Burlington, Feb. 4.--Dr. A. L. Arnoss,
who is to carry ON the research work in
vestigatiug poliomyelitis at the college

detrimental work was done at the labora-
tory to-day. The doctor spent yesterday

10 assist him in his work. in the labora-
tory, putting the finishing touches upon
apparatus which win be needed in the
experiments.
DIR. Amoss stated yesterday that the
laboratory in general and its equipment
in particular was all that could be de-
sired. The laboratory has been outftted
with all Of the latest apparatus which
il needed in the work and its location
in the southwest corner Of the medical
college il ideal. II is the purpose OF
Or. Amoss TO find out through labora-
tory methods the presence Of and the
carrier Of the disease by blood and inocu-
lation tests. IL is known that the dis
ease may be transferred by carriers
where its presence is not manifest.
The fifty monkeys upon which the ex-
pertinent will he made are in the best
OF condition. Five Of the cages ordered
in which they will be kept have arrived
