Jno. Finnell of Kansas has
been here for some days visiting
his old neighborho0d and inciden-
tally looking about for farm,
Jno. says that land prices are too
high for him so far as he has in

There is a most sensible letter
written and sent to the several
members of the legislature on
the subject of school teachers
salaries and attention given to
school children throughout the
state. The letter is from the
pen of Mr.. Sam Jordan and deals
with a topic which is or ought to
be speedily, the matter of great
est concern to the citizens of the
state. We will be permitted to
print the letter in this issue.
Read it.
M. T. Davenport Of Brunswick
is visiting in Des Moihes, Ia,
his daughter and her son going
with him last week. Mrs. l. E.
Harmed of K. City visited in
Brunswick some time before her
trip to Des Moines and likely
M. T. would not have got so
far from his usual range had
she not roped and made off with
him. He says he is watching
the proceedings of the state
legislature with much interest
not altogether unmixed with dis
gust. Something is going to
happen up that way to turn the
old campaigners thots and tracks
homeward before his visit time
is QUE, mark it.

Everything Sold, Advertised.

TIE Yakima Valley Optimist
recently ran this good one:
1T is strange that a news
paperman should be compelled to
solicit advertising or offer argu-
ment for its use. Funny, isn't
it, that the man who thinks he is
a business man gets up in the
morning from an advertised mat.

razor, takes off advertised pajam-
as and puts on advertised under

vertised coffee or substitute, put,
on an advertised hat, lights al
advertised cigar, goes 20 hi'

down the advertising solicitor fol
his home newspaper on tn,
ground that advertising dosen'I
pay"
One of the hardest things tt
put across in the smaller places
is to get the merchant to adver
tise in the summer, altho in the
winter they, will all rush into
print when the paper is so crowd
ed with advertising that thell
advertisements are pretty wei
showed under. There are many
live merchants who advertls,
most heavily in the dull seasons
on the theory that they get more
publicity for their money at these
times, and that customers attract
ed to the store then will likeI!
come back later. Besides this
it equalizes the sales thruout tn,
year, thereby making it easie
to get thru with the same sale
force instead of being under tn
necessity Of putting on a numbe
of green clerks just before Chris
mas and for the January sales.

MILTON COLLEGE BADLY
IN NEED OF MORE FUNDS
Money Wanted to Pay Better Salaries
to Members of FacuIty-NeW
Buildings Are Necessary.
BY WILLIAM C. DALAND
President, Milton College.

The most imperative need of Milton
College, one of the eight institutions
which are the members OF the Wiscon-
sin Colleges Associated which is &C
quainting the people of the state with
the problems of the privately endowed
college, is an addition to it's present
endowment sufficient to enable the col
lege to continue it's present superior
position and to retain faculty able to
handle it's work If this need is not
met, fatal retrenchment will become
necessary. An addition of $4,000 to
its endowment would give the college
$35O,00O and would meet the present
pressing demand, although total en-
dowment of $500,000 will later be nee
essary to enable the college to take
advanced steps that are highly desir-
able
Another need is that of buildings.
The first is a central heating plant
Such plant would cost approximately
$4,000. This would save the college
money and is a present vital necessity.
The next needs, which will become
more and more pressing as the stu
dent body grows, are a separate
library building and new dormitory
for women. The college library has
outgrown it's room in the Whitford Me-
mortal Hall, building which contains
also the scientific laboratories. A
suitable new library building would
cost approximately $4,000, A new
women's dormitory with modern equip
ment, containing two women's society
rooms could be built for $4,000. The
college has no dormitory for men.
Later a highly desirable additional
building would be a music hall, con-
tanning an auditorium of moderate size,
which might be used for concerts and
lectures as we'll as for chapel services.
The present chapel on the second. floor
of the main recitation building is
much too small. Such music hall is
very desirable, because at present the
musical instruction is given in So
ciety room and in rooms in private
houses. Such building would require
about $4,000.

Or. Henry Coe Culbertson, president
of Ripon College, one of the eight in
situations which are members of the
Wisconsin Colleges Associated which
is today engaged in a statewide cam
paign to acquaint the people of the
state with the problems and needs of
the small college, is graduate of the
University of Cincinnati, University of
Chicago, Lenox College and Missouri
College. Before becoming president OF
Ripon in 1918 he was president of the
College of Emporia, Emporia, Kansas.
Ripon College had an enrolment of
III students in 1912 and this year
has nearly 300.
Dr. Culbertson is one of the few
college presidents of the country who,
despite the flights of the high cost of
living, has succeeded in holding ev-
cry member of his faculty. He has in
creased the salaries of his faculty
members to the best of his ability and
will continue to do so as long as nee
essary.
The Wisconsin Colleges Associated
are engaged today in informing the
Wisconsin public something about the
cost of education and particularly the
small college problem OF today.
