for maintenance. The great in.
crease in attennance at the various
institutions is responsible for the
extra demand for appropriations.
The most businesslike way of ham
ding these appropriations would
be by a budget system. The board
of regents could then apportion the
appropriations among the various
institutions as their needs demand
ed-something that the ordinary
legislator is unable to do intelli-
gently.

loss by fire last Monday night on
their farm in the northeast part Of

A certain Lancashire town boasts a

The drummer, according to the Tat
Ter, is about five feet high and rather
deaf. but he thinks nobly Of his i'm
portance to the band. When the band
parades, 1t always takes the same
course through the main streets; but
the other day the leader, for some
purpose known only to himself, turned
down bystreet. The little drummer
did not see what was happening in
front OF him, for to compensate for his
lack OF heighh he holds his drum high
before him So with his gaze con-
contracted on his music he banged
away, and marched straight ahead, as
usual. About five minutes afterward
he finished his part, and, hearing no
other instruments, he stopped. Part
OF the crowd had accompanied him,
and they gave him cheer. But he
was i'll at ease. He showed his drum
to ono side and gazed ahead; then on
the other, and did likewise But he saw
no band. Then, in uneasy astonish-
ment, he turned to the smiling by

WHEN LOOKING FOR GAS LEAK
Some Safety Rules Which May Do
Away With Necessity Of Engaging
Services Of Undertaken.

Here is set OF standard instruc-
tons for persons who notice gas in
their rooms:
II the smell of gas is strong, first
ventilate the room.
Then examine the keys to the FIX
lures, stove or other appliances. One
OF them may be partly open.
If a fixture or connection is broken
be sure your windows are raised ;
then go to the nearest phone and no.
tify the gas company.
After notification try to putty up
the leak or close it with any substance
that will make an effective plug.
Never look for a leak with a match
or any flame, lantern or lamp.
II you find a person overcome by
the gas, throw up the windows, drag
the unconscious one to the open air
and then telephone a physician.
After telephoning the physician,
telephone the gas company and tell
OF the accident. Most companies now
own pulmotors. 1t is an appliance for
pumping gas out of a persons lungs
and injecting pure air in its stead
This Is an invaluable aid to the
doctor
