TWO:All right, then. You can tell your other comradeLarry, you said you call him, Dick. Ill leave a note for Jeff. Now Ill go on up to the house and write it and make a couple of telephone callsand then Ill drop out of thingsbut youll hear from me off and on till we get those emeralds safe in our hands. Theneven while were waitingif you can get your parents consent to stay, which I think can be arranged by JeffLarry can take some flying navigationyou, Dick, can study engines and construction, or navigationwhatever you like.I am not aware that any one has defined what constitutes civil engineering, or mechanical engineering, as distinguished one from the other, nor is it assumed to fix any standard here [14] farther than to serve the purpose of explaining the sense in which the terms will be used; yet there seems to be a clear line of distinction, which, if it does not agree with popular use of the terms, at least seems to be furnished by the nature of the business itself. It will therefore be assumed that mechanical engineering relates to dynamic forces and works that involve machine motion, and comprehends the conditions of machine action, such as torsional, centrifugal, intermittent, and irregular strains in machinery, arising out of motion; the endurance of wearing surfaces, the constructive processes of machine-making and machine effect in the conversion of materialin short, agents for converting, transmitting, and applying power.
