But even In those days there were some 50 tnorthodox and sfeptical as to ask:
 What afr Is one expected to Breathe if the night If not night airT" Of course there has been most radical change of view in this matter since those palmy days, for it has been clearly established that pure air, hot or cold, by day of night, is q preventive rather than pro mot6r, of disease. still farther science Is now claiming that weather conditions have nothing whatever to do iti causing disease.

Professors 1 have joined in the sport and have thus enlarged the social life of the college. 1 Sometimes all of the huts are occupied by different punches of students. who, l after rest and refreshments move on to another.

W ,s can now understand why one of the CO ., barons has recently allayed our fea # of a possible coal shortage by stating tn Pennsylvania has coal enough to last Io thousand years If present methods CO ly tinue it doubtless will.
