The steady tendency in our civili-

fewer employed. This constantly re.
leases man power for the operation
of new Industries and expansion of
old ones-that is, gradual increase
in our average standard of living.

REGISTRATION AT STATE
UNIVERSITY THIS WEEK

The work of the fall, winter and
spring quarters of the University of
Colorado will be begun with the open
ing of the registration books Sept.
go. Registration of students will con-
tinue until Saturday, the 22nd. Uni
versity officials request that students
who cannot reach Boulder before the
22nd. communicate with their deans
before that date il possible and OBJ
tain permission to register late.
Late registration involves the pay
ment of an extra fee.
This new ruling does away with the
system of permitting registrations
during the first three days OF the first
week Of school. II has been made to
expedite the beginning of the work
for the year, which has heretofore
been delayed several days by late ar.
rivals. Classes will begin Monday.
Sept. "a. and all students viii be e.
pected TO be present for the first roll
call.
Under a new system, students al
the University will now register but
once each year, instead of at the be.
ginning of each quarter, as hereto.
fore, II is expected that this new
system viii simplify the problem OF
registration and save much time for
the students and for the faculty.

Lincoln, Aug. 9.-The state admin

steps to force down the price of gaso-
line to consumers and take advan.
tage of the cut-throat price cutting of
gasoline jobbers as was done by Gov
ernor McMaster of South Dakota, who
has forced the price of gas down in
that state from to cents TO con-
sumers.
Governor Charles w. Bryan was still
absent and Grant L. Shumway, secre-
-tary of agriculture, directly in charge
of gasoline inspectors, was reported
ill. Vincent Stahl, acting secretary,
asserted that SO far as he knew, the
department contemplated no fight on
gasoline prices. In fact, according to
Stahl, the state has no weapons. like
South Dakota, to force down prices,
unless it was through investigation
and expose of enormous profits of
dealers growing out Of the jobbers

Our inspectors merely test saso-
line and do not even report current
