Dry Air Called
Forerunner Of
Common Cold.
And Mr. Average Student
Has At Least Two Such
Illnesses Every Year
By CHARLES B. BROWNSON
"Dry air in over-heated homes is
believed by medical science to be
largely responsible for the lowering
of general vitality and irritation of
the mucous membrane of the throat,
which leads to the common cold,"
according to Dr. Warren E. Forsythe,
director of the University Health
Service.
According to campus medical sta-
tistics, one out of overy two students
visits the Health Service for the
treatment of a cold sometime during
[the year, and of this group the
average student has at least two
colds before the year is over. In other
words it amounts to the Health Serv-
ice diagnosing an upper respiratory
infection for every person on the
campus, every year if averages are
taken.
Conditioning Units Outlined
In discussing these respiratory ail-
ments from an engineering view-
point yesterday, Col. Henry W. Mil-
ler, head of the department of me-
chanical and engineering drawing,
outliped the present units obtainable
for the conditioning of air in homes.
"There is no commercial device on
the market today in the medium
price rance which can be said to be
a complete air conditioning unit, de-
spite manufacturer's claims," he
commented.
The complete air conditioning unit,
which would so greatly increase the
efficiency and health of the indivi-
dual in the home, must heat the air
in winter and cool it in summer. It
must supply humidity when the
weather is dry and withdraw it from
circulation when summer makes the
living conditions uncomfortable. To
be really efficient there should be a
provision made for washing the dust
particles from the air.
New Units Displayed
Colonel Miller recently attended
the annual Power Show in New York,
where the newest developments in
air conditioning units were displayed.
A complete unit which fulfills allthe
requirements was displayed but, as
Colonel Miller commented, the prices
are so exhorbitant as to make imme-
diate installation in homes a finan-
cial impossibility for the majority of
owners.
The history of the newest air con-
ditioning unit dates from the days
when a thermostatic control was first
established for the hand-stoked fur-
nace. The next step was the intro-
duction of humidity control in a
crude form with an attempt to re-
move the dust from the air by wash-
ing it. It became apparent that steam
and vapor heat were unsatisfactory
for air conditioning at this stage so
partment, on "The Psychology of Re-
ligion." The discussion class led by
Mr. Lewis will meet at 8:15 p. m. and
the topic for discussion will be, "St.
Augustine."

Walrus Exhibit In Iowa
Museum Badly Damaged
IOWA CITY, Feb. 17. - Carrying
away a piece of walrus skin and a
piece of tusk, vandals, believed to be
adults, seriously marred the Univer-
sity of Iowa museum exhibit of twol
walruses brought back from the Arc-
tic regions by Admiral Robert E.
Peary in 1909. The two speciniens se-
cured by Peary on this Polar expedi-
tion are of an almost extinct type
and were in very good condition,
constituting valuable exhibits, ac-
cording to officials of the museum.
further developments concerned
forced air in this type of system. The
introduction of oil heating units
making possible more automatic con-
trol was the final step in wide-spread
commercial development.
The difficulty in producing a com-
plete unit to sell at reasonable price
lies in the solution of the problem of
cooling the air and removing exces-
sive moisture under summer condi-
tions. The air spray cannot remove
moisture, although it does cool the
air, because the dew point of ordi-
nary temperaturesif°56 degrees. This
low a temperature must be reached
to condense the moisture from the
air, yet city water which is used in
the sprays, seldom reaches tempera-
tures below 60 degrees.
Pullman companies and theatres
have tried electric refrigeration, dry
ice, and natural ice. rAll are prohibi-
tive in cost except the natural ice
method which is ncol readily adap-
tible to home use. A new unit de-
veloped by an electric corporation for
office is installed like a new radio in
an attractive cabinet. It draws in
outside air, washes it, humidifies it
and forces it into the room heated
to exactly the correct temperature.
This, unfortunately is so expensive
as to be available for-de luxe installa-
tions only.
Because there are no units avail-
able to fulfill the public need, Col-
onel Miller explained substitutes
which might be utilized. "The first
important principle," he explained,
"is to keep the air in motion, com-
monly possible with the electric fan."

