Excerpt from Engineering Education
Since the publication of this paper I have heard much comment upon it, and some parts of it have been most wilfully misunderstood. To me the scientific engineer should be a missionary of the highest order. Not, indeed, the kind of missionary which has justly come into disrepute through its presumption and arrogance; but the kind which teaches and labors faithfully towards the accomplishment of high aims. Think of the great field of sanitary engineering, of the improvement in our cities of the water supply which, to - day, is a veritable Minotaur to which tens of thousands are annually being sacrificed through typhoid and other enteric diseases, owing to the darkness and ignorance befogging the minds of the people and the city councils; think of the vast improvements in transportation, in lighting, and heating which can be, and are being, effected by scientific engineering. At the foun dation of such great work lies the singleness of purpose of men devoted to their work.
