A demand for a scent loaf of bread
even if smaller than the present 6-cent
loaf, will be made by the Retail Grocers'
Protective Association, If an investigation
started yesterday justifies such action. J.
B. Simpson, chairman'of committee APP

raised their prices, said today that retail
grocers all over the city would rather
have a smaller loaf to sell at cents.

said Mr. Simpson. but the bakers prefer
to make a scent loaf We find that
women who buy foodstuffs object to the
6-cent loaf, but would not object to s.
cent loaf"

Students From Washington.

Present indications are that the num-
Der of persons who will take up the
work is going to be much larger than
was originally expected. Much interest
has been manifested in the school by
Washingtonians particularly and the
majority of students will be drawn
from that city. Should the number of
persons in attendance warrant it, ar
rangements for extra car service will
be mace. Women as well as men may
attend.
President Patterson had this to say
this morning concerning the opening
of the school:
ut has been my hobby since becom-
ing president Of the college to estab-
lish a night school for the benefit of
those whose daily occupations prevent
them taking up agricultural work
Many inquiries from various sources
made me realize the demand for such
school, and I am glad to see that
the outlook for it is very promising. If
the agricultural school is as success
full as it promises to be l think it will
not be long before there will be night
schools in all four of the departments
of engineering and in the department
of chemistry.

REAL ESTATE
MAY NOT APPEAL
PAVING PROBLEM
City Reserved Right TO Go
Higher in Front st. Assess
ment Matter, However

While the city reserved the right to
appeal from the lower courts decision
on the North Front street paving as
sessment case should the decision go
against 1t. 1t is considered doubtful in
municipal circles whether the munich
pality will exercise the right and carry
the matter to the higher courts.
Whether or not further action will be
taken, however, hasn't been definitely
decided
President Judge Kunkel decided that
the property owned In the section be-
tween Maclay and Division are liable
for only one-half of the cost of the as
sessment and that the city cannot
charge for the western half because it
abuts on park "nonassessable" prop
erty.
Only three of the owners carried the
matter into court. but the decision
holds good, of course, for all of them
The city some time ago appropriated
$4,000 to care for these assessments
should the municipality lose. Property
owners living in Whitehall street won
a similar case more than q year ago
because the northern half of the street
abutted on Reservoir Park, also mon
aSSeSSable" property.
