Tuesday, November 20, 1923 THE TAR HEEL ELISHA MITCHELL SOCIETY MEETS Page Three Dr. Dike and Dr. Vilbrandt Read Papers at the 267th Meeting of Scientific Society At the 267th. meeting of the Elisha Mitchell Scientific Society held No vember the thirteenth Dr. , Paul N. Dike gave a very interesting paper illustx-ated with lantern slides on "Magnetic Surveys by the Carnegie Institution." A brief historical sketch of the earlier magnetic surveys was followed by a description of the mag netic work undertaken by the Car negie Institution. Large portions of the earth's surface had never been surveyed, and it was necessary before theories as to the causes of the mag netic field or the earth could be put to the test, to undertake extensive surveys both on land and sea. The methods of carrying out a land survey were outlined and repre sentative views shown, to give an idea of some of the difficulties encounter ed by the observers. The work of the Galilee and of the Carnegie, the two magnetic survey yachts that have been used by the Department was de scribed. A chart was shown repre senting the cruises of the yachts and the land expeditions undertaken, showing the extent of the work done up to the present. Dr. Frank C. Vilbrandt gave the second paper, "By-producting North Carolina Coals." A review of the his tory and location of the Deep River Coal Fields of Chatham and Moore counties was given. Production, la bor and transportation difficulties were also discussed. A brief study of the eff fects of temperature on the coal from the Farmville Mine of the Carolina Coal Company was also presented. CONVENTION OF WATER EXPERTS 150 of the Water Works Men From All Over the State Meet at New Bern About one hundred and fifty of the water works men from all over the State were in New Bern last week I to be present at the meeting of the . North Carolina section of the Amer i ican Water Works Association, i Various papers and reports were heard by the assembly on the bac- terialogical and chemical control ' ot filtration plants. Among theso dis cussions was one by Thorndike Sa ville, Associate Professor of Hydrau lic and Sanitary Records for Water Work. L. I. Lassiter, who is a senior in the Civil Engineering Department of the School of Engineering, wa. asked by the State Board of Health to give a talk on the work which hs and Mr. A. S. Chase had done in filter plants while engaged in their co-operation work during their ju nior year. Mr. Lassiter and Mr. Chase were engaged by the State 'Board of Health for their co-operation period last year away from the Hill. While on this work each of the men were placed in some of the best fil tration plants in the State to obtain experience and they became so valu able that when near the end of the year some trouble developed at the Smithfield plant, Mr. Lassiter was sent by the State Board of Health to find out the difficulty and remedy it. It was chiefly this experience that he discussed at New Bern, and those attending the meeting were not only impressed by such work from a student, but they also became great ly interested in the entire co-operation system and they desire to get men from the School of Engineering at the University. Messrs Osband, Farrell, and Logie are engaged on work similar to that of Messrs Chase and Lassiter with the State Board of Health and with the Charlotte fil tration plant. Prof. Janda attended the meeting at New iBern together with Prof. Thorndike Saville, Prof. Saville being re-elected secretary and treasurer of the North Carolina section.
