken advantago of this among which aro tho National Cash Register Company and tho Pullman Car Works Company. In all It Is easily seen that a Uttlo money spent In artistic design will Improve tho conditions of tho owner as well as builder. Musical comedy will tako tho place of an attempt at serious drama in tho senior class play this spring at Min nesota.
