UNIVERSITY COSTS
EXPLAINED BY dean
Superintendent Is Told Of Bust
ness Cost Accounting Methods

Cleveland, o.. March 2.--Business
cost-accounting methods. applied to
costs Of a state university were de-
scribcd by Frederick j. Kelly. dean
OF administration OF the University of
Kansas, in a paper read here this
afternoon before the department OF
superintendent OF the National Edu.
cational association. Dean Kelly used
for his paper specific figures obtained
In a detailed study of the year 1921
20 at the University Of Kansas.
"One significant result of our in
vcstigation Is the relatively high cost
OF laboratory courses" said Dean Kel-
~. so high in fact as to challenge the
science courses to defend the labora-
tory method. Another significant re-
suit Is the relatively small cost OF the
larger classes, and still another result
Is the value Of detailed cost figures in
determining a budget for the next
year"
The student credit hour. rather
than the student clock hour, was
adopted by Dean Kelly as his unit OF
measure, for the reason that Amcrl-
can universities as rule grant d.
plomas for the completion of four
years of 30 credit-hours each.
1t was determined that the cost,
per student credit-hour in the various
major schools of the university was:
Law $5.97; art and science $7.41; edu-
cation, $11.7o; engineering. $14.01:
pharmacy s14.21; medicine, $19.41;
university average, 1914.
Salaries directly chargeable to cost
of instruction were shown to be 81
per cent of the total university cost;
overhead. "a per cent: general MAIN
tenance. 6iper cent, and special main
tenance, per cent.
Student credit hour costs In nom
laboratory courses were found to
range from s4.02 for economics to
$7.s6 for French and s12.46 for an
Gent languages. In the laboratory
courses the student credit-hour costs
ranged from s7.47 for geology TO
Sits, Averages for laboratory
courses was $10.72 and for the non
laboratory departments, $500. Costs
for heat, light. and japitor service
was found to range from 20 cents PEI
student credit-hour in history to s2.57
for chemistry. averaging "a cents in
the non-laboratory courses md $3.50
in the laboratory ones I'm other

partments require more than three

PERPETUAL LEASES

chased by the Government.

Yokohoma. March 2,--The question
OF perpetual leases held by foreigners
In this city Is likely TO be brought up
In the Diet In the form OF proposal
that the government should purchase
them. Under the decision OF the
Hague court, the holders OF these
leases are exempt from taxation. As
result the municipalities income is
considerably curtailed, so the govern
ment for the last eight years has
been contributing $4,000 yen year
to partially offset this loss.
The area Of these leases exclusive OF
the foreign consulates Is $4,000

VISION OF GREAT WEALTH
STIRS UP GOTHAM COMMON
Another Claimant Has Arisen "a
Share in Fortune Amounting
to $500, 900, 900.

Gotham, Common Essex. Eng,
March 2.---Another claimant has aris-
en- to a share In fortune OF $780,
tensive lands In the city of New York
leased long years ago to King George
III. Since the expiration of the lease
various unsuccessful claims have been
advanced. but the lawyers Of Mrs.
Mary Jane Harrison, of Gotham
| Common, Essex, the wife Of laborer,
tell her they think she has chance.
1t seems that the end of the eigh-
teenth century a certain Robert Ed
wards. of Perth, Scotland, emigrated
to America. made money and pur-
chased land. This land, which he OBJ
tanned for a comparative triflle on ac-
count of it's marshy nature, he after
wards leased to King George for 80
years, and after the war of indepen-
dence it passed to the United States.
II is now part of the site of the city
of New York. Robert Edwards was
drowned while returning to Scotland
from America and efforts to trace his
brothers and sisters failed.
1t is known that the eldest brother
OF the Edwards family was called
John, and Mrs Harrison claims to be
the eldest child of Samuel Richard
Edwards, himself the son OF John Ed
wards, brother of Robert.
The argument is advanced here
that, according to American law, mon
ey reverts to the United States If no
successful claimant appears within
100 years of the death of the legatee.
Mrs. Harrison. believing herself en-
titled to share of the fortune of a
long deceased Scottish American mill
lionaire, hopes to be able to prove her
claim within a short time.

| must utter a warning at once-a
loud warning justified by the error it
seeks to correct That is, "Do not put
cold cream on your face in any old way.
Better not put on any cold cream than
apply it slap dash, hit or miss" There is
a right way to do everything and the
application of cold cream to the face is
in no sense an exception. Cold cream is
applied with the aim of fabrication of
the skin and to prevent its drying and
shrinking away from the flesh and thus
forming wrinkles. But the ruthless man.
ner in which it is rubbed into the skin
defeats the very purpose it seeks to
achieve. | have seen a lovely face sub
jected to as rough treatment by its charm
ing owner as washboard by an unaccom-
plished laundress. Rub, rub, rub. Any
old way to plaster the face with its too
thick coating of creams.
So have shown with the help of pretty
little Miss Emma Haig, the famous
dancer, how cold cream should be applied.
Also, in the pictures which Miss Haig has
posed under my direction, | have shown
exercises for the face which will keep it
young and free from wrinkles.
There are two kinds of facial ex-
ercises. Those which tighten the skin
and muscles and those that relax it. Both
are necessary.
In one of the pictures on this page
you see Miss Haig's pretty face in its
frame of curls, engaged in what seems
a giant yawn. But it is not a yawn. II
is carefully thought out and intelligent
ly practiced relaxation exercise. The face
is not unlike clock. The pendulum
swings back and forth from one extreme
to another. So a face must swing from
the extreme of relaxation to that OF
activity.
Bear this in mind whileOyou look at
the picture in which Miss Haig has
opened her small mouth to what seems
the limit of it's rosy circumference. OBJ
serve first, that she has lifted her head.
There is wisdom in this, for of all the
poses that must be avoided is that of let
ting the head sink to rest upon the chest.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1923-01-21

of expression that f1sh's facial oriice
presents, to an alluring Cupid's bow.
Increasing number of years is apt to
express itself in wrinkled eyelids. When
neglected. those curtains of the eye, once.
of such. silken texture and smoothness,
look like curtains that have been threshed
by winds and soaked by rains. They are
redeemed by Inflammation or have the
yellow pallor that denotes lack of circu-
lation. In the case of Inflammation, the
congestion can be relieved by a light
pressure of the finger upon the eyelid. If
it be an anaemic condition of the delicate
muscles and faccidness of the skin of
the eyelid, then the light pressure will
induce added circulation. The stimulated
circulation will refresh and feed the
shrunken tissues of the lids.
A most important exercise for keeping
the face young is that done by the eyes.
AS a person grows older the eyes grow
smaller. l called on friend and con-
temporary of mine and found her in a
violent fit of sobbing.
"Stop," l said. "No woman can afford
to weep like that. You will break your
face into thousand wrinkles"
She gasped little, sighed few times
and stopped crying. Someone had told
her her eyes were still beautiful, but not
as large as they had been.
Exercise them and you will make
them larger and more effective" ! told
her.
My prophecy was fulfilled. She has
married again, and to a ulti-millionaire.
