WHEREFORE UNIVERSITY
GETS BIG APPROPRIATION.
Professor Joinsrs Efforts Double State
Aid For Noted School.

WfIberforce, O.-The seventy-nintn
assembly Of the Ohio legislature which
recently adjourned was quite severe
upon most Of the educational tnsutu-
lions which usually receive financial
aid from the state. Wnberforce uni
versity was the only school whose ap-
propriation for I911-l2 was not cut be
low that for the previous year. There
are twenty-six state institutions Tor
which the legislature was required to
make appropriations. Ont Of the tWen-
ty-six all but one suffered cuts In their
estimates for the next two years
On taking charge In the fall OF 1910
Professor A. A. Joiner installed new
and improved system OF accounts for
WIIberforce university and suggested a
change in the method of submitting es-
Inmates for the appropriations with the
result that the appropriation for 1911
and 1912 almost doubles that obtained
for 1909 and 1910
There are four educational institu-
lions in the state for which the legis-
lature appropriates Wlberforce Is
one of these Institutions The three
white colleges had their appropriations
more than cut IN half. while the
amount asked for wnberforce was al
lowed TO the last cent
The special appropriations amount to
So1 1000; the pro rata Of the general
levy due Wherefore for the two years
win be $4,000 This added TO the spe-
cial appropriations makes for WILDER
force S137. 72O.Se for 1911 and 1912
Some Of the notable increases are as
follows: The appropriation for 1910
was 5000. for 1911. $4,000; appro-
priation for Industries for 1910 wa
$4,000. for 1911 II was $6.417.S6. but
probably the most important increase
both as to amount and significance to
the plant at this time Il the increase
In the amount obtained for repairs and
| improvements which are badly needed
upon the buildings and grounds
The appropriation for such purposes
for the two preceding years was $500
the amount carried by the present ap
preparation for such purposes II SIS.
600, or Just ten times the amount
which was svaiIable for the past two
years Many of the buildings are much
IN need Of repair and much improve
ment on the grounds win be mada poe

But the work has not al been dom
on the outside. Every teacher who 4
