...military preparedness. This aid is essential, for the Germans are not through with attempting to sink transports. If the present program or military efficiency is to be carried out, these university adjuncts must be kept in working condition.

Although this will hardly be obtained through economizing heat, since college buildings are kept warm a definite part of the day under any circumstances, yet it can be secured by utilizing less artificial light. According to the proposed idea, everybody would rise one hour earlier, and therefore go to bed an hour earlier, for we do not believe anyone will...
