FRANKLIN. “A policy of Life Assurance is the cheapest and safest mode of making a certain provision for one’s family. — It is a strange anomaly that men should be careful to insure their houses, their furniture, their ships, their merchandise, and yet neglect to insure their lives—surely the most important of all to their families, and far more subject to loss.” Over 3,000,000 policies are now of The Prudential, which is a mighty argument as to the popularity of its policy contracts. in force on the books » » . , : $$ Write for information and sample policy. 4 » 4 4 » 4 3$ THE PRUDENTIAL . $2 INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA $2 HOME OFFICE, NEWARK, N.

Unless unforseen circumstances pre- vent, a joint track team composed of the members of the Yale and Harvard teams, will cross the Atlantic, shortly after the close of College, and meet a similar team representing Oxford and Cambridge in an international, inter- university athletic contest, on English soil, during the latter part of July. This announcement, which was made on Saturday of last week, came in the nature of a great surprise in University circles. The official challenge which is to come from the English universities has not yet been received, but on its arrival, which is expected daily, Yale and Har- vard will send a letter of acceptance. A cable message, received by Mr. C. H:; Shernil, ~Yale°80, “last "week: announcing that the challenge had been sent, represents one of the final steps in a series of negotiations which have. extended through several months. Last January, Captain T, R. Fisher, 2d, sug- gested the plan to Captain Roche of Harvard, who after consultation with the Athletic Advisory Committee, as- sured him of Harvard’s concurrence. Mr. Sherrill, while on a business trip to England in February, carried on the necessary. negotiations with the Oxford and Cambridge authorities, and | it was arranged that the English uni- versities should send a challenge to Yale and Harvard. Arrangements for the meet have been partially completed and a program agreed upon which will include the fol-. lowing events: one hundred yard dash, quarter-mile run, half-mile run, mile run, three mile run, one hundred and twenty yard hurdle race, throwing the sixteen pound hammer, running high jump and running broad jump. The power to select the men who will represent Yale and Harvard will rest with the two Captains, and it is probable that each University will be represented by two men in each event. The time and place of the contest. have not been definitely settled. om PP SE Pe Gift to Law School. The library of the Law School has received from the Hon. N. D. Sperry, member of Congress for the Second Connecticut District, “A History and Digest of International Arbitrations to which the United States has been a Party,’ by John Bassett Moore, Pro- fessor of International Law at Columbia University.

The records of the majority are com- plete and attested. A small minority have still neglected replies to requests for information, or have not completed their original report. For their own satisfaction, and for the sake of making the report absolutely complete, they are particularly requested to send facts on the first mail that can reach New Haven, Professional Schools.
