The final number id the course is
booked for Saturday, March 4th.,

The Juniors Entertained,
In spite of the close proximity of
examination week, nearly the whole
Junior class attended the Liquid Air
Lecture and Smoker tendered by
Prof. Osmond last Saturday evening.
The smoker part of the program was
a great success but owing to the de
lay in shipment, etc., the Liquid air
failed to materialize and “Hot air”
had to be substituted. Part of the
evening was taken up by Prof. Os
mond with remarks on the meth
ods of manufacturing liquid air. Ex
periences, jokes, wise and other
wise, made the remainder of the
evening very entertaining.
