SUSPECTED HONEY
DID NOT HURT HIM
Prof. Jackson, Food Chemist Hasn't Much Faith in "Poison Squads"
Some time ago, several pounds of honey were sent in to the chemistry department by persons who had become sick upon eating it, to be analyzed. Prof. L. H. Jackson, who has charge of the chemistry of foods, took home a quantity of this honey and experimented with it by making a meal of this same honey with bread. No ill effects came of the experiment.
"This illustrated," said Professor Jackson, "that the same adulterant in foods does not have the same effect on any two people. Some people might be poisoned by coal tar dye, while others might grow fat on the same substance."
At some of the eastern universities, "poison squads" consisting of students who have volunteered themselves to be experimented with are maintained. They are given food, scientifically adulterated with preservatives prohibited by the federal pure food laws, and the results noted. Students on these squares are said to prefer this food which is furnished them free of charge by the state that then given them at some of the boarding clubs.
Professor Jackson states that a poison squad here in the University would be impracticable, on account of the lack of funds for carrying out the experiments, and the poor and varying results that would be obtained.
Badgers Refuse to Row
Badgers Refuse to Row.
Wisconsin has refused a challenge to row Annapolis this season. The reason given is that the trip to Annapolis would weaken the crew and spill its chance to make a showing on the Hudson, where Wisconsin will row in a regatta, shortly after the date named in the navy's challenge.

Some of the prettiest styles yet for Easter have just come from the firms who make some of the finest White Shoes in America for women.
Every one of them is of fine Buckskin or canvas. Every one has the high toe, and street soles--some have Cuban and some the new low heels. You will wonder that White Shoes can be made to look so nice at the prices we ask for them.
