Training Captains of Industry.

The training necessary for the men on whom rests the responsibility to organize and direct the technical side of great industrial affairs must include special scientific culture together with actual experience and practice, according to Sir Robert Hadfield, an eminent English engineer in metallurgical and chemical engineering.

It usually happens that the scientific man is as necessary as the practical man, but neither the one nor the other is a satisfactory organizer, because they do not unite in one head the combination of two indispensible elements. It is therefore necessary to arrange our educational courses so as to combine the two--in other words, to find a third type of man in whom such knowledge will be united. The solution of the problem is not easy, but it is more than ever necessary that at the present time such a new type should be evolved and developed. Boston Journal
