. Mechanical and electrical engineering record. The attention that will be paid to automobile engineer-ing in the future is an important element of development. For work in testing materials of construction there is a100,000 pound Riehle resting machine, and a Fairbanks-Morse cement-testing equipment. A 200,000 pounds 01-sen machine is being installed. For the experimental engineering work in electricalengineering there are a 10 kw., Fdison dynamo, a 9 c. motor, a 2-horse-power General Electric inductionmotor, a kw. polyphase dynamo, a Wagner inductionmotor, d. c. generator set

There is quite an extensive equipment for pursuing thestudy of telephony, consisting of a small switchboardcontaining jacks and drops for both common battery andmagneto circuits, built by the American Telephone Com-pany. Then there are a number of subscribers instruments. STATE UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY. .ibrary State University of Kentucky COLLEGE OF MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING some of the American Telephone Companys make, someof the Kellogg Companys, and some of the Western ElectricCompanys. This equipment is sufficient to enable thestudents to obtain a comprehensive grasp of some of theadvanced problems of telephony. The aim of the College of Mechanical and ElectricalEngineering, as a part of the State University, will beprimarily to train young men to be competent to take upthe work usually assigned to graduates of engineeringschools, either in mechanical or electrical engineering. Inaddition to this, as opportunity offers, it is expected thatstudents will engage in advanced scientific research pertain-ing to all the branches of mechanical, electrical and chemicalengineering. COURSE OF STUDY The practical work extends over a period of two years,and includes the experience in the wood shop, machine shopfoundry, and forge shop
