Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the American Society of Heating, and Ventilating Engineers, Vol. 16: Sixteenth Annual Meeting, New York, January 18-20, 1910; Summer Meeting St. Louis, Mo;, June 30-July 1 This, the sixteenth annual meeting of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers, will differ materially from others in that most of our time will be devoted to the hearing and discussion of committee reports. Our former president, in his address a year ago. outlined a plan for making this a review meeting. Based on his recommendation and the vote of the Society, committees were appointed, covering a wide variety of subjects, to review our proceedings and prepare a digest of what has appeared in papers and discussions bearing on those subjects. The reports of these committees will show us not only what has been done by the Society, but will bring to our attention the branches that need developing, so that we shall be able to intelligently lay out a course of work for which a demand may have been shown to exist. Aside from the review committees we have a new one, called the publicity committee, with its central committee of three and its subsidiary members in many of the States. It has been felt that the work and aims of this Society have not received as prominent mention in other than the engineering and trade press as should be the case. It is hoped that this committee will devise ways, and that the Society will provide means whereby this apparent deficiency will be overcome. It is important not only to us as members of this Society that its work should have the broadest possible publicity, but it is equally, if not more, important to the public that the facts brought out at our meetings in reference to methods of heating and ventilation should have the desired dissemination.
