ADebate by Inv students

Government ownership OF the telegraph
and telephone systems of the United
States was the subject of an interesting
debate last evening by members of the de-
batting society of the law school Of the
Columbian University. Senator Mason,
who was one of the judges of the debate,
stated, in delivering the decision. that ar
guments had been advanced by the advo-
Gates and opponents of the proposition
which he had never heard before. The
debaters were contestants for the honor of
competing for places in the annual debate
OF the society, which will take place in
the autumn. The resolution debated was:
Resolved, That the Government should own and
operate the telegraph and telephone systems Of
the United States.
The proposition was defended by C. o.
Guynes, Miss J. G. Tyssowski, and John
Boyle, and opposed by R. B. Watts, E. l..
Davis. and L. II. La Chance. The deci-
sion OF the judges was in favor of the
negative. In the contest for thought,
composition. and delivery, Mr. Davis was
named first and Mr.. Boyle second.

In life, as in Journeys. it is a great deal
easier to go down hill than up.
Not only is woman naturally mans in
her environment and the unwritten but
universally accepted laws governing her
daily life are such as to keep her life and

Popular taste demands that she possess
a neat, trim figure, and to meet this de-

chest walls that certainly do not contrib

There is life in the air we breathe"
and TO get ones full share of life and
strength the lungs. the great purifying
laboratory OF the body, must have full
scope for action. Any compression of the
chest wall robs the lungs OF a correspond
ing amount of space and in;erferes with
their action.
Such compression also seriously affects
the heart which is the great engine that
supplies power and action to the lungs.
To insure health and supply the body
with necessary oxygen the air must pene-

This accounts for the fact that women

much increased by their going from over

making calls or going to places of amuse-
ment or on shopping tours.
And yet the average woman doesn't get

Thus. early peas will give a crop OF

seeded to winter rye, which will fur
nish an early spring green crop to the
stock. AS fast as the rye is cut the
land may be sown to peas and oats for