'Better Times' Probe Is
Pushed In Attempt To
Gain Economic Relief
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17-.(IP-A
New York banker, a labor leader and
the head of a farmers' organization
were called upon today to outline
their remedies for American econo-
mic troubles.
These men-Thomas W. Lamont,
John L. Lewis, president of the Unit-
ed Mine Workers, and L. J. Taber,
national master of the Grange-were
witnesses in the Senate finance com-
mittee's "Better Times" investiga-
tion.
The committee has summoned 250
national leaders to give their views
on restoring industry and agriculture
so that President-elect Roosevelt may
have ample information for the basis
of an anti-depression drive.
Men prominent in many fields
have appeared all week. Among those
who presented programs Thursday
was E. D. Duffield, president of the
Prudential Life Insurance Co.. who
appealed for sound currency ,nd re-
stored public confidence. He also
urged that Congress take no action
that would impair the validity of
mortgage contracts and championed
a balanced budget.

Wilker Editorial Shows Trend
in Child Development Studieqs

By JAMES L. BAUCHAT
Justifying the need for redirec-
tion in the school program, Dr. Mar-
guerite Wilker, associate professor of
education, shows in a editorial in the
current issue of the School of Edu-
cation Bulletin how the trend toward
centering the studies around the
child is valuable in developing the
character of the child.
"With information obtained from
the parent during an interview," says
Professor Wilker, "departures from
the traditional academic curriculum
have been made in an attempt to
provide influences conducive to a
well-rounded development. Social
needs have been recognized in chil-
dren and emotional stability has be-
come a goal to be achieved in many
practical situations of the day.
Teacher A Helper
"The adult, the teacher, always
remains a helper, encouraging the
child when he nees it in the de-
velopment of special skills and atti-
tudes, emotional control, and social
expansion as well as in knowledge.
Professor Wilker points out that
as much thought is given to teach-
ing the children desirable behavior
in an eating situation as is given to
the teaching of music or good wood-
shop behavior.
To conclude her article the edu-
cator mentions the importance of
discussion with the parents in en-
deavor to make the school child and
the home child one.
A problem which is before many
school administrators is discussed by
Dr. Wray H. Congdon, assistant di-
rector of the bureau of cooperation
with educational institutions, who
writes on "The Problem of Oversized
Class Sections." Dr. Congdon has
made a study of the classes in many
of the high schools of the state and
from his observation he notes that
"so long as the concomitant learn-
ings are something about which in-
telligent teachers feel concern, over-
size classes are a menace to the most
desirable educational outcomes."
"Measurements of these educa-'

tional outcomes," Professor Congdon
claims, "are in most cases confined
entirely to the acquisition of factual
matter. Character development, emo-
tional control, physical efficiency,
habits of study, development of in-
tellectual powers, attitudes. apprecia-
tions, standards of judgment, and
other concomitant learnings are too
readily ignored."
The educator has provided a ques-
tionnaire which the school adminis-
trator is to fill out as a check list
of the factors compensating for over-
sized class sections in the line of ad-
ministrative and instructional ability
equipment.
Dr. O. W. Stephenson, of the de-
partment of social studies, compares
the teaching methods, buildings, fur-
nishings and equipment generally of
the American schools with those of
the schools in southern Europe. He
has found that in respect to class-
room procedures certain activities are
engaged in which produce more last-
ing results than are obtained on this
side of the Atlantic. In the matter of
buildings, furnishings and equip-
ment he has found that the schools
there suffer by comparison with
ours.
Interiors Base
"The interior of one of the schools
in Naples is typical of many. Its
entrance is reached by way of the
'last turning at the bottom of the
alley.' The wiring and steam pipes
are all exposed, there are no bul-
letin boards, blackboard space is very
small, and in this particular school
there are no pictures 'on the wall
other than those of Benito Musso-
lini. The seats are only four inches
lower than the tops of the desks,
the pupil must either sit up straight
or hump over his task in a cramped
and uncomfortable position."
The remainder of the buletin is
devoted to faculty news, lists of re-
cent master's theses and new books,
and notes on the University Labora-
tory School.
