University Co-eds Will WrestIe With
Real Cost of Living Problem
in Practice Cottage.

Madison.-State university co-eds
in home economics have a chance
to wrestle with the real cost of liv-
ing problem as a result Of a new
requirement for all the young wom-
en- in this course to the effect that
each of them must in turn take en-
tire charge of the new practice cot
tage just provided. The cottage is
on piece of land recently acquired
by the university and is completely
equipped and furnished with view
to giving the home economics girls
actual practice in housekeeping.
The value and efficiency of various
labor saving devices are being tested
by the girls under actual housekeep-
ing conditions The cottage contains
a living room, library, dining room,
kitchen, laundry, storeroom, three
bedrooms and bathroom. One of
the bedrooms is equipped for classes

SEEKS To ABOLISH
GRADUATE SCHOOL
Supt. Cary Proposes Change in
University Organization.
REGENTS TO CONSIDER PLAN
Special Meeting of Board viii Be
Held for Acting on the Resolution
Adoption, Regarded as improbable.
Would Shake University System.

Madison-A resolution, which If
it is adopted by the university direc-
tors, will virtually abolish the gradu-
ate school of the state institution,
was introduced at the last meeting OF
the regents by Supt. C. P. Cary.
In accordance with the changes ad-
vocated by the state official in his re-
cent criticism OF the instructions and
management of the research depart
ment, it is proposed that fellows and
assistant instructors be eliminated
from the graduate faculty and that
instruction be vested in the offices of
full university professorship. The
change would prove revolutionary in
the organization of the research
school and would cause its probable
retirement
The resolution was referred to a
special committee consisting of Presi-
dent James S. Trottman of Milwau-
kee, head of the regents board; Pres
ident Charles r. Van Hise of the uni
versity, and Supt. Cary.
1t is not expected in university cir
cles that the plan of Supt. Cary will
be supported. The strength of the
state institution has been declared by
educational experts of national repu-
tation to lie in it's graduate depart
ment, the elimination of which, it is
considered, would undoubtedly prove
injurious to the university.

The widower withdrew his gaze
