Morton memorial; a history of the Stevens institute of technology, with biographies of the trustees, faculty, and alumni, and a record of the achievements of the Stevens family of engineers. nkel, of Jer-sey City, N. J. They have two children, David Dinkel and Laura Jacobus. Prof. Jacobus acted as an assistant to Prof. Denton in the Department ofExperimental Mechanics and Shop Work for fifteen years, starting this work evenbefore the time of his graduation. Believing that members of the Faculty shouldkeep in close touch with the engineering world. President Morton arranged mat-ters so that much time could be spent by Professors Denton and Jacobus in thepractical field and on original experiments, and by his kindly advice and encour-agement aided them greatly in their researches. His youthful ambition changednight into day, and he then obtained a broad experience in practical experimentalengineering work, in which field he is now an acknowledged authority. The workof Prof. Jacobus has been so closely associated with that of Prof. Denton that tospeak of one is to speak of the other; and Prof. Jacobus attributes his successto the inspiration and assistance received from 258 THE STEVENS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY In connection with his work in experimental engineering he has developedoriginal apparatus for the illustration of physical laws and for testing variousmechanical devices. These investigations have formed the basis of a large num-ber of papers presented before engineering and scientific societies. He is a member of the following associations: the American Society ofMechanical Engineers; the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers;the American Institute of Mining Engineers; the American Society of Refriger-ating Engineers; the American Mathematical Society; the Society for the Promo-tion of Engineering Education; the American Association for the Advancement ofScience; the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia; and an associate member of theAmerican In
