In considering climate one is
concerned not only with tempera-
ture and humidity. but also with
wind, dust, and storms, with rain,
the character OF the soil. the sun
shine and many other factors.
Heat or cold in great excess are
dangerous to health and may be
fatal to life. The effects of tenn
perature on the body are depend
cnt to a great degree on humidity.
! Warm moist climates are gen.
orally believed to have a depress-
ing effect. Cold. dry air is stimu-
lating. but as pointed out by DR..
James A Miller. demands a
capacity for response from the. in
dividual.
II the body is not able to re-
spond properly to cold. dry air. as
is the case with persons who have
been greatly weakened by long
continued illness or by old age.
the effects of cold dry air may be
harmful.
Excessive moisture has relax
ing effect which may predispose to
infection. The movement of the
air materially influences the tenn
perature and the humidity.
If the air is hot and moist.
movement of the air will aid in
elimination of heat. IF the air is
very cold. there will be an in
creased demand for heat pro-
duced from the body. If the air
is both moist and cold. conditions
are extremely uncomfortable, and
may be harmful.

OVER 5 MILLION IN GASOLINE TAX
This Is Million More Than Was
 Estimated

More than $s.0o0.000 was real- ised from the state tax on gasoline in Connecticut during 1927. State Motor Vehicle department records show. This amount is approximate ly Sl.0o0.000 above the annual rev. enue which was expected to be de- rived from this source when the tax was increased by the general as- sembly in 1925 from one to two cents q gallon. An increase of about t376.000 over 1926 is reported for the past calendar year.
 The increase in revenue follows . correspondinEiy largo increase in gasoline sales. For the year, the total taxable gasoline sales amount ed to about 15O.000.000 gallons, or about 1s.000. 900 gallons moro than was sold in the state in 1926. In addition there were sales of about S,000.000 gallons of ''non-taxable" gasoline. This amount was allowed tax free under the stato law which provides exemption for fuel used in motor boats, for purposes of manu- facture. and commercially. when not used in vehicles on the highways.
 Corresponding increases arc re- ported for other motor vehicle de- pertinent receipts during 1927. the total from all sources reaching nearly t10.000.000. The approxi- mate amount is @. 800. .000. with reg istration fees of sb.sl2.64s.5e and the gasoline tax receipts as the larg-

 eral and in his own machine in par ticular. that he left it on the strSets in Bristol and came home on . trol- ley car. according to his statement to the police last night. His failure to stop after the collisions resulted in his arrest on the charge Of evad- ing responsibility, and when his case is disposed of in local court. he win be turned over to the Bristol au- 'thortties to face . similar charge.
 Harry'L. Wainwright of 3 Charter Oak avenue. Hartford. was driving east on West Main street about S:l6 last night. when he saw . car com ing towards him on the left side of the road. Bringing his car to | stop. Wainwright expected the approach ing car would also stop but 1t con- tinued in its path until 1t struck his car, whereupon the driver backed lp turned out and continued on bis way, according to Wainwright. who reported the matter to the police. An investigation disclosed that the car was registered in the name of Kyjewski. who was not at home.
 About two hours later, the Bfis- tol police sent word to Lieutenant Bamforth that they wanted Kyjew- ski. his car having figured in an accident and continued on without stopping. Sergeant McAvay and Off, fcer Kiely went to Kyjewski's home and while they were talking to Mrs. Eyjewski. her husband came in: He said he did not stop after the acci- dent on West Main street because there was no damage and he did not consider the incident merited a delay on his trip t6 Bristol. He was taking a woman home from party, he said, and as he was driving the Bell Town a car travel. ing about 60 miles an hour came straight towards him. He was fortu- nate to escape uninjured, he said. and decided then and there to take no further chances with automo- piles. The owner of the car which figured in the Bristol collision told the police that Kyjewski was at fault and was not to be found after the accident.
 In police court today. Kyjewski's case was continued nutil tomorrow in $e00 bonds. as the states wit ness was not present.
