Yale To Construct
 Surgical Building
Million Dollar Unit to Be Added to Yales MOdernzed
 Plant at New Haven Hospital

New Haven, Conn, June 1s.-Yale university now has in hand 1,10O,- 900 for the erection of surgical building at the New Haven hospital, |according to an announcement made to-day by President James Rowland Angel. The funds are provided by the bequest of Mrs Sarah Wey Tompkins, whose father, Dr William |C. Wey, faithfully served the com munity of Elmira, New York, for half a century as a leading physician and surgeon. Mrs Tompkins in her lifetime gave to the university the great tract of land near the Yale Bowl now known as the Ray Tomp- kins Memorial, in memory of her husband. In her will, she made 8 bequest to Yale which has proved sufficient to enable the university now to proceed with this new pro- ject in accordance with the wishes expressed by the donor prior to her death. Work on the new building to be known as the Sarah Wey Tompkins Memorial, will be begun promptly, President Angell said, in order that the community may have the benefit of it's usefulness as soon as possible.
 The erection of this unit brings near to completion the moderniza- tion of the entire physical plant of the New Haven hospital, in accord ance with plan adopted five years ago. Three sections of the hospital must still be provided. These are the pavilion for contagious dis eases, an addition to the private pavilion for persons of moderate means, and a women's pavilion. The completed plant will then represent an investment of $8,000,000 in build- ings, of which approximately $6,- 5O0,O0O has now been obtained.
 The new building will have five hospital floors, and a ground floor for "out-patient," or dispensary, ser vice. On the ground floor will be To- cated examining and treatment roms for surgery, including orthope- dies. urology, physical therapy, and

new idea SAVES
SILK HOSE

Expensive at best, silk hose and
undergarmentS are made doubly so
by improper washing. A fashion
expert has found new, simple way
to correct this.
She adds a tablespoonful Of En-
engine to every quart of lukewarm,
soapy water. Then she washes and
rinses the articles as usual The
addition of Energine removes all
the body excretionS that soften
and rot silk.
The results are amazing. Not only
does this method give new cleanli-
ness and freshness with original
color revived, but actually gives
longer life to hose and undergar-
ments. Try this new method. It's
easier and quicker than just soap
and water alone, means less rub
bfng and insures extra wear that
will surprise you.
Energine is unexcelled, also, for
quickly removing all dirt and grease
spots from dresses, hats, gloves,
shoes, etc. Large can 35 cents at

show in the big tent at the corner
of Seventh and State streets. The
show will continue throughout the
remainder of the day and until
10 o'clock tonight. Doors will open
again Saturday morning at 10
O'Clock and remain open until 10
o'clock at night. Edgar Brothers,
local Ford dealers, are sponsoring
| the exhibition.
! An interesting and instructive in
sight into the manner in which
Ford automobiles are made is
shown in the talking picture, The
Rouge River Plant" The film is
shown continuously and should
not be missed by man, woman
or child in Ell Centro.
Elimination of the human ele-
! ment in construction work is the
aim of the industry as machinery
is more accurate. Many of the
presses shown weigh $50 tons and
exert a pressure of 500 tons.
The greatest installation of cleo
tric furnaces in the world is
shown in action in the film. The
Rouge River plant alone employs
100000 men.
Parts are shipped to 80 domestic
and l2 foreign assembly plants.
Johansson gauges on display are
said to have an accuracy Of two
millionths part of an inch.
