 It was stated by men close to Yale rowing today that if Lader is seek ing first assistant in coaching the prospects were that the entire coach ing staff next year would be new one and that full authority for de- Nelopment of the rowing squads, both varsity and freshman would rest with him. This would mean the eimina- ton of the Corderry brothers whose contracts run to March next but who it is understood, have expressed a willingness to retire at once.

UNABLE TO RECOGNIZE VOICE
Man Never Hears His Own Speech az
Do tho People With Whom
He Talks.

The last person a man becomes &C.
quainted with is himself. He cannot
see himself as. others see him, nor can
he even hear his own voice with the
ears of the rest Of the world. In proof
of this latter, a French authority de-
scribes some of his experiments.
If a person records on photograph
a few sentences pronounced by HIM
self, together with others by his
friends, and causes the machine to re-
produce these, 1t generally happens
that he easily recognizes his friends
voices, but not his own. On the other
hand, the friends recognize his voice
perfectly. This fact proves that every
one hears his own voice differently
from the others.
- The difference lies in the quality or
the tone. One hears his own voice, not
only through the air, as do his audi
tors, but across the solid parts stu
ated between the organs of speech and
those of hearing. The sound thus pro-
duced has different timbre from that
conducted to the ear by the air above.
Take the end of wooden rod be-
tween the teeth and pronounce vowel
continuously. Let the other end be
alternately taken between the teeth
and released by another person, who,
at the same time, stops his ears.
The latter will find that every time
he SEXES the rod in his teeth, the
sound is stronger than when it reaches
the ear through the air above, and has
different quality. The passage OF
sound through solid body augments
it's intensity and modifies its quality.

Handing a clerk one dollar gold

From the New York Times
White Narcissus-in bowl.
Four bulbs l bought, and watcher
the whole
Month long for them to give their
bloom
And fragrance 10 my sitting room.
And each OF them the sunlight knew,
To each was given water. too,
And yet at first but ono bulb grew,
And. rising, seemed just overnight
To reach more than common height
And then tho budding blossom dried
Turned yellow, without sccnt-and
diedi
Two others from their pebble bed
Thrust up an eager shining head.
And though they nourishcd tall and
green
No bud on either stalk was seen.
Tho last-I feared this stuntod thing
No joy to eyes would ever bring;
No petaled cup OF white would swing
Upon its short and slender stem;
No splendid little flower gem
Would crown it-but with all my doubt
a perfect bloom has blosscmcd out!
So lives. all beautiful and cold.
Deny the promise they forctold.
While others grow and leave the Earth
A beauty which they lacked at birth.
The weak can influence the strong;
The right be gathered from the wrong:
Tho dumb compose n lasting song;
The blind-in wonders they create,
Sec visions that shall compensate;
From LIES unfavorcd shines n soul
Like White Narcissus-in n bowl
