son. Up TO this week there has been no falling
off in guests in the hotels. while the cottages
have been filed with visitors. and weekend
parties have been feature of the month. The
foliage attracted many the hunt runs proved
new and interesting feature, and the addition OF
several new and large cottages TO the circle OF
country residences proved Of influence IN
bringing guests to LenOx for the autumn
gayety Outdoor life has been the keynote OF
the late I4enOx season. Riding has become
vogue coaching a regular pastime walking a
healthful enjoyment hunt runs with the hounds
a diversion for the many horsemen and women.
and a spectacular incident semi-weekly. Auto
MODELLING has become Well established. For
years Lenox did everything it could TO discOur-
age automobiling. but desertions from the ranks
Of those who had opposed motoring and the IN
crease of machines in LenOx caused an abandon
ment Of the opposition, and now the tourist who
traverses all parts Of the hills over the well kept
roads In search of view points and recreation is
welcomed.

letics, spending S4 year. At Vassar and with the
Yale "co-ed' there is mention OF this expense at
all. In suppers the Smith and Vassar girls are
alike each spending Sl2 a year. In charity the
Smith girl spends 81 more year than the VassaF
girI-s3 for one4 and 50 for the other The Yale
coed is too busy TO mention this. In money
spent for music alone does the Vassar girl lead.
She spends $14 year for music, against 50 by the
Smith girl and s. by the Yale co-ed. On the other
hand. the Smith girl has TO have doctor a good
deai more often. possibly because her expense &C
count for social functions is larger. She pays
more for her furniture. her laundry and less for
her travelling and clothes than her sister at VassaE
Altogether the Smith girl manages to get away
with 1891 OF her paternal bank account each year.
the Vassar girl $3.50 and the hard working and
frugal Yale '1ons-haired grind only S52s
The average Smith girl spends less on necessities

spends $50 and the Smith girl $21 on board the Yale
man doles out $l62 and the Smith girl Sl65. The
account for books is SSS Yale and SIS for Smith

this is not altogether fair comparison, the Yale

man S472. OF the richer $s72. OF the richest
students sl,465
A curious and interesting comparison can be
made from these figures as 10 the proportion spent
by the richest necessities and pleasures
and that Of the poorest men. Taking students who
spent over 5000 yearly and men spending $500 and
under the figures show that the richest spent
50 per cent of their income necessities against
80 per cent by the poorest men; S6 per cent on
pleasure as against g. and per cent on tobacco and
wines respectively, against nothing. On the
other hand. the poorest men at Yale spend n great
deal more on books and stationery in proportion TO
their incomes. Another comparison made by DR..
Bailey is between the good scholars and the low
stand ones. As stated above, this shows that the
better scholars are much more careful OF their
living They spend more necessities. and all
naturally on books. and much less pleasure
Yale's high stand spend per cent of their in
come on tobacco and wines where the poorer schol-
ars spend per cent.
Another interesting comparison is made by DR..
Bailey between the way Yale men spend their
money and the way college girls spend it. Smith

COST OF COLLEGE LIVING.
Interesting Comparison of Erpendi-
lures at Yale, Smith and VaSsar.

