"The coal is shipped to the Michigan Centrai depot where tring it is transferred to our own electric Today train which hauls it to our huge coal basin next to the power plant. This basin is of concrete and is provided with flood gates, so that Two Stage Acts, in case of fire, the whole basin canAGood Picture, be flooded. A sample of every ship- ment of coal is taken over to the A Charlie Chase Come engineering laboratories and anal- and yzed. The coal must not exceed 10 per cent in ash or 1 1-4 per cent Usual Michigan Short Reel in sulphur. If the sample does- Better Come! not meet these specifications, the entire shipment is sent back. "From the basin the coal is hoist- ed by a ton and a half crane and 'V is dumped into the huge furnaces. The coal is converted into steam and is sent out through tunnels to radiators in the different buildings. Three and .one-half miles of tun- nels, containing both high and low pressure lines, are used. "The radiators in each building, and there are more than 5,000 radi- ators now in use, are all thermo- statically controlled by air pressure furnished by the power plant," Mr. Pardon asserted. "Such a vast system requires much repair and many men to look after it. Since the new Worn- en's building, Newberry hall and five houses on Forest Avenue were added to the system, our boilers are working over time. Hence the need for a new boiler," he con- cluded. WASHINGTON DOCUMENTS INCLUDED IN DISPLAY AT CLEMENTS LIBRARY " An incomparable and priceless, collection of Washington documents found in the recent discovery of Clinton papers in England, are on display and will remain indefinite- ly at William L. Clements Library, as part of the personal collectionl of Mr. Clements. Most of these papers were found with the Clinton papers, recovered recently after being lost since the Revolutionary War. These docu- ments and personal letters were in- tercepted by the British general and stored away with his other papers, recently unearthed in the cellar of his mother's home in Eng- land. Up to that time, the Brit- ish side of the surrender at York- town and the reason for the splitI Executive Position Achieved By Peare After serving as secretary and treasurer of the Maqua Company, a large Schenectady printing con- cern, since 1926, Robert S. Peare, '22, has just been promoted to the presidency of the company by the Board of Directors at their Feb- ruary meeting, it was announced yesterday. While approving his new post, the board also announc- ed that he would retain his posi- tion as secretary-treasurer in ad- dition. Peare, while at the University, won his letter in basketball and was a member of the Student Council. In the fall of 1922, im- mediately after his graduation, he was employed by the General Elec- tric Company in their Business training course. He is a native of Bellmore, Ind. of the British troops by Burgoyne and Howe had remained a mystery.. The most interesting piece in the display is a letter from General Cornwallis to General Clinton an- nouncing the surrender at York- town and describing the battle in' detail. Other correspondence in- cludes that between General Wash- ington and Nathaniel Greene, andl several personal family letters, written by General Washington and Martha Washington, which1 were intercepted in the course of the war.. The original papers telling of the death of Washington and describ- ing the funeral, and a biography of the general in which first the cher- ry tree story, are included in the display. An expense account of the army, written on 98 pages of foals- cap and bound in the original skins, is an interesting addition. One of the more human personal letters is a note from Washington to his dentist requesting that he send a scraper and pincers so that he could clean his teeth and fix a wire on them. His personal seal is pre- served on the back of one of the envelopes on display.
