Just as your telephone saves time ashore, so it now saves countless hours for yachtsmen off-shore. They need not put into port to call home or office, when Western Electric's radio telephone is aboard. In areas served by land stations, on both Atlantic and Pacific coasts, they can be connected with other telephone subscribers just as they can at home. Sturdy and dependable, the sea-going telephone is one of the more recent additions to Western Electric's large family of sound-transmis- sion products. Like all the others, it is an outgrowth of 55 years' of experience as manufacturer for the Bell System.

The reception was sponsored by the Student Council, the Women's Self- Government Association, and the board of managers and women's activities com- mittee of Willard Straight Hall. The stu- dent members of these organizations introduced the guests through the re- ceiving line, served refreshments, and generally acted as gracious and efficient hosts and hostesses. Its importance may be judged by the fact that the evening was unanimously voted by the WSGA Council as not to count as a "night out" for undergraduate women who attended. The regular Sunday afternoon program of the Radio Guild preceding Founder's Day was a dramatization of Ezra Cor- nell's life, ending with a salute from the five continents represented by students at the University. A hitherto unpublished letter written by the Founder May 2.6,1872., to the Rev. William M. Cornell, a distant relative, was unearthed on Founder's Day. In it he said, humorously, "I believe you are the first Presbyterian minister who has not consigned us to purgatory for our infidelity ... or perchance you may be sliding down the same declivity to perdition that we are. I should be sorry to see the whole family of Cornells on the broad road to ruin." The letter continues, in part: You enquire if we have any provision by which a young man from Boston can be received into Cornell University free of charge. I answer no. I purposely avoided all provisions that should make THE FOUNDER'S STATUE IN THE SNOW Cornell University a charity school. At JANUARY -2.O, 1938

Since then, nothing has ever been found to equal this unique and nat^ it is this old Southern style of seasoning tobacco that gives Blue Boar its distinguished chiiracter^ For it imparts to Blue Boar's choice tobaccos a fragrant, mellow taste that is carefully retained by skilful hand-blending and re-blending. If you want a cool, slow-burning smoke of incom- parable flavor, try Blue Boar. The first whiff will tell you why this distinctive tobacco has been the choice of connoisseurs, decade after decade.