New-Haven, Conn. Oct. % (speciaD.-willlam b.
Bailey of the Yale faculty. has for several years
been making investigation of the cost OF living
OF college students, and has to some interest
ing conclusions. Yale juniors and seniors who
have been in his classes have handed in weekly
accounts of their expenditures and from these DR..
Bailey has deduced his results. As it is the first
authoritative study of such statistics that has been
made. considerable interest attaches to his figures.
DR.. Bailey has found for instance, that the aver
age yearly expense account OF a Yale student hg-
up to Sl,10O. Some spend as much as
5000 for year at Yale, while some get along on
as little as $500. The study which Dr. Bailey mas
made of the figures handed in 10 him by Yale men
shows. he says that the money a student has
spend the more he will put into pleasures. He
also says that a comparison of the expenses OF high
stand and low stand students shows that the
poorer scholars spend more pleasure and harm
fuI amusements. while rule the man who
stands highest in his classes gives the least atten-
ton to the pleasure side of his college life
The average Yale undergraduate who spends in
a year LOO divides his money about as follows
ON necessities. which include rent. tuition board
clothing laundry. medical attendance, travelling
furniture and minor expenses, he spends an aver
age yearly OF about $780, books. periodicals ard
stationery he spends $50; on pleasure which in
cludes theatres. pool and billiards. social functions
flowers. music society dues, chance suppers and
athletics he spends average of 500; on tobacco
and intoxicants $50 out of his total bank account
for the year the average Yale man spends . per
cent for tho necessities OF life, IS per cent for
pleasure and per cent each for stationery, in
cluding books and tobacco and liquor. DR. Bailey
compares this with the expenses Of the average un
married instructor at Yale. The instructor spends
little more on necessities. less pleasures about
twice as much on books and half as much to-
bacco and drinks
Compared with the set OF figures gained
from the expense accounts OF unmarried of
about the same age as college undergraduates but
on salaries in banks shops and business Offices,
and who average $1,000 year expenditures, most
interesting result IS shown. Where the college man
New-York tribune., 1904-10-23

spends y per cent OF his income for necessities the
unmarried business man spends 50 per cent Where
the Yale spends Is per cent for pleasures. the
non college man the financial plane spends
81 per cent The average young business man In
New-York spends 10 per Of his total income on
wines and cigars, where the Yale student spends
per cent. The commonly accepted dictum that the
average college man is addicted to cafes. COM
does not hold good from these figures The New
York unmarried puts twice as much money
each year into drinks and tobacco as the Yale
man does The average Yale spends SIS q year
an the theatre where the business of his own
ago spends $50 In pool and billiards the New
Yorker also spends much more money than the
vole man A curious deduction from the figures
collected by Or. Bailey IS that the unmarried young
business man in a large city like New-York spends
hts nancy IN much the same proportion as the
richer and more luxurious Yale student
How Yale men OF varied means divide up their
animal income is shown by DR.. Bailey. Three
,laeeas of Yale students were asked 10 hand in
yraelIz statements of their accounts. those who
,s,t under 500 annually IN Class I. those between
GOO md 81 900 in Glass and those who went above

,artson is interesting. Nine out OF every ten Of

In his youth he and his fellow students at tho

the ratio Yale men who have moderate
means. But where Yale men spend about one
seventh Of their money clothes the girls spend
oue-fourth This is an interesting sdelight on what
goes on at Smith and Vassar Another unexpected
thing is that Yale men spend much more on period
icals and books than the college girls. y Yale
takes four magazines or newspapers to one taken
by Smith or Vassar girl. He also spends twice as
much on books. This would seem TO stick thorn
in the side OF the literary critics who have always
maintained that it Is the young women who support
the magazines
Compared with the Yale "co-ed'' the 'long-haired
grind" OF the Yale Gee Club song the Smith and
Vassar girls are riotous spendthrfts The Yale
''co-eds' spend their money much as the poor Yale
men spend theirs. They spend half as much on
clothes as the college girls do OF course the girls
do not spend anything for pool and billiards ath-
letic and tobacco and wines. But they do spend an
inordinate amount in candy. ice cream sodas tea"
and TO their credit charity. There is no mention of
that factor in the Yale financial budget.
A comparison OF the way Smith College Vassar
and Yale women graduate students spend 1neir in
comes has been computed by DR.. Bailey On neces-
sites including clothing. the Smith girl spends S76
annually the Vassar girl S7SS and the Yale 'co-ed'
san On books periodicals and stationery the Smith
girl spends S27 yearly. the Vassar girl SCI and the
Yale coed S3s showing that the graduate student
who is a woman in a mans college is much more
interested I'm her library than in her clothes In the
pleasure account some interesting things are found
Thus. on the theatre the Smith College young
woman leads the race with SIG worth of tickets a

Smith girl leads She spends So year In enter
