(Bridgeport Post.)
Henry C. Ney of Farmington has
set a good example to the state by
contributing 83.000 to the church
and community house fund for the
State College at Storrs. AccompenY-
ing his gift is this interesting or
presslon:
“I give $1.0m for tile Protestants;
$1.000 for the Catholics and 31.000
for the Jews.
“I should like to see a. tow
churches where there would be a
constant effort to stress easements
rather than (inferences. and to ex-
plode the mischievous perversiona
regarding the various faiths that idle
and irresponsible gossipers peddle
about."
Most of us Would join with Mr.
Ney'in a similar plan. At any rate
there is only one state university in
' Connecticut, and it is going to have
a. community church broad enough
to take in all faiths. excluding none
and offending none.

SOFI‘ DRINKS AND HARD
(Bridgeport Post.)
it is surprising to learn from the
spokesmah of the soft drink menu-
iaoturers of the United States that
prohibition hurt their business. Mon
people supposed that when the hard
drinks were cut off by law (in
theory at least) the soft drinks
would show an enormous increase
in consumption. We are new told
that on the‘eontrary the soft drink
business fell off 42 per cent immedi-
ately after the passage of the Vol-
stead law. although they are more
on the pick-up again.
Part of the explanation for this
may be found in the fact that‘not
every patron of the old fashioned
saloon lined up at the bar for the
purpose of drinking liquor. The
wise man began, to say "make mine
a-- ginger ale" after the second or
third round. an on the other side of
the bait—the dry side-it was an
unwritten law . that when "the
house" was invited to participate.
the bartender should select a soft
drink for himself if he took any-
thing at all. Often he was content
with merely ringing it up on the
cash register.
So when the saloons closed it was
any to see where the soft drink
people lost a lot of business. Inci-
dentally. may not the present in-
crease in their business be due to
the desire of people to‘ ameliorate
the harshness of the liquors which
find their way about through clan-
deatlne sources?
Ventilation is the process
which air in inclosed spaces
frequently changed.
At a temperature of 86 degrees
Fahrenheit and a. relative humidity
of 80 per cent you will begin to feel
uncomfortable. Xou will not be in-
clined to work. The temperature of
your body is raised and your heart
action is quifkcned. Under higher
temperature. headache. nausea.
vomiting and. prostration often re-

it is a combination of heat and
moisture which makes air intoler-
able. A man can stand without dis-
comfort :1 much higher temperature
in a. room if the air is dry.
In winter the heated air of build.
ings is usually. too dry. Many times
thereiative humidity in rooms is
often less 20 per cent. This dry air
is drier than thevalr in a. desert. The
relative humidity of the driest cli-
mate of this continent is seldom
less than 80 per cent. I
When the air entering our dwell-
ings from without is heated to an
oven temperature of 70 degrees
Fahrenheit and when no watery
vapor is added the capacity of this
air for absorbing moisture is in-
creased to such an. extent that it will
absorb from all moist articles.
This dry air will take moisture
fromthe skin. from the . mucous
membranes of the nose and mouth.
and from the respiratory tract. The
relative humidity of buildings in
winter time should be 50 per cent.

Drafts are dangerous to healthy
people only when they cause it chill-

persons. because of their feeble rc-

A draft may increase the tendency
to take cold or to contract pneu-
monia. When your body is hot there
is a large quantity of blood near the

The puzzle of animal sounds-divine
singing of birds. the varied noises of
insects and the bowling. barking andu
roaring of many mammals. has been
solved by Austin H. Clark. the dis-
tinguished geologist. of the Smithso.
nian Institution. Washington. D. C.
Dr. Clark, with brilliant logic
shows that all the scunds of the ani-
mal world can be classified into a
few fundamental categories and that
the basis of them all lies in the eter-
nal struggle for existence. the necep.
sity of continually outwitting ene-
mies in order to stay alive.
Poets find the singing of birds a
romantic thing. But Dr. Clark shows
enemies.
An old idea. was that the sounds
of animals were designed chiefly so
a means of attracting mates.
that the bird sills! only to 100! Ml ~

Riddle of Animal Sounds T...3......s..u..............
:rhe last two prise Winning essays
Clark rejects this idea. pointing out
that while the sounds are usually
made by the males. there is no evi-
dence that they attract the females.
Protecting Voice.
“Like the various colors with
which they are adorned. the simi-
larly varied voices of the mammals.
lrds, reptiles. fishes and insects are
rimarlly protective." Dr. Clark ears.
“By thelrcolors they deceive the
eyes of enemies. By the sounds they
make. they deceive or irritate the
ears of their enemies. The'nialee do
most of the sound-melting since they
must protect the female who is kept
occupied with the eggs or the young
ones. "
Dr. Clark places animal sounds
in four classes. He calls them the
"Keep away" sounds. the “Come to
me" sounds. the "Here I am" sounds
Dr. and the "Phi after you' sounds.
