A fair-sized audience attended the lecture of Prof. Charles E. Greene.upon Engineors and Engineering Schools, before the Unity Club, Monday evening. Those who stayed away, supposing the subject would be dry and uninteresting, missed a very profitable and interesting lecture. The Professor reviswed the progi'ess of engineering from the earliest times to our day, and showed very clearly that the engineer has contributed quite as much to the progress of the age as the doctor, the lawyer and the clergyman. Engineering has becomo one of the learned professions and is a progressive science, while theother learnod professions aro conservative and comparatively stationary. In the future the engineer is likely to become more necessary and important than ever. He is to be the great leader in the world's progress. the pioneer in civilization's onward march. The lecture interestad the audience from beginning to end, and its close was greeted vvith hearty applause.
