Reason for Higher Prices
Il find that people nowadays are
satisfied TO pay more for eatables than
a few years ago, In fact. they rather
seek the high priced goods said d.
NJ. Ross, of Crystal Falls. To a report
or for the Diamond Drill Take the
matter Of eggs as an example A few
years ago when eggs reached the price
they are selling at today many of our
customers refused To buy them. They
simply got along without them and
when The price got down where they
thought they could afford 10 use eggs
they commenced again. This year /
IND these same people buying eggs
and paying the extra high price with
OUT any murmur. have studied the
matter somewhat and have come 10
the conclusion that the public has been
educated 10 higher prices and expects
10 pay them. What is true of eggs is
true OF every other line Of goods We
handle. People expect To pay higher
prices now and pay them willingly
! don't know how much of the high
prices is due To combinations; ! sup
pose that some of il is but / do know
that the demand is much greater now

DEAN FOR WOMEN'S
COLLEGE CONSIDERED
DR.. Harter Interviews Several
Applicants

The building committee of the
Affiliated College Commission is
still giving considerable time to
the search for a woman dean to
take charge of the Delaware Col
lege for Women to be erected near
Newark and opened next Septem-
ber. The members Of the commit
fee have consulted with several ap-
plicants during the past few days.
While the new college which will
be affiliated with Delaware College
is not to be opened bfore next
September, it is understood that it
is the intention of the commission
to recommend a dean to the Trus-
tees as soon as one can be found
whom the commission thinks will
be the right woman for the posi-
ton, so as to get the benefit OF her
knowledge in the many details OF
the work preparatory to opening
the school.
On Saturday Miss Winifred j.
Robinson, who is one of the appli-
cants, was in Newark to meet DR..
George A. Harter, president Of
Newark post., 1913-11-05

Delaware College. She was brought
here by Mrs. Alfred D. Warner, a
member of the Affiliated College
Commission and also a member of
the building committee OF that COM
mission. Miss Robinson is from
Nassar, where she is a teacher in
botany, and is also at the head of
one Of the houses of the institu-
ton. Miss Robinson is highly re-
commended and in addition to her
teaching she has also written IA
number of books on botany which
attracted some attention. After a
conference with DR.. Harter, Miss
Robinson with Mrs. Warner. was
taken to the site Of the proposed
new college.
Last Friday DR.. Harter went to
Wilmington where he held a con-
ference with Miss Carpenter. an
other applicant for the deanship.
Miss Carpenter is a graduate of
Colorado College. After gradual
ing she did some work at Harvard
and she is now doing some work at
Mt. Holyoke.
Another applicant who was in
Newark several days ago and had
a talk with DR.. Harter was Miss
Lillian W. Johnson, a graduate of
Michigan. She has done some
work at Cornell where she secur-
ed her DOCTORS degree. Miss John
son is now connected with south
ern institution. To date, it is un-
derstood no decision has been made
The architect is still working on
the plans but they will probably be
ready in short time and actual
work started looking towards the
erection of the buildings.
