700 FRESHMEN GET FREE REIN AT CHICAGO U. Innovation in Education Launched by Youthful President. By United Prntt CHICAGO, Sept. 24.—More than 700 specially selected “smartest freshmen” were ordered to meet today to hear President Robert Maynard Hutchins outline the new system of education at Chicago university. And the command to appear was, It was said, about the only “order’* these "smartest freshmen” are likely to receive during the first year of their college careers. Once this meeting is over and the youths have been told what they are to do, the rest will be almost entirely up to them, according to the plan which Hutchins is introducing to the university. Thereafter they will go to class about when they feel like it, read the books that interest them, confei with professors when they like, and, in fact, if they wish to do so, go about the task of becoming educated In a manner so revolutionary as to appear to the uninitiated as being rather “free and easy." There is, of course, a “catch” in the scheme for the freshman who accepts the plan too literally. Under the new plan, the student who does not make an apparent advance in intellectual proficiency will receive no credits and no reward for whatever time he spends in college. “Millions to help get an education, but not one cent to force one” —that is, in short, the plan of the youthful president. The system is based primarily on fi theory that an intelligent, ambitious youth wants to be educated, and that it is unnecessary to try to force learning upon him if his thoughts run entirely to other things.

Keep Out Winters Blasts by Applying Insulation Freely
Thli U the third of t orfei of stories on preparation of the home for winter. WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—Even though a furnace is in excellent condition, the basement weather-tight and the heatipg unit working to the limit of its capacity, the house may still be cold. 1 This government engineers state, is due to p>oor insulation of the upper part of the house from cold. All houses should be well ventilated, even in winter, but this ventilation has nothing to do with the drafts of cold air which find their way into the house under loose windows and doors, through cracks in the roof and outside walls of the home. The only prevention against the inroad of this cold air is weatherproofing and insulating. A sure sign that cold air is coming in around windows is the movement of curtains on a windy day. Then It's time for weatherstripping. Oakum One Remedy A cheap way of doing this is to stuff calking oakum or other packing material around the frames. This is a satifactory method of keeping out the cold, but it has the disadvantage of making it impossible to raise the windows, and it is hard to remove when spring rolls around again. There are many kinds and grades of weatherstripping on the market now. Possibly the easiest for the ordinary house tenant to apply is the felt and rubber types. These • include narrow wooden strips with rubber or felt edges. Two other types are the patent cloth variety and the ordinary felt strip. Inspect Window Panes The same type of stripping may be used in preparing doors for winter. In this connection, it is sometimes well to tack the stripping around the bedroom doors, as these rooms are generally cooler than the rest of the house, due to more ventilation. This is also true of basement doors. Heat can be lost through windows —by cold air corning in, and by heat radiation through the window pane. To remedy this radiation storm windows are often built for winter use. If window panes themselves are

loose, a good coating of putty applied around their- edges can prevent much cold finding its way into the house. In an old house there isn’t much can be done with walls that let in cold, unless they are finished over again. In building anew home, however, the owner should take special care to see that the contractor gets a good thick insulating material to make the walls tight. There is a material made of cattle hair stitched between sheets of abestos paper, and a quilted product which is efficient and inexpensive. Jn treating an old wall, it is necessary to nail furring strips over the old plaster upon which new lath and plaster, insulating board or insulating material and wall board is applied. The attic is the meeting place of the warm air ascending up through the house and the cold air coming in through the roof.
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
For this reason, the attic should be well insulated against the cold coming in and the heat getting out. Some materials have been developed recently which are excellent for this purpose. They are ’made in blanket form of soft, flexible materials such as felt, wool, hair and fiber. This can be stretched and tucked between studs, floor joists and rafters. Other material comes in the form of sheets to be used in nailing over joists. Insulation of the attic not only keeps much cold out in winter, but also prevents much of the heat of a boiling summer’s sun from entering. Several types of shingles have been put on the market which act as insulation against cold and heat entering the attic. In repairing the upper parts of the house for winter, it is well to make a final examination of the gutters and downspouts.

EXCESS acid is the common cause of indigestion. It results in pain and sourness about two hours after eating. It is responsible for most of the everyday ailments that people suffer; sick headache, sluggishness, nausea, biliousness, gas on the stomach, etc. The quick corrective is an alkali which will neutralize the acid. The best corrective knowh to medical science is Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia. It has remained standard with physicians in the 50 years since Its invention. One spoonful of Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia neutralizes instantly many times its volume in acid. It is harmless and tasteless and its action is quick.
