The agent told the father of the child that the blanket was not guaranteed to cure the patient but that 1t would make him sweat. He then showed how to use the blan- ket, took the money and depart. ed. The child died ths next af- ternoon.
 The medical examiners report was obtained and furnished to the Better Business Bureau, which in turn submitted 1t to the federal trade commission, which already had under consideration a com plaint in regard to the Vit-O-Net corporation. After hearing the evidence in the case. the commis- sion issued an order to the corpor- ation to desist from advertising, representing, claiming or stating that the heating pad had healing qualities other than those of an ordinary heating pad.

Warning that the "vit- O. Net" a large sized electric heating pad, the exploitation of which has extended to Connecticut, is merely a heating pad and possesses no magical, cure. all value, was sounded to-day by the state department of health in it's weekly bulletin.
 Occasional rumblings," the bui- letin states, suggest that people become disillusioned by learning the truth about it. Apparently the magical part of this large-sized heating pad is the ability of the agent to sell 1t for good money"

LOWER AT STATE u

State University, Missoula, Nov.
21.-Student expenses for 1928
have been studied by the school of
business administration of the
State University and have been
compared with a similar study for
1929-1930. In comparison with
eastern universities it is shown
that the State University students
expenditures are much lower.
Three years ago, the comparison
shows, the average amount spent
by upperclassmen was $818.78 per
year. 1t is $667.91 this year, a re-
duction of S150.S7. One important
item which absorbs 40 per cent of
the students money is board and
room, which has been materially
reduced. Most f~raternities, soror-
tiles and boarding houses have
followed the lead of the Univer-
sity dormitories in reducing rates.
Dormitory rates have been cut
from $50 per month to $50 per
month. The balance of the re-
duction comes in almost all items
of students expenditure. There
are many cases this year where
students are expecting to spend
practically nothing for amuse-
ment and entertainment. Expend-
itures for toilet items, travel, fra
ternity, clothing and books have
all been cut.
