Newark post., 1915-06-09

ready enrolled for entrance to the
college next year. 1t will be nee
essary to provide for housing more
students than the dormitory can
accommodate. The most feasible
plan would seem to be to use the
house formerly occupied by Pro-
fessor Whittier recently acquired
by the college for this purpose.
The rent of this house is estimated
at $50 per month. The following
is an estimate of the cost of fur
nishing and maintaining this
house for a year:
Income-l2 students at $3.50 per
year, $4,000; one teacher at $500
per year; total income, $4,000.
Expenses-Food for 13 persons
for 40 weeks at 1925 per week, 81,
TO; repairs (bath room, etc) $500
furniture, II students, $3.50; furn-
iture, one teacher, $50; furniture
living room, $3.50; fuel, $50;
light, $40; service (40 weeks at SIS
per week, food at 1925 per week.
1920; total expenses, $2,45O.
An additional sum of 500 will
doubtless be necessary as an in
ducement to some member of the
faculty Ca woman) to take the re-
sponsibility of living with these
students.
The following needs must be
brought to the attention of the
committee:
Ventilating fan for chemistry
laboratory, estimated $3.50; lock
ers for 20 day students, estimated
SS5; locks for home economics de-
partment, S25; tinting walls and
