Yale is considering the establish- ment of an electric lighting plant of its own. The college authorities have not taken definite action in the matter as yet. It is expected, however, to have plans made and the plant in operation by next term. The university maintains a small lighting plant of its own at the pres- ent time. It is located in the base- ment of the dining hall. There is a sufficient amount of electricity from this to supply the dining hall, Wool- vy and Woodbridge halls. 5 Two suggestions have been made in regard to such a plant. One is to en- large the one now exisiting in the dining hall building. The other is to install generators in the baking plant of the coliege which is in the rear of Peabody museum in High street. To make either would cost a big sum of money, so that the college has decided to thoroughly investigate | both ways in order to determine which !is the better. It is probable it will finally be decided to eniarge the heat- |ing plant. It is located mear most of the college buildings and the expense for wiring would be greatly lessened. Estimates on the cost of parts of the work have been made. With an electric plant of its own the college could greatly improve many of its dormitories and building. The major- ity of them are now lighted with gas. While everyone of them would not be installed with electricity the newer buildings would have it. Books for State Library. George S. Godard, state librarian, has received the first of the fifteen volumes of “Notes on Hlinois Reports,” which he has ordered from the pub- lishers in Chicago.

Oil is cheaper than coal; it is lighter and easier to andle, and gives an intense heat. Provided you have the t stove, oil is more economical, cleaner and less trouble. Have you scen the New Per, ©il Cook-stove ‘The accompanying illustration gives you only a rough idea of its appearance. You really can’t appreciate it until you either use it yourself, or talk to someone who has used it. It does that a coal range will do—except heat the room. The New Perfection Oil k- Stove will do anything, from heating a kettle of water to cooking & course dinner, but it won't heat a room. It doesn’t “smell,” it doesn’t smoke. It can’t get out of order. Light it and it is ready. Turn it down and it is out. Only a woman who knows the trouble of carrying coal and cooking in a hot kitchen can appreciate what it means to bhave a clean, perfect stove that will cook anything, boil, bake or roast, and yet won’t heat the kitchen. How is it done? The flame is controlled in tur- uoise-blue nn-:el :hlmn:y-. and zxrec' ted against the bottom of pot, pan, kettle or..wen, and only there. he flame operates exactly where itis needed —and nowhere else.
