Abstract :
It is a great pleasure to-night to welcome you all at the first meeting for the year of the Philadelphia Section of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. In beginning our year´s work, it will be profitable to spend a few moments in considering what the general aim of this Section should be, and in looking back over what has been accomplished in the five years since its organization, as well as in outlining briefly the policy of the present Board, to whom you have intrusted its affairs for the coming year.
