not for sale. Save for nephew, young
man OF perhaps 26. who lives in California.
II ere is no one to inherit the place and the
Wendell millions when the sisters are gone.
Despite the many stories current as to
why the property has never been Sold the
real reason Is just sentiment and sisterly
love. Not long ago the women OF the Wen
del home the Misses Mary, Georgiana and
Ellen, were criticised by many because "they
kept a million dollar playground for dog
Withal this criticism they remained silent.
One OF the sisters is blind-has been for
years--yet through her sense of touch she
has grown to know every nook and Granny
of the old house. every stick of furniture
and almost every blade Of grass in the back
yard. Rather than cause misstep, or lest
she lose her way. the others have never per-
mitted the position of one piece of furniture
to be changed In fact. the house and its
furnishings stand to-day exactly as they
did when the Wendell family first took pos
session.
Within the last few years, though certain
radical" improvements have been installed.
For instance there is now a telephone, there
is a garage and they are the owners OF an
automobile. luxuries that were unknown in
the house when the brother John was alive.
Then the sisters did their own shopping,
personally selected the fruits and vegetables
that were to grace their table and personally
carried them home To-day all that Is
changed The food is bought by the SER.
wants or else 1t is ordered by telephone.
Now New York wonders what is to become
of the old house. for the blind sister-she
for whom IL was kept intact--no longer lives
there. She Is In Europe. but when she went
and her actual whereabouts are questions
that the Misses Mary and Ellen refuse to
answer. Rumor has IT, though that she is
somewhere In Germany.
Whether the sisters will continue In their
determination not TO sell is interesting
question. particularly to those active In the
development OF the city, for to-day there is
not the same incentive to hold onto the
house. and 1t seems entirely too large for
the two sisters remaining

Statistics compiled by class OF students

her point. Records have been taken at the
college since 1884 of the various physical
measurements OF the entering Vassar fresh
men. making a total of over 1000 cases.
The earlier records are. of course, based on
fewer cases than those of recent years.
The waist measure shows the most inter

the FIVE year period 1SS4-90-26is inches,
against 25h inches. The middle period. how

The old fashioned swedish drill is very

that pleases or gives feeling of pleasurable
exercise. n is more like drudgery. Tennis
basketball hockey and the like on the other
hand create wide awake interest in the sport
itself and the physical drill side is forgotten;
yet the exercise is Just as beneficial. This
condition is as IL should be. according TO Mr.
Bezdek.

accomplish great deal more good in their

az the sports are held in moderation there
can be none other than beneficial effects"

The height has also gradually increased
from feet inches in 1SS4-1S90 to feet
inches in 1916-1920. The weight and height
have therefore been approximately proper
tional. II is interesting to note that the re-
laton between the height and weight In
1919-1s20 is somewhat the same as II was
recently found to be among Harvard men

Accurate lung capacity statistics have only
been taken since 1901. Here there has also
