...fault with the constructors of our recitation-rooms, particularly as they were most of them built long before ventilation was ever heard of. What I do want to suggest is that the College can, at a small expense, relieve those who suffer from draughts and those who suffer from close air, by introducing an invention which was used in some of the schools of Boston a few years ago (and is still, for all that the writer knows to the contrary), consisting of a board which fits into the window-frame, and is furnished with a large pipe covered with...
