NEW CHANGES IN GYM SYSTEM Cries of Joy Now Heard Instead of Frowns of Old Changes, in which students take e.e ercise best suitedl to their needs have been innovated by3 D)irector Crawfor-I in the Gym classes of the University. Under the 01(1 systeml all were giveni the same monotonous routine of cali. thenics. Classes wvere miet with a re luctance and dodged whenever it was possible to do so. Absences are still turnedl in for those who fail to attend regularly, but the.e are few and far between b)ecatuse stu dents go to the gym at their regula: hour without any hesitancy. No set rules are insistedl upon by the director. All that he asks of the m'n in that they take some formt of exe cise which they like b)est. Those wh.> like b)asketb)all pick up teams and have a regular game. In another p)art of the gym sonme may be lifting the bars while in another corner the wveights are heard, as energetic athletes pull them with a vigor. A few years ago sullenness wvas thec donminent aspect in the gym classer. Now happy cries and an atmosphere~ of a good time pervades the wvhol I lmitlding.

Gentlemen: In the past twenty years I have been a consistent smoker. I was always anxious to smoke a pipe; but no mat ter how often I tried, I soon changed my mind. I have tried all kinds of pipe tobacco, but not once was I satis fied with the taste of any of them until just recently I gave my pipe another trial. It was my luck to choose Edgeworth this time, with the results that I am still using it and will continue to do so. I only hope that you will continue to give that same mild, high-grade qual ity in the future. I have started not less than sixteen men to start or give Edgeworth a trial, and they are still using that same unequaled non-biting tobacco to this lay. I can recommend Edger worth tobacco to anybody who en joys a cool non-biting brand of good tobacco; and as long as I enjoy same, you can rest assured that I am going to be a good ad., and many a pipe smoker will be asked to give it a fair trial, and they themselves can act as j:clges. I always give praise where praise is due. After I was convinced of the wonderful quality of Edgeworth I could not help but tell you people the same as I have been telling and will in the future tell others. Hoping that you will continue with the same quality in Edgeworth, I am Very truly yours, (Sigiavd) Joseph J.
