PENDANT In the case of Bates College vs..
City of Lewiston. which was referred TO
him.
The conditions of the case in brief were
as follows:
Bates College erected a brick block
known as the Kresge building, on leased
land Tire party who leased the land to
the college reserved the right to purchase
the block, at the expiration of 20 years
the time stated in the lease. The lease
expressly provided that the college should
pay the taxes assessed on the land dur
ing the time of the lease. The college au-
fhorities claimed that the building thus
erected on leased land like all other col
lege property should be exempt from tax

eollege by the city of Lewiston for sum
of $1S0.32 for year of 1911 ana the taxes
were paid under protest. The question
whether the building should be exempt
from taxation was referred to Chief JUS
tice Whitehouse who held that the col
iege should pay taxes on the block as il
was not used as a part of the college. for
educational purposes.

HOW TO RESIST
Chronic Coughs and Colds.

hardly ever catch cold; it's only when
the system is run down and vitality
low that colds and coughs get a foot
hold.
Now isn't it reasonable that the
right way to cure a cough is to build
up your run down condition again?
Mrs. Olivia Parham of East Dur
ham, n. c., says: 4 took Vinol for a
chronic cough which had lasted two
years and the cough not only disap-
pearcd but it built up my strength as

The reason Ninol is SO efficacious in
such cases is because il contains in a
delicious concentrated form all the
medicinal curative elements of cod liv
er oil, with tonic, blood building iron
added.
Chronic coughs and colds yield to
Vinol because it builds up the weak
ened, rundown system.
You can get your, money back any

Walking is the most valuable stimulant
not only to the physical structure or the
body but favers the orderly arrangement
Of ideas. ANY one of the successful men
of the country will testify that ideas
orient themselves in proper relation to
long walks Many of the older philosoph-
ers realized this and delivered their best
orations while engaged in walking in
groups about the groves of Athens.
Where two or more are walking to-
gether conversation is likely to turn up
on common interests, which among
school children centre in school affairs.
With the slightest effort to direct this
thought, school work may be made con-
crete and definite and become implanted
in proper delation to child life and ex-
perience more soidly than by classroom
drill. however effective that might be.
There are so many things going on in
the city that a walk of a single block
will present to any observing pupil items
of great interest to him. If the habit OF
observation is formed and the habit of
recording observation follows it. a most
definite training in this faculty may be
obtained and the bulk of important
knowledge of civic facts will be in
creased.
Much may be learned about the city
govednment The street making and
maintenance departments of the borough
presidents Office the street cleaning de-
partment. the department of police and
its traffic regulation and the department
of health are always evident in their
work or in the effects of their labor.
Civics is taught in the schools as a
subject subordinate to history and geo.
graphy. and consistent endeavor is made
to apply its teachings to daily life, for
the child will become the citizen. There
is no better way to make facts concrete
than tv the Laboratory method. and
the going a1eld provides this opportunity.
