nounced to Be Great
Success

Indoor Athletics, Dances,
Theatre and Eating
Parties

Mortified, Feb. l5.--The annual
winter carnival held at Norwich uni
versity Feb. 10, IL and IL was consld-
cred success by everyone who at
tended. The first day OF the carnival
was celebrated by the freshman hop
held in the armofy hall. Music was
furnished by Carroll's orchestra OF
Barre. The hall was decorated in ma
room and gold, Norwich colors, and the
class colors, purple and gold. Each
fraternity had its booth decorated in
original style around the sides of the
hall. The blue dress uniform and the
evening gowns, with the subdued light
from the center of the hall, made a
very pleasing effect
Friday morning an exhibition polo
game was held at the new riding hall
between picked teams from the Junior
and senior classes. Four periods OF
ten minutes each with two fairly even
" matched teams (blue and redl gave
victory to the blue team with score
of 5 to 8. The polo exhibition was the
first that has been given in the new
hall and demonstrated that a strong
team can be selected from such mate
rial to represent Norwich in the games
scheduled with several Of the New
England colleges. A flshy game was
put up by White and Switzer for the
blues, while Zwart was the mainstay
for the red team.
In the afternoon ski and toboggan
jumping took place on the hill Just
east of the university, which affords
a toboggan slide of nearly quarter
Of mile and ski course OF the same
length. Because OF the snowstorm the
course was not in the best condition,
but after considerable use it made fair
ly good sliding. Holder, Walker, II. h.
and Austin won first, second and third
places, respectively, in the ski jump,
ing contest. Northrop, Styles and
Steele with their crews won the places
in the toboggan jumping. Due to the
sticky condition of the snow, no rec
ord Jumps were made, and it was rath-
er difficult to keep in the track,
The toboggan jumping was exciting
as frequently the parties jumped the
sides OF che course, and made their
own paths to the bottom OF the hill
covering themselves with the light
snow until they could not be seen IN
the snow spray which went all over
them. Northrop made a jump of 4g
feet, but on previous occasions, with
the snow in better condition, jumps OF
5000 feet have been made with to-
boggans over the same course.
The evening was enjoyed by open
house at the fraternity house parties

bright-ideal conditions for any kind
of winter sport. The senior class put
on fancy mounted drill at the riding
hall. after which an exhibition Jump.
ing contest was given by picked horse
men from the same class. The RIB
bon winners were Morgan, blue rib
bon: Carroll, red ribbon and Walters,
yellow ribbon They gave a fine exhi-
bition of Workmanship, and the jumps
were so we'll made in several cases
that ties had to be settled by a new
attempt at the course. The hurdles
consisted of broad jump Of fence
rails, a picket fence, hedge, and final
", a stone wall
In the afternoon basketball game

ling bv Merchant, '23, and Hoyt, 81,
in the l45-pound class; also Sparrow,

in catch as -eatch-can style. In the first
bout there was no decision, as the
men were very evenly matched as to
science. In the second bout in the
heavyweight class, Flanders, who out
weighed Sparrow by % pounds, was
given the decision; however, Sparrow
showed more skill and agility.
The Savoy theatre was engaged for
the evening. and feature picture was

CAPE COD DOOMED
IF MAN DOESN'T ACT
Wellesley College Professor Declares
That Great Breakwater Ought to
Extend Along the
Ocean Side.

Wellesley, Mass, Feb l5.-Early
consideration of plans for a great
breakwater to extend along the ocean
side of Cape Cod south OF Highland
light was urged to-day as the salvation
of the long peninsula by Miss Eliza
beth +. Fisher, professor of geology at
Wellesley college. Discussing the prob
lem before a group of alumnae, Miss
Fisher declared that if artificial OBJ
structions were not placed in the way
of the oceans thrusts Cape Cod was
doomed.
Pointing out that the ocean side of
the cape once presented a series OF IT.
regular headlands, Miss Fisher said
that the upward current along the
shore from Chatham, together with the
direct pounding of the Atlantic, was
making rapid strides, in a geological
way, toward wearing the land back to
a point which eventually would mean
the inevitable rush of the ocean into
the waters of Cape Cod bay. The north
ern end of the cape would thus be cut
off. Provincetown would become little
more than menace to navigation, as
a shifting sand deposited island in deep
water, gradually moving northwest I'M
til it disappeared.
Miss Fisher was unwilling to proph-
esy just how long it would take the
ocean to complete its work. 1T all de-
pends," she said, ION the degree of in
tensity of future storms. When the
arm of the cape does 20, however, it is
certain to go quickly. A strong sea
wall such as the wall at Galveston,
Texas, is the cape's only hope

BIG EATERS GET

Take Salts at First Sign of Bladder
Irritation or Back

The American men and women must
guard constantly against kidney trou-
bile. because we eat too much and all
our food is rich. Our blood is filled
with uric acid which the kidneys strive
to filter out, they weaken from over
work, become sluggish; the elimlnatTe
tissues clog and the result is kidney
trouble. bladder weakness and a gem
eral decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps
of lead; your back hurts or the urine
is cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with
sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells,
acid stomach, or you have rheumatism
when the weather is bad, get from your
pharmacist about four ounces OF Jad
Salts; take q tablespoonful in glass
of water before breakfast for few
DAYS and your kidneys will then act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acids of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
clogged kidneys; to neutralize the acids
in the urine SO it no longer IS source
of irritation, thus ending bladder dis
orders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
lure, makes a delightful efferveseent
lithia wather beverage, and belongs IN
every home because nobody can make
mistake by having good kidney
flushing at any time.-Adv.
