Helpful club, comprised of pupils of
Professor Suofler, was held at the home
evening.
The evening was devoted principally
to the singing of favorite songs. each
one on the program making his own
selection. In all there were ten who
sang. The program covered songs of
the classics, folk songs and modern
songs. Following the program, Profess

Quite true. Renewing the air means adj

Dr. Freeman even advocates the open cold

Finally DIR. Freeman concludes, as though
with malicious intent to shock the fshwives

favorably influenced by cold, fresh, moving

Of the salutary harmless, pleasant effect Of
