Any man who will study can learn thetheory of Steam Engineering thoroughly,without leaving home or losing time fromwork. Thousands of students, including en-gineers, firemen, machinists, master me-chanics and superintendents, testify to thebenefits received through their coursesin The International CorrespondenceSchools, Scranton, Pa. The LocomotiveEngineers Scholarship. This course is intended especially forlocomotive engineers, firemen, appren-tices and others who wish to study me-chanical drawing and the theory of Loco-motive Steam Engineering. The subjectstaught are arithmetic, mensuration andthe use of letters in the algebraic formu-las, Geometrical Drawing, MechanicalDrawing, Locomotives, Dynamos andMotors.
