Thorough spring cleaning of the

claimed the entire attention of E.
C. Pardon and his staff of Buildings'
and Grounds operatives, with the
addition of an auxiliary crew of
students, remaining in Ann Arbor
dring Easter vacation, yesterday.
Foremost among the tasks of
the departnent was cleaning away
the debris of the winter, raking the
campus lawns, and where lawns
had been killed by lack' of sunshine
or othercauses, steps were taken to
plant new grass plots.
Around Alumni Memorial hall,
where trees had shaded and killed
grass, old earth was dug up to the
depth' of a foot or more, and new
soil spread. Trees were trimmed to
allow as much sunshine as possible
to penetrate. Other barren spots
on the campus were treated in a
similar manner.
Some 200 pounds or more of grass
seed has already been spread on
the campus, with more to follow.
Fertilizer has been purchased in
huge quantities, and a large amount
scattered. One lot of ten tons and
another of five tons were delivered
for use on the campus this spring.
Beginning this week, Pardon and.
his aides will concentrate en land-

ing, which is scheduled for formal.
opening May 4. Beds are being
prepared, and blank earth being
drawn to the grounds for filling.
Shrubs have been ordered, and
should be received within a few'
days, for immediate setting. A gen-
eral clean-up of. the grounds is
being carried on now.
All during last week the window-
washing squads were at work on
the panes of campus buildings,
particularly the museum, new
medical building, and engineering
shops, the crew cleaning several
thousand windows during the week.l
Weather prohibited a large quan-
tity of painting which Mr. Pardon
hoped to have done before the re-
opening of classes.

BACK in 1921, seventy-odd bil-
lions of cubic feet of manufac-
tured gas met Industry's needs.
Those were the days when Industry
was just learning "if it's done with
heat, you can do it better with qas."
Last year Industry used a hundred
and forty-seven billion cubic feet.
Something more than double 1921's
record!
This gain wasn't philanthropy. In-
dustry is hard boiled. Gas heat
produces!
Today there are innumerable uses for
gas heat in industry. From bread-bak-

ing to heat-treating steel; from glass--
blowing to pottery firing. And new
uses are being developed every day.
Gas heat is economical; profitable.
It is flexible; capable of accurate
control and accurate regulation.
Above all, it is dependable, not sub-
ject to break-down or interruptions.
Whatever the heating roblem,
gas heat gives the most for every
fuel dollar.
There is a book, "Industrial-Gas
Heat," which tells about gas in In
dustry. 'You will- find it interesting
