The doctor's beard, which is of the moustache-goatee variety and ff a pristine whiteness, created no little comment at the association Meeting. Some of the learned Members of the group dropped their dignity long enough to make fcets that Dr. Morin would shave the beard before commencement. It seems that, as chief of staff ftneritas, he must lead the faculty procession! ' - It seems to this reporter that lie beard lends a certain glamour to a professional man. We hope the doctor's courage stands up and that his colleagues lose their bets.

Again it's the "read" and the "blye" striving for the honor Spring came a little early this year. March 20 at 11.14 a.m., to be official. That's the way the vernal equinox computers have it figured-- a winter morning, a, spring afternoon. • One thing's for sure: A lot of people can stop quibbling about whether the weather (winter, that is) was (or was not) mild (or rough). The U.S. Weather Bureau has pegged it in cold (or not so cold) statistics. Fact is. It was warmer than usual by the Bureau's standards. The mean temperature for Illinois was not so mean; to be exact as a mean can be, it was -31 degrees or 4 degrees higher than the 27-degree normal. Judging, on the other hand, by the Bureau's report on persippa--, purcipa--, er uhhh, snow, rain, sleet and hall, this winter was drier by two inches. Even so, if it hadn't dried up or soaked in once in a while, Illinois would still be burled under 8 inches of snow, rain, sle--, PRECIPITATION. Among those applau ding spring's arrival are the railroads. According to the Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference, which represents railroads in Seventeen eastern states, the Iron Horse can heave a $13,000,000 sigh of relief. That's about what came out of rail receipts to keep or sweep ice and snow from the tracks. The public's bill was even bigger: ran to about $30,000,000 Just tor keeping state maintained high* ways in those same states clear for the railroads' heavy trucking competitors, and for motorists. Winter's departure, as a matter of. fact, probably saddened only a few citizens; overshoe manufacturers and the like.

The appalling number «f deaths and injuries resulting from motoring accidents in recent year* has provoked this state to take action of a new and decisive type. Since the first of July, applicants tor driver's licenses ana renewals have been required to have their eyesight tested on a complex in-! strument which measures 12 visual skills, including muscular balance, acuity at near and far distances, and depth perception. The instrument makes it impossible for drivers with poor vision to slip by, by memorizing the letters that they must read--a trick sometimes played with conventional charts. Those who fail the tests are advised to consult an eyesight special* 1st, and many of them will undoubtedly be enabled to pass by professional eye-care. Good vision has long been recognized as a major factor In accident prevention, and thousands of hours have been spent in attempts to establish proper standards for motorists. But the results were always inconclusive, because too much of the element of personal opinion was involved. Under the new system, however, definite statistics on 1,300,- 000 drivers will be obtained by next July 1, and it will be possible to Judge accurately which visual errors contribute most to accidents and which visual skills are most essential to highway safety. show is announced for the twelfth annual all-breed exhibit of the International Kennel club set for March 29 and 30 at the International Amphitheatre.
