College Booster
Concert On Tuesdav

Rosa Page Welch, negro mezzo-
soprano, will be guest soloist at the
Bluffton College Booster concert at
8 p. m. next Tuesday in the First
Mennonite church.
Because of the drive for gymnas-
ium funds in the Bluffton district
during the last year, admission to
this years booster event will be
without charge, college officials an
nounced.
An offering will be taken, and
proceeds in excess of expenses for
the concert will be used to finance
the construction of new asphalt

lege hall, Ropp hall, Lincoln hall and
Science hail.
Mrs. Welch is a concert artist of
nationwide fame and critics have

of her programs usually is the in
depreciation of negro spirituals,
which she sings without accompani-
ment.
The concert artist also has been
active in inter-racial programs.

whites commanding price of 33
cents. Brown eggs were being
bought for 81 cents, and the retail
price in stores was 40 cents.
DECLINE UNUSUAL
Last weeks drop in egg prices was
unusual, coming at time when the
market usually holds firm in the face
of the increased demand for eggs ap-
parent during the Easter season.
In receding three cents, however,
the price remained eight cents high
er than the low marks prevailing in
late February and early March, it
was pointed out by dealers and re-
tailers.
Present prices are expected to
stay firm until after Easter, espe-
cially with the respect to top-quality
whites which have a greater appeal
as dyed Easter eggs.
Dealers say that actually there is
no difference in white and brown
eggs beyond appearance, but that the
preference for white shells generally
permits a selling price of from one
to two cents more per dozen.
White eggs are laid by Leghorr
varieties and brown eggs generally
are laid by the heavier breeds.
