 For each student President Marshall said the total cost to the college is $47O.S4, towards which a tuition fee of $215 has been. charged, making an excess of $255.S4 in the expense for teaching over. the tuition fee The trustees, however, will recommend a tuition fee of $2o0 for next year. and will increase the charge for board from s385 to s400, bringing the cost of tuition and board to $500, the same as 1t has been this year.
 He dwelt upon the inadequate sal- aries the college was able to pay its
 professors now, saying that they suf- feed only to provide enough to pay
 rent and buy fuel and food and about one-Quarter the clothing needed. There isn't enough left for even va
 cation trip to Saybrook by way of, a
 holiday recreation. Salaries ought to
 be from $2,5o0 to s4,ooo for the pro- fessors and in three years maximum | of s5,0o0 ought to be reached.
 He read letters from the presidents of Smith college, Radcliffe and yassar answering, in the affirmative the two | questions Is Connecticut college need
 ed? Has it Justified itself?,
 The plan of the effort to attain the
 $2,000o0 fund. he explained, embraced a general chairman, from among the
 trustees of the college. a, faculty com 1 mittee and student committee, coun l ty committees. and a general commit tee of men, whose field would only be limited by the universe. The county
 committees are to learn of prospective donors. New London and Windham
 counties would be combined a1se Mid dlesex and Holland placed together.
 but the other counties of the state
 would each have its own committees. We are in this to stay with 1t till 1t Is done. declared President Marshall in closing.
 | People Have the Money.
 Rev. J. Beveridge Lee suggested that I Trustee George s. Palmer make the
 motion endorsing the plan, but MT.
 Palmer thought some one, other than
 a trustee had better do that. He
 went on to speak with fervor of his
 great interest in seeing Connecticut
 college supported, and said that
 would be an abiding interest for the rest of his life. To get this $2000. 000
 we need to realize how much can be effected by how little in money. The state of Connecticut has never been |, l oO PtSoPNAO Ocsos StA0 piOIilS. Ol US H. ,, dustries in the past year and in the present year have never been exceeded
 in it's history. and in spite of taxes the
 net incomes remaining to- men of
 wealth are larger than ever before One per cent. of that income would answer the call of the college for
 support. It is merely the question. ot getting people of means into touch with the wonderful work that the col lege. is doing. Never so much as now was the need of education SC apparent for we have within oul state an alien population for whom our only hope is to educate these in. to right conception of what Ameri. "a stands for. We must give educa. . tion to those who control the futur, [ and that is the women. The education e of women is the most important par of the work ahead of us.
