KANSAS STUDENTS WORK
Half Of University Men Earn COL
leae Expenses.

LAWRENCE, Kan, Feb. 24.-Half
OF the student body OF 1888 at the
University OF Kansas are earning part
or all OF their expenses while attend
Ing school or this number 243 are
women, OF whom 70 are entirely self
supporting. OF the men, TT are en-.
tirely self-supporting.
OF late years there has been rapid
increase in the number Of working
students, accounted for by Increased
prosperity of the farm population. In
the past, when a mortgage was the
principal shareholder on nearly every
Kansas farm, farmers sons cam. To
the university. Now. when mortgages
are the exception, the farmers sons
ana daughters are going more to
Northern and Eastern schools. while
less fortunate city boys and girls
come to the State University.
Increased opportunities for earning
part or their way have given. CITY
men and women opportunities for at.
tending the university. Business
houses furnish men with work Satur-
days and evenings. Some of the won-
en- are stewards OF boarding clubs
oookkeepers, stenographers, store
clerks office and laboratory helpers
Others do mending, sew, take care OF
children or do light domestic service

SCORES MASTER BAKERS
Congressman RaIney Declares Flour
Trust Exists.

The existence OF a trust to curtail
the -four supply and boost the price
of bread in the United States was
charged by Congressman Henry T.
Rainey OF Illinois today.
81 base my statements upon facts
gathered in a personal investigation" !"
said Rainey. "At the annual conven-
tion OF the National Association of
Master Bakers at Salt Lake City last
summer, President 8. r. Mcdonald, of
Memphis, announced that a campaign
would be started at once to educate
the public to a 10-cent doaf' Since
then this has been done.
Bread made from Minneapolis
fofiur is being sold cheaper in Ire
land than II Is in the United States.
Bread in the warning countries is
cheaper today than 1t Is In the United
States.
'In a recent letter to all members,
Secretary J. NJ. Bell, of the master
bakers, tells OF the increased. dues
for the campaign OF education In
the same letter he calls the many
bakers who refused to join in price
boosting nothing less than rene
gades.'
an view of these facts I charge
there Is fast forming food trust in
this country that is in a conspiracy
to keep up the price OF bread"

LECTURES ON SCANDINAVIA
Prof. James Howard Gore Points to
Wars Effect on Penlsula Countries.

THE national treasure of Norway
Is her as yet unmeasured water power
which promises a great Industrial fu.
ture for her." said Prof. James How.
ard Gore, lecturing before the Ma.
tional Geographic Society at the New
Masonic Auditorium yesterday on
Scandinavia"
These countries OF the Scandinavian
peninsula, DR.. Gore pointed out, have
had difficult path to follow since
the war began. Denmark, the most
successful of all agricultural COM
munities, has built up a great bust.
ness in dairy products which she has
been shipping to both Germany and
England. Norway has supplied both
of these nations with fish, while
Sweden's mineral products have found
a ready market in both countries. In
each case these Scandinavian coun-
tries have received coal in return, a
necessity which they do not produce
themselves. When IT Is realized how
embargo after embargo has been
placed upon neutral shipping by both
nations 1t will be readily understood
how complicated have been the rela,
tions OF the northern countries with
the warning empires.
