Yale School of Law Increases Efficiency by Raising Standards
Most Capable Men Admitted Under New Plan; Tuition Is Increased
The Yale School of Law has vote to restrict its enrollment, increase its entrance requirements to such an extent that applications will be selected on a competitive basis, and increase its tuition, in a program designed to prepare students for the highest type of student, and giving the highest type of instruction.
This policy will go into effect with the opening of the next school year in September, at which time it is believed the University will be prepared to announce plans for the Law School buildings to be created by a gift from the trustees of the estate of John W. Sterling, of New York City.
The tuition is to be raised from $250 to $300. It is expected that the loan and scholarship funds will be increased to aid deserving students, particularly those from the South and West.
President James Rowland Angell, in announcing the Law School's new regulations, said: "The present program means a departure from the traditional idea of American law schools, which is some kind of 'mass' school that works the adoption of a policy of giving a better kind of education to those most capable."
The Yale School of Law introduced what are known as "Honors Courts" this fail. Under this plan the better men in the third year are allowed to do independent work, free from regular routine of the classroom.
Burned-Out Fire Brick Replaced by New Method
Furnace Repair Speeded
Repair on burned out furnaces, according to H. H. Ball, superintendent of buildings and grounds, can be cut down 75 per cent by a process which employs the use of an agent of the Ulrich Supply Company in the power plant at the University
With the use of the Quigley refractory gun the demonstrator shoots a mixture of old fire brick and hymeterte cement against the walls where the brick is burned out. This mixture is thrown with such force that compressed air is pressed air is used to force the paste-like mixture from the gun.
Two men with this gun can repair a furnace wall within two or three hours, where it used to take three or four men from four to five days using the old method of replacing the burned out bricks with new ones.

Knots Are Advantageous
Apple Trees Propogate Readily When Searred
(Science Service)
Baltimore, Feb. 8—That frequently observed knotty, scarce appearance of the twigs and branches of apple trees does not necessarily mean the trees are diseased. It may indicate an advantage over trees with clean
The appearance is often due to burk- knots which have been confused with aerial tumors of "hairy root" crown
gall, but which are "root buds" or rudimentary stemborn roots. Twigs bearing these knots when planted as hedges were used in the United States. No American pomonologist had advanced this theory until Charles F. Swingle of the bureau of plant industry at Washington, demonstrated it in a series of studies and experi-
According to Mr. Swingle, it was known in England more than a hundred years ago that some varieties of apple trees with a certain class of knots propagated readily from cuttings, and he began to conduct a conversation with R. G. Halton, the English pomologist, who visited this country two years ago.
Mr. Swingle examined some five hundred varieties of apple trees in the Arlington oakland near Washington. Nearly half of this number showed the presence of the burr-knot. It was found to be widespread and appeared on one tree of a given variety, they were found on all mature trees.

"The northern light" which so many people believed they observed on a recently Saturday night were only reflections of the lights of Lawrence upon falling ice particles, not the sun's rays. A member of the department of astronomy.
Professor Alter's attention was brought to the strange and unusual phenomenon by phone calls from numerous persons seeking the cause for the occurrence. He made a test with a strong light and was able to obtain his own "northern light." One of these beams of light had the strange habit of appearing and disappearing, which was found to be caused by the big electric sign of the Kansas Electric Power Company.
True northern lights, Aurora Borealis, occur only rarely in this latitude. A clear sky is essential as they appear at great height in the sky. They are observed very freely and as far south as 45 degrees but are seen farther south only at rare intervals.

What a dog's life some pipes lead!
POOR OLD PIPE! Looks as though he's gone to the dogs! He was a good pipe, too. The pick of hundreds. Carefully, ceremoniously selected... But like many another, he's never had a chance. He's been abused... neglected ... treated like a dog!
Strange, isn't it, how a man will spend days selecting a pipe and yet, never give a minute's thought to his tobacco—when tobacco is really the thing that makes or ruins a pipe?
A good pipe deserves good tobacco.
Deserves Granger Rough Cut! For no other tobacco is so certain to bring out the best that's in a pipe. No other tobacco so sweetens a pipe or pipes it so sweet...
Being rough cut, too, its large flakes burn slow and smoke cool. Cool . . spicy . . .mild . . .and mellow! Granger Rough Cut brings joy into the life of any pipe. It brings perfect pipe satisfaction into the life of any pipe smoker.
