Such a situation actually came about in January two years ago, with a resulting mild epidemic of grippe, which overflowed the Infirmary and deprived almost thirty more sick students from receiving hospital care. In view of this danger, authorities at the Hygiene Building urge any ailing student, even if he has only a bad common cold, to remain at home until he feels better. Particularly for those traveling long distances, such infections can easily become serious en route to Cambridge. Students should realize that the responsibility for keeping well rests with them and not with their physicians. If they will...
...unreal colors and the patterns of curving rock strata have been used by him as the basis for powerful and intricate designs. The Death Valley and Otowi landscapes are done in a swirling, rhythmic manner with different tones of brown which emphasize the bare aridness of the scene.

Insertion of the instrument is easy: the physician anesthetizes the patient's throat, grasps the gastroscope in both hands like a billiard cue, pokes the rubber end gently but firmly down the patient's throat and esophagus into his stomach...
Moreover, this questionnaire was not instigated by the police with a view towards possible increased revenue in the future. For compliance with the law merely involves getting a free permit from the Registrar of Motor Vehicles, issued on proof that a car is properly insured and that the operator has passed a license test similar to the one given by Massachusetts. Certainly sufficient insurance and a tested driver are desirable and necessary for any automobile driven on the teeming highways of the Commonwealth...
