IS TOLD
OF SCHOOL CLOSING
Commissioners Reply to the Board of Educatons Cr-
cism of Lack of Heat in the M Street Building
Furnaces Were Being Changed.

9 and 8 o'clock. on or about April "a,
I have been above 90 degrees. There was
| no reason to believe that the unseason-
able weather that preceded the Easter
holidays would continue for any length
of time, and as a matter of fact the
temperature at II o'clock, April "a was
about 30 degrees, and at 4 o'clock that
afternoon, 70 degrees. The schools were
closed one day, and the temperature
during scho"l hours rose above 70 de-
grees on each succeeding day OF that
week.
Call 1t Questionable.
Under such circumstances u i" "..>
tionable whether the closing of the
schools was necessary.
The Commissioners regret that the
Board" of Education found it neces-
sary to close the schools, but would
invite attention to the fact that in
making contracts, normal conditions
are assumed and time limits are fixed
on work, provision being made for
liquidated damages for failure to COM
plete on time"
AS the result of the removal of the
furnaces, the Board of Education Sc
verely criticised Municipal Architect
Snowden Ashford. who was called up
on at the boards request to make a
formal report to the Commissioners.

THAT PERPETUAL YOUTH
SYRUP

! A premature. Christmas pres
ent to all the worlds old spavs
and hasbeens, who have been
lodging Osler's chloroform bot
tie, comes in the shape of state
: ment from Professor Elio Metch-
nikoff, the noted microscopic,
who believes he has found the old
age germ.
: Tidings of great cheer, peace
on earth, good will to men!
: Why shouldn't there be, with
such an announcement to form
the foundation of a genuine
thanksgiving that death has been
robbed of its terrors and old age
of its usual misery?
The fact that some employers
: treat their human hirelings like
7inanimate machines, possessing
: neither heart, soul nor conscience,
: doesn't make them machines.
Nor are such employers justified
! in putting employees on the scrap
epile, merely because that is the
method adopted to get rid of old
machinery.
The world owes everybody
living, who is willing to work for
it, and increasing age doesn't
seem to lessen the general desire
to live.
:, Prof. Metchnikoff says this
/. old age germ keeps on multiply
ing with years, until finally it
seizes on mans vitality, caus-
: ing the hair to turn gray, the skin
to wrinkle and the limbs and es-
: sential organs to deteriorate.
