m and simplified much of tire t&bniaal dkSkt<with the idea of assisting the engineer, architect and contractor in designing and producing the most effective installations for heating and ventilating various types of build ings. This issue of The Guide is designated 1928 to avoid confusion which has been noted with the double numbering system used previously. Because of the magnitude of producing such a reference volume as The Guide each year, the Council of the Society appointed a Guide Pub lication Committee consisting of Perry West, Chairman; W. H. Carrier and C. V. Haynes and retained Chairman Perry West as Editor-in-Chief. .The Guide Publication Committee then enlisted the service of SubCommittee Chairmen, W. H. Driscoll, S. R. Lewis and Esten Bolling to take charge of the Heating Section, Ventilation Section and Catalog Data Section respectively. Under their direction the cooperation of a great many Society members was enlisted and their helpful work is gratefully acknowledged as they have made it possible for this volume to appear in its enlarged and comprehensive form for service as the standard reference work in the heating and ventilating, field. In connection with the MANUFACTURERS' CATALOG DATA SECTION a more determined effort has been made to carry out the original idea of having this data as free as possible from all unnecessary selling talk and to present therein only such technical information and instructions concerning each item of apparatus referred to as is of the greatest practical value to both the user and manufacturers, of this 'apparatus. While desiring to provide the engineer, architect, contractor, estimator, purchasing agent and draftsman with a complete, convenient and reliable reference data book on modern heating and ventilating practice and equipment, The Guide Publication Committee finds that as progress is made in the industry, changes will be necessary and each Guide will represent the best known engineering practice at the time of publication. The American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers having for its purpose the advancement of the arts and sciences in its fields dedicated this volume to the service of the industry and hopes that a closer contact between the maker and user of equipment will result in improved service to the country at large. The Guide 1928 is issued with the sincere desire that it will perform a worthwhile service in advancing the ideals of modern heating-and ventilating and will perform the needed and valuable service in the advancement of this profession. f; The Guide Publication Committee Perry West, Chairman W.
