appreciate more than i can say your sending the parcel but mother dear i am afraid my chances of receiving it are very small as soon as i re ceived your letter i wrote to the postmaster in london to ask if he could locate it and forward to me this is the only chance i have of ever getting it as if it goes to france it will be divided amongst the boys it is the unwritten law out there that any

evening of last week a combined meeting of the civil and mechanical engineering societies was held in the lecture room of williams hall president g m levy of the mechanical so ciety had charge of the meeting and after a few remarks by prof de schweinitz relating to the busi ness transacted by the american mechanical engineering society meeting held in new york last week he called on f l benscoter 17 who spoke on mechanical re frigeration in part he said in its broader sense refrigeration may be defined as the process of cooling or since cold is but the absence of heat re frigeration is in reality the extrac tion of heat the speaker spoke more from the practical sidle of the question than of the theoretical stating that very little experi mental data is available at present ' ' there are two types of mechanical refrigeration — the absorption and compression the absorption system uses ammonia as its most common chem ical there is no difficulty in set ting up an equation for an absorp tion machine according to the ther modynamic laws but these equa tions do not hold in actual practice the compression system is by far the more common system being used in small plants the advan tages of this system are : lower cost more compact more simple and easier to set up ; with the disadvan tages of higher cost of operating engines harder to keep tempera ture and has a limited capacity the speaker then referred to nu merous blackboard sketches first the ammonia cycle was traced from the generator to the analyzer to the rectifier then to the condensers to the cooler and finally to the ab sorber the functions of the weak liquor cooler and exchanger were also explained lastly the speaker explained the two systems of artificial ice making — one the can system and the other the plate system in the can sys tem the cakes of ice are made in separate molds and in the plate system a large piece is made which is later cut into the required sizes the talk was both instructive and interesting president levy then called upon the speaker of the evening profes sor f p mckibben head of the department of civil engineering professor mckibben spoke briefly of the benefits derived from hold ing joint society meetings and ex pressed a desire that more would be held in the future the speaker then took up the subject of the hill-to-hill bridge in 1732 a post road was estab lished between philadelphia and bethlehem terminating at the crown inn which stood on the present site of union station the passengers were then taken across the river in a small ferry which means of travel continued until 1794 just previous to 1790 some talk arose over the question of building a bridge after the com mittee which consisted of a church continued on fifth page of october as

more men out for the team this year than any previous year in the history of the college and a large proportion of the candi dates w r ere men with considerable basketball experience and ability for this reason it has been rather difficult to select the men best suited for the positions and it is almost certain that various changes will be made during the early part of the season before the final make up of the varsity can be selected although the team has shown an abundance of speed clever passing and goal-shooting in practice the game with new york university will give coach geary an oppor
