Historia Yale BUILDING.

An item in tie New Haven Register
opens an interesting field of research
to Yale men WHO are proud of the his
tory of their college, inasmuch as it
indicates that one of the buildings is
tie oldest structure in
North Americaf Itsappears that fire
was discovered In Connecticut hall one
day and was extinguished without
much difficulty In telling of it, the
Register conclIfdes its remarks as fol-
lows: Connecticut hall is the oldest
building owned by the university. It
Vas erected in 1885,, and taken over
by the collegekwhen that institution
was founded here. One can imagine
with. what emotions Davenport, Eaton,

ture, then almost century old, when
they landed on the shores of the new

In the many months that have
passed since I began this series
of articles, / have discussed the
entrance of various nations into
the world war and sought to in

our own country has become a
belligerent, it is necessary to do

quite impartially what the mil.

belligerent will bring. The en-
