Yoran’s Shoe Store The Store That Sells Good Shoes GOAL FOR UNIVERSITY I hut Seattle coai can not compete successfully with slab wood as fuel for the University boilers is shown con clusiveiy uy tiie tests recently complet ed ny the classes under Professor C. \\ . Converse. One pound of coal evaporated o.5i pounds ot water at 212 degrees, vvlnle one pound of wood evaporated 6.06. i he coal cost several times as much per pound as the wood, so tha; the balance was badly against it. At this rate with coal it would cost 99 1-9 cults to evaporate 11)00 pounds of wa ter, while with wood the cost would be only 23.7 cents. the boilers, said Air. Converse, were not properly equipped to burn coal. By a considerable expense it would be pos sible to increase their economy for coal burning zo per cent, and possibly 50 per cent. However, even this would hardly make it as good fuel as slal w ood. Next year a test may be made for crude oil. One .objection to burning oil, said Air. Converse, is the fact that it is difficult to ne sure oi a steady supply, ,t being impossible at times to obtain oil. ’1 he Gamma Phi Betas had a most enjoyable party up the nrillrace on Alon day evening.
