is found that the wires in many in

The committee recommends that the

the work is found to be satisfactory.
Also that without this certificate the
power shall not be turned on.

from 100000 to 100000 worth of prop

the limited facilities now at hand. they
say, great damage would result.
1t is thought that in the near future
measures will be taken to utilize big

Elaborate preparations are being

The movements of the Yacht there

German naval officers are eager for
assignments to accompany Prince Hem

young noblemen are bringing influence

duty. The list Of possible appointments
IS already several times larger than the
suite which can be sent with Prince
Henry. This pressure to secure places
may cause the princes suit to be en-
larged. The lack Of accommodations
for number of persons on board the
is the real reason why
Prince Henry does not sell on the i'm

There is considerable talk about col

Greek letter societies. The way the
matter stands now frequently man
is pledged before coming to college and
before he has had an opportunity to
see the different societies. Many times
he does not join set which is con-
genial to him and the college course is
therefore made unpleasant. On the
other hand the chapters pledge men in
the preparatory schools who often turn

Many colleges have adopted plans of
pledging freshmen at a certain time

When off the Lizard the record of the

OF the Marconi successes OK the west
