I WOULD BE LESS THAN HUMAN if I did not feel a deep gratitude to the Institute, and its Edison Medal Committee for the high honor bestowed on me—and if I did not feel a certain amount of pride in this honor.

These associates create the proper working atmosphere, they train or assist the individual, offer guidance and suggestions, share his work and, in short, make the man a member of the team.
