Maine’s Geology
The Man Who Knows
The Engineering and Mining .Jour
nal for August* pays a deserved
compliment to one who has been do
ing excellent work in this State.
FREEMAN F. BURR
Freeman F. Burr, M. A., geologist
to the Maine State Water Power
Commission and to the Central
Maine Power Co„ Augusta, Me., is
spending much of his time this sum
mer investigating mineral deposits in
Maine with a view to their develop
ment by means of electric power.
At the same time he also lias to pass
judgment on the suitability of rock
structures at prospective power sites
and search for construction mate
rials. His geologic work for the past
six years, under the State Water
Storage. Public Utilities and Water
Power Commissions, has taken him
into nearly every part of Maine and
he is probably more familiar with
that state's geology and mineral re
sources than is any other person to
day. His special studies in the char
acter and distribution of peat and
feldspar have been of special value to
Maine, and were based on prepara
tory work in geology and botany at
Lawrence Scientific School, Cam
bridge, Mass., from which be gradu
ated in 1900, at Columbia University
from which he received the M. A. de
gree in 1913, and some of the Middle
Atlantic and Central States. In view j
of the above it was quite proper to
elect him a member of the associa- j
tion of State Geologists, although !
Maine herself has not yet seen* fit to i
follow the lead of many other states 1
and establish for her own benefit j
an adequate modern survey of her :
mineral and other natural resources, i
A Clear Distinction
A number of men were employed
on the job. One fellow In the furth- j
erlng of his work stepped on a re
cently completed window sill and
neglected to put anything there to !
protect the wood work from the nails
in his shoes. Another workman chid- |
ed the elevated employe and in
formed him that it was not permit
ted to step on a piece of unfinished i
work. The fellow standing on the
window sill remarked that he didn’t
know there were any rules or regu
lations concerning that. The pother
workman who had chided the first
employe placed some shavings under
the first employe's feet on the win
dow sill and as he did so, was heard
to remark: “There is a difference be
tween a laborer and a mechanic. A
laborer scuffs along about his work
and doesn’t notice where his feet are
going, stepping on anything that luy)
pens to be in his path. A mechanic
is careful about his work’and picks
his way about, stepping over and !
around anything that he might be
apt to step on or destroy." The
chance listener felt that here he had
learned a clear distinction told in a
straightforward manner.
