A COLLEGE PROFESSOR—-augy-
wes ON LIFE INSURANCE.
S&S @ | aE
Professor GEORGE E. VINCENT, Yale, ’85, of the University of Chicago, recently
said °
‘““] believe that when we take an account of this century, and estimate the facts
which have taken so important a part in its development, that the principle of Life
Insurance and its remarkable extension in all departments of life, will be one of the
great facts noted by future historians.”
The Prudential has paid beneficiaries under its policies, to date over $42,700,000,
which is an evidence of the vast amount of good the Company is doing for ‘those sur-
rounded with its protection.

NEW WESTMINSTER SCHOOL.
SCHOOL NEWS,
WESTMINSTER.
Westminster School, which has been
known as one of the most successful
Yale preparatories, since its founding,
by 3 Wallan lo Cer, Yo oe ee
Dobbs Ferry, N. Y., twelve years ago,
will be removed to Simsbury, Conn.,
next Fall. The change will be made to
secure natural country environments,
larger athletic sports and a greater dis-
tance from New York City.
A stock company, composed largely
of the alumni of the School, was formed
some months ago, for the purchase of
land and the construction of buildings.
The site selected includes a hundred and
twenty acres of woodland and valleys
and a high level plateau of fifty acres,
overlooking the Farmington Valley.
The school buildings, planned by Messrs.
Trowbridge & Livingston of New York,
will be located on this plateau.
Mr. Cushing, who will continue as
Headmaster of the School, graduated
from Yale in 1872, and after teaching
classics for a year in the Hartford High
School, accepted the rectorship of the
Hopkins Grammar School, New Haven,
a position which he held until 1885, when
he went to Athens for two years’ study.
Returning to America, Mr. Cushing re-
ceived an appointment as instructor in
classics at Yale, but resigned the follow-
ing year and founded Westminster
School at its present home, Dobbs Ferry.
HOTCHKISS.
The candidates for battery positions
on the baseball team were called out on

One Case of Varioloid.
The last case of “newspaper small-
pox,” that of W. D. Brennan of St. Paul,
Minn., has been diagnosed as measles.
This leaves one man sick with what is
supposed to be varioloid, Rufus Parks,
Jt., 1901 S.; of Washington, D: C.: He
was taken ill Friday last at the Colony,
17 Hillhouse Ave., and as the doctors
were uncertain in their diagnosis, Mr.
Parks was isolated on the top floor of
the Colony. The disease is probably
varioloid. G. W. Perkins, the Scientific
School Freshman, the first suspected
case, which proved to be varioloid, has
iat and will soon return to Col-
ege.
On Monday morning in Chapel, Presi-
dent Hadley spoke to the students,
assuring them that every possible means
had been taken to prevent the spread
of the suspected disease, and advised
them to be vaccinated at once as a
precaution. He added that the College
authorities felt there was no danger,
and that the men had better go on with
their work unconcerned and not leave
the city.
