Ray, M.A., of the Department of Shopwork in the Central Technical School in connection with the chapter on " Mathematics of the Machine Shop," and to A. J. Stringer, M.S.A., of the Department of Architecture and Design in connection with the chapter on '• Application of the Measures to the Trades."
