Efficiency Costs Money.

Dartmouth may now be added to the
list of colleges which spent more
money last year than they received.
The deficit in this case was more than
$4,000 and was largely due to the in
creased appropriations made for in
struction. During the last three years
the cost of teaching at the college has
advanced $4,000, while the total ex-
penditures for all purposes have ad-
vanced only $4,000. Increased eff
cheney means increased financial bur-
dens. BY way of showing that the
College is now an example Of big bust
ness, 1t may be stated that Dartmouth
last year disbursed $372,515. In view
OF the fact that the amount received
from students tuition fees was less
than $4,000 it may be inferred that

Congress has authorized the issuance

The great majority of people have

of amalgamation is by joining the
Progressive party. The Progressive
leaders in this state will give the
same answer whenever they are
asked. Republicans who hug the
delusion that there will be any or
