was an affair worthy Of careful

meeting Of boys and girls alone.
These meetings proved electric
In their Influence. First, the
boys made out a new code Of
ethics for their treatment Of
girls. The girls followed with
similar, definite resolutions as to
more careful behavior. Then the
entire, student body voted to de.

about the regrettable error Of

They also voted to defend the
honor Of the school on every
future occasion and to make
known to the community in every
reasonable manner that the great
majority Of the pupils Of that In

SECRETS OF HEALTH

If not tea or coffee then pos
stbly some form Of alcohol-lf
you can get it.
This was precisely the philos-
ophy underlying rhe old time
habit when at ten o'clock in the
morning or q little later, there
was q general rush for beer.
There was also q too general
disregard Of the fact that, while
a little alcohol Is a stimulant, too
much alcohol is q depressant.

they are provided with a little
sugar to eat while working.
The afternoon.tea habit, espe.
cially as practiced in Europe, has
it's foundation In a four-o'c clock
fatigue, which may or may not
be pronounced. the whole practice
being made more attractive by q
few colories worth Of food to
which 10 added the advantage OF
a little rest ana the flavor Of
sociability.
It has been found in both mill
tary and civil experience that en-.
DURANGO IL better maintained ana
fatigue more promptly overcome
by taking q little sugar than by
taking either caffein or alcohol.
and II has been estimated that q
chief element in the reputed
sustaining qualities Of both coffee
and tea is the sugar that is taken
with them.
Fats Of all sorts, butter fat,
other animal fats and vegetable
fats in the order named, when
available. are also Of extreme
value in speedily overcoming ia

But there Is one remedy for
fatigue that must always stand
