"Swedish Engineers Society" is the name given to a society organized last Saturday evening, the function of which will be to furnish an exchange of views between Swedish engineers of Chicago and other societies of engineers.

G. A. Akerlind, consulting engineer of the National Pump Car Company and the Roger Ballast Car Company was the first to issue the call for a meeting at Kunz Remmler's. The meeting was attended by twenty ex-members of the Swedish Engineers club who have abandoned this organization because its work is unsatisfactory.

After a discussion on important questions of organization, the following members were elected officers: Henry Nyberg, automobile manufacturer, chairman; Albin Rissler, engineer, vice-chairman; G. A. Akerlind, engineer, secretary; F. Seaberg, engineer, financial secretary and cashier. The members of the Executive Committee are Inspector C. A. Alzen; Henry Ericson, architect; A. G. Lund, Superintendent at the Illinois Steel Company; John Brunner; and Fred Norlin civil engineer. The meeting was followed by a dinner 2to which the press was invited and during which Mr. Nyberg acted as master of ceremonies. A toast was offered to the Swedish Engineers of America, especially those of Chicago.

Secretary Akerlind's address is 1702 Railway Exchange Bldg.
