There has been a more or less of

Woman Citizens League, of the state

The league has passed resolutions
calling upon the mayors committee

30 privately owned cemeteries in
Queens county to pay taxes. They
are now exempt by law, and the

The number of private cemeteries
in Queens county is 80, having an
acreage of 22,255 acres and an esti-

league estimates a tax return on this

dollars To each boarder for the win
ter term. Girls will pay $500 and
boys 1925. This is still only half
what is paid elsewhere, and is
cheaper than staying at home.-
Clearly. there can be no increase
in pay for student labor, because
the student labor is one cause Of the
deficit u is hoped the higher prices
for lumber, labor and farm products
will enable parents TO provide this
extra three dollars for the winter
term, and that students who have no
parents or have saved up earnings,
can borrow little from their

Fund.
