Excerpt from Present Problems in the Training of Mining Engineers: A Paper Read Before the Congress of Arts and Sciences, St. Louis, and Also Before the American Institute of Mining Engineers, September, 1904

The man is always greater than his work. The training of the men who are to develop the mineral resources of the world is the most important problem connected with mining engineering. It becomes ever more important to civilization as the mineral wealth of the earth approaches exhaustion. I have therefore decided to consider a few of the more important problems arising in the training of the mining engineer, and especially those arising in America.
