 August24 1888


 To the Public:
 We regret that we are forced to make a statement to the public rel atIye to petty thievery, such as the stealing of gas. which has taken place from time 10 time on the Wrangell Institute Reserve.
 Recently employees have observed persons sinking about the campus late at night-in one instanceI coming out of a building in which they had no business. This is tres. passing and punishable by law. Such persons are hereby warned that henceforth drastic action will be taken in such instances. We wish to quote paragraph tC) Of section 35. the Act of Congress, Public No. 465. 10th Congress, chapter 69. 3rd session. H. R SS36 approved April i. 1888. which reads:
 And whoever shall take and ear. ry away or take for his use, or for the use of another, with intent to steal or purloin. or shall willfully iniure or commit any depreciation against, any property of the United States. or any branch or department thereof. or any corporation in which the United States of America is stockholder. or any property which has been or is being made, manu- factured or constructed under con tract for the War or Navy Depart ments of the United States, shall be punished as follows. If the value of such property exceeds the sum of $50, by a fine of not more than S10,000 or imprisonment for not more than ten years. or both; if the value Of such property does not exceed the sum of $50, by a fine of not more than $1,000 or by im- prisonment in a jail for not more than one year. or both. Value, as used in this section. shall mean market value Of cost price, either wholesale or retail, whichever shall be the greater"
 IL should be distinctly understood that this is a federal reserve and that all property thereon is protec- ted by law.
 We of the Institute welcome Wrangell visitors and their friends 10 our school at all reasonable hours. However, we feel that If visitors wish to go through the buildings they should make their wishes known to the proper authorities.
 Another problem which has given concern to the faculty and principal in the past has been the entering on and driving about the campus Of certain young people who have set up a noisy disturbance after the students have retired for the night. The road of the main highway is a private driveway, and such parties have no business thereon at late hours We respectfully request that such action on the part of these young people cease. We trust that this friendly warning will be sui ficient.
 At this time We Of the Institute wish to express to our good friends of WrangelI our sincere thanks and gratitude Tor the many kind acts and courtesies which they have ex- tended to both the students and faculty.

SMOKE PROBLEM BEFORE BOARD
Protest Filed By Residents Against Nuisance; Ac-
 ton Anticipated

Smoke and soot from the Wilby high school chimneys, which has become a subject of much discus sion by the residents of the school district, is expected to be brought up again at the next meeting of the board of education, Monday after noon at 4 o'clock.
 At the last meeting, the subject was brought up following the pre- sentation of communications re- garding the conferences to reduce the price of bituminous coal. Chair man John J. Walsh suggested that the schools might in the future ex- pertinent with a new "smokeless coal'.
 Acton on the Wilby situation is expected to be taken forthwith, in view of the fact that Mrs. Emma Lowell, a new member of the board, is resident of the vicinity of the school. At the last board meeting she stated that she had received numerous complaints from her neighbors, who disliked the soot and dirt which permeated the air upon discharge from the Wilby chimney.
 Chairman Walsh said that an official from the stoker company which installed the furnaces in the school was to investigate the mat ter this week, and suggest remedies.

company have announced. They ex- plain that most causes of death take 8 greater toll among males than among females. An outstand- ing example is the mortality from alcoholism, which accounts for nearly nine times as many deaths among white men as among white women. On the other hand, cancer is the most important disease hav- ing 8 higher female mortality than male, though the contrast in this case is not very great, the death rates being respectively 89.9 and 85.8 per 100000.
 From Childhood
 The mortality experience of the Metropolitan Life Insurance com- pany's white industrial policyhold- CTS, for the period 1931-1935, and government figures for the entire population of the country, not only shows the, greater vulnerability of the male sex but indicate that it exists from early childhood to old age.
 Next to alcoholism, the greatest excesSeS of male over female mor- tality result from ulcer of the duo- denum, the white male death rate being more than six times as great as that of white females, and ulcer of stomach which causes the death of nearly five times as many males as females. Four times as many white men as women are victims of homicide, while the suicide ratio for men and women is three and one half to one. The accidental death rate for the five-year period aver aged 93.6 per 100000 for males and only 288 for females. Syphilis and allied diseases kill proportionately three times as many men as women among white persons. Other diseases showing considerably higher death rates for white males are the cardi- ovascular-renal diseases, pneumonia, tuberculosis, appendicitis, and in- huenZa.
 Causes of Death
 There are, of course, also certain important causes of death which are exclusively restricted to females, namely diseases of the female sex organs, which tend to counterbal- ance the advantage otherwise favoring this sex. Other diseases registering a higher death rate for women than for men are, aside from cancer already mentioned, intestinal obstruction, pernicious anemia, pel- lagra, diabetes, biliary calculi, and exophthalmic goiter. Deaths from the last mentioned are nearly six times more frequent among women than among men.
 Practically no difference in the death rate of the sexes is evident in measles, diphtheria and scarlet fever. Whooping cough, however, shows a consistently higher death rate for young girls than for boys.
 Common Risks
 "The two sexes have many risks in common, and in addition each has its own peculiar risks" the statisticians explain. Tn the case of the male, the risks are in part occupa tional, or arise from the characteristic life habits of this sex but in part they are an inborn con- stitutional handicap, as shown by the fact that even in early child hood the male shows a higher death rate than the female. All in all, the male is biologically the more vul- nerable sex"

overlooking the water.
 The lake, covering about 25 acres, is to be drained as soon as weather permits and sand beach constructed along the west and south shores. The dam on the south Is to be raised three feet, lifting the water level by that amount ana eliminating shadows through the channel which divides the south from the north end of the lake.
 Scout Executive Babson was en- thusiastic when describing the new site.
 Tt is handy to every one of our troops" he said, q think the place has unlimited possibilities and will give the Mattatuck Council one of the very finest camps in the state.
 Considerable work will be done, but even as it stands, the location is satisfactory for preliminary needs. We have ample open land for ath- ietic fields and all other scouting activities"
 Easily Accessible
 The field is about seven miles from Waterbury, and five from Thomaston. The Greystone Road, a lightly travelled highway, is about 300 yards from the proposed main camp site.
 The site has received enthusiastic commendation from Harvey A. Gordon, national camp engineer of the Boy Scouts of America, who constructed the great Jamboree Camp at Washington this last sum- mer having 27,00O scouts, George c. Ham, head of the Naugatuck Water company and the late Robert Cairns, city engineer.
