THE DROUTH

THE DrOuih is a long. dry spell

The DrOuth Is caused hv. a tota ah.
sence OF rain in places where d little

strange and inscrutable mysteries 81

should fall with such fervor and eX-
uberarce IN the spring Of the wear.

Brown Raises Tuition Fee.

Brown University haS recently an nounced that the annual charge TOT tui- tion will be raised from SZUV to S450 for the academic year beginning in Sep tember, 1921. This increase will apply both to present and prospective stu dents. At the same time the amount devoted to student aid will be increased, so that students of slender financial means may not be seriously embar- raSsed.
 In making this change Brown falls in to line with the other eastern colleges. At Harvard the charge for tuition is now $250, at Princeton $250, and at Yale $500. Dartmouth has recently fix ed the tuition charge at S25c, and Bos- ton University at $225.
 The increased cost of the higher edu- cation is inevitable. The salaries of college teachers have everywhere been advanced. The cost of light, heat. printing. repairs and general operation of the plant has greatly increased, and a serious situation confronts the col leges.

a few minutes earlier each day and get away in time to catch the train.
 Taking up the southbound 1925 train, upon which it was complained no connec- tions were made either east or west at New London, it was shown that there was an average of 45 persons using this train, daily. It misses the 10.47 for Prov idence and the 10.40 for New York. The next New York train is not till 11.50. Superintendent Smith said nothing could be done about any change in time on this train, as it comes through from. Worces- ter and makes, connections at Providence with the train from Boston.
 Another complaint heard was that there
 is no train from New London now after
 5.30 D. m, where there was formerly the S.32 from New London. The records of the raid. said Superintendent Smith, show ed an average of only nine passengers in six months period and the train had been taken off for eeonomys sake on the part of the railroad,
 matter cf saving and economy was also the reason for the removal of morn ing trains. southbeund. around or s o'clock, Superintendent Smith said. The roads records for six months showed an
 average of from seven to II passengers
 The first train now is at SIS and aver ages 47 passengers, of whom 50 per cent
 go to the submarine base.
 One other criticism related to getting from Hartford to Norwich by the train that leaves Hartford at 4.35 and reaches Willimantic at 5.35. The trolley from Willimantic to Norwich leaves Williman. tic at 5.25 and there is no train to Nor wich until o'clock Superintendent
 Smith promised that he would take steps both at Hartford and Willimantic to set what could be done to help this situation
 It is proposed also to see what the trolley | company can do to better this condition

CLEANUP DRIVE REPORT TO
 DIRECTORS OF c. OF


 Reports on the Norwich cleanup campaign were made at the meeting of the directors of the Norwich Chamber of Commerce Thursday afternoon. It was reported that the Boy Scouts are doing active work in reporting places that need to be cleaned up and these will all be investigated by the chamber of commerce committee. Further report will thereupon be made to Health Off, cer Henry Gebrath, who will report places to the police department if he finds it necessary.
 It is proposed that the health pro- gramme shall be strictly enforced to make Norwich just as clean city as possible and the chamber of commerce will see to, it that consistent deter mined effort along this line is made. The matter of daylight saving came up for comment with the expression that the chamber had done what it could to secure unanimity of action and was not satisfied with the confusion in time that 1 is prevailing now, but did not feel that l it is called upon to take any further ac- 1 tion.

so that the train would make local stops.e
 Another complaint was on the north bound train which leaves the submarine base at 326 standard time. Norwich men who are employed at the base get through work at s.3O, just too late to catch the train. They have to wait till the next train. two hours later. The railroad men told the business men that this train gets to Norwich at 3.4S and has to leave again for New London at 3.5S. This period of 10 minutes is little enough to shift the engine and get the train set again, as it has to make New London on time for connections. It would not be possible to delay the train any for the workmen on the northbound trip. It is understood that the commandant at the base may rearrange the work schedule of the Norwich men so that they can begin

The re- vised schedule which has lately been put into effect on the Norwich and Worcester division has been the cause of the com plaints that were made.
 The first criticism taken up referred to the Sunday morning southhound train, which formerly made local stops that ac- commodated a number of Taftville people who went 10 Poquetanuck on Sundays.
