LETTERS I'D THE EDITOR
Our Ponds for Skating.

MT Editor: I should like a conspicu- ous space in your columns on the sub ject of our ponds for skating.
 l think the playground association ought to hire someone to blow the snow from the pond, immediately after the storms, for there is even now fine sport lying dormant there under the snow on Earnings, while we younger set have time hanging on our hands. 5 Would it be any tremendous expense to the association to see that a man kept the pond in fit shape, scraping it after the storms, etc.
 If the members of the association will recall their skating days, when the snow put an end to their jolly sport, they perhaps will think a little on the subject A lover of the

INSURED FOR $5,Ooo,ooo $
 FOR ONLY THREE HOURS. Banking House Guards Against Theft During Transfer of Valusbles.

New York, Jan. 1S-A $5, 5,000, ,000 in- surance policy. the life of which is three hours, was issued to guarantee a New York banking house against loss by highwaymen during the transfer from the burned Equitable building of fortune in cash and securities which must be carried for six blocks through the streets. Although the surety com pany which issued the policy takes the risk of loss during the three hours which it is estimated will be required for the transfer, the actual work of protection develops upon the city, for squad of police will be the only guards. The surety company called the policy a 'holdup and robbery pol icy,' and received $500 for the risk.

between Yale and the city more har- monious.
 The work of the committee on bus ines information in bringing together Yale men who have positions to fill and Yale men who want to fill them has been of an encouraging nature during the past year. Two hundred and sixty-six made use of the ser vices of the committee, 156 being ap- plicants for positions. Of the no po- sitions open, 40 were filled. wider knowledge of the work of the commit tee will greatly increase the scope of its activities and benefits. It's head quarters are at the Yale club, 30 West 44th street, New York city.
 President Taft will be welcomed to New Haven today and tonight, at the banquet of the New Haven chamber of commerce, at which he will be the guest of honor, and principal speaker. Senator Bailey and Dr. Wise of New York will also be present. Tomorrow the president will attend the January meeting of the Yale corporation and remain at lunch as the guest of President Hadley.
 A proposal that will increase the ef- ficiency of the Yale Medical school is that of the urion of the New Haven general hospital and the Medical school, whereby the school will nom mate the hospital staff, subject to con- | frmation of the hospital board of di- rectors. The school already has some of the hospital appointments, and their extension will result in still better practical instruction for the medical students.

In regard to encouragement of the college year, it is stated that a plan is to be presented to the faculty short Iy, which will favor placing the semi annual examinations in a week in the middl of the year. instead of before Christmas vacation. The same plan was voted down by teh faculty sev- eral years ago, but the adherents of the plan seem to have arisen again with renewed vigor.
 At the present time the college year is divided into thirds, with examina- tions in December and June. It is considered possibly that the postpone ment of examinations would allow the longer Christmas vacation, of which the western students have been de- sirous. Then the Prom. festivities, which are always a distraction from college work, could come after the mid-year examinations, without in truding so seriously on studies. The new method would bring the fall term to an end at one time for everybody, while under the present systm some are held much longer for examina- tions than others, which, of course, causes much dissatisfaction.
 The change would, on the other hand, necessitate a encouragement of work on the part of the faculty, which by some has been regarded as of doubtful advisability.
