UNIVERSITY GOSTS EXPLAINED BY DEAN Superintendent Is Told of Busi- ness Cost Accounting Methods Cleveland, O, March 2.—Business cost-accounting methods, applied to costs of a state university were de- scribed by Frederick J. Kelly, dean of administration of the University of Kansas, in a paper read here this afternoon before the department of superintendents of the National Edu. cational assoclation, Dean Kelly used for his paper specific figures obtained in a detalled study of the year 1921- 22 at the University of Kansas, “One significant result of our in- vestigation is the relatively high cost of laboratory courses,” sald Dean Kel- 1y, “s0 high in fact as to challenge the sclence courses to defend the labora- tory method. Another significant res sult is the relatively small cost of the , larger classes, and still another result 18 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 Amerl- can universities as a rule grant di- plomas for the completion of four years of 30 credit-hours each. It was determined that the cost, per student credit-hour in the various major schools of the university was: Taw $5.97; art and science $7.41; edu- cation, $11.70; enginecring, $14.01; pharmacy, $14.21;' medicine, $19.41; university average, $8.74., Balaries directly chargeable to cost of instruction were shown to be 57 per cent of the total university cost; overhead, 34 per cent; general main- tenance, 6iper cent, and special main- tenance, 3 per cent. Student credit hour costs in non- laboratory courses were found to range from $4.02 for economics to $7.96 for French and $12.46 for an- cient languages. In the laboratory courses the student credit-hour cocts ranged from $7.47 for geology to $17.76., Averages for laboratory courses was $10.72 and for the non- laboratory departments, $5.00. Costs for heat, light, and japitor service was found to range from 23 cents pesw student credit-hour in history to $2.57 for chemistry, averaging 54 cents in the non-laboratory courses nnd $1.89 in the laboratory ones. “In other words,” sald Dean Kelly, ‘“science de- partments require more than three RYZON BAKING POWDER you use /ess times as much space per student credit hour, as do the non-sclence de- partments. The most interesting os- pect of this cost accounting study concerns Its use in preparing the fol- lowing ycar's budget,” VISION OF GREAT mLTH STIRS UP COOTHAM COMMON Another Gut‘nuu Has Arisen to Share in Fortune Amounting to $500,000,000, Cootham, Common Essex, Ing., March 2.—Another claimant has aris- en to a share in a fortune of $500,- 600,000, said to consist intitle to ex- tensive lands in the city of New York Icased long years ago to King George ITL. Since the explration of the lease various unsuccessful claims have been advanced, but the lawyers of Mrs, Mary Jane Harrison, of Cootham Common, Essex, the wife of a laborer, tell her they think she has a chance. It 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 iand, which he ob- tained for a comparative trifile on ac- count of its marshy nature, he after- wards leased to King George for 99 years, and after the war of indepen. dence it passed to the United States. It. is now a 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. It is known thhat the eldest brother ot the Edwards family was called John, and Mrs, Harrison claims to be the eldest child of Samuel Richard Fdwards, 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 a share of the fortune of a long deceased Scottish-American mil- lionaire, hopes to be able to prove her claim within a short time. Physicians say that women not only sleep more lightly than men, but re- quire less slecp, as to the number of hours daily.

Flled Marsal Bluecher got posses- | slon of the conveyance on thq battle- fleld and carried it off, There are to- day two branches of the Bluecher family, one German and one English, and each has been claiming the tro- phy. The contest has been long and bitter, and has divided the Bluecher family for many years, Now the German supreme court here has decided the vehicle belongs to the English family; that it rightly inherits from the fleld-marshal. The claims advanced by the Irench gov- ernment, under the Versailles treaty, are Ignored. But the Knglish owner has decided that the carriage be taken to Breslau, where the ficld-marshal lived, and turned over to the custody of the municipality. The ownership however, is to remain in his name, German newspapers are jubllant that ¥France did not get the earriage, whieh Is dnu‘flbul as “an old four- wheeled uflu!r PERPETUAL LEASES chased by the Government, Yokohoma, March 2,—~The question of perpetual leases held by forelgners in this city is likely to be brought up In the Diet in the form of n proposal that the government should purchase them, Under the decision of the Hague court, the holders of these leases are exempt from taxation, As a result the municipality's income is ronsiderably curtalled, so the govern- ment for the last eight years has heen contributing 80,000 yen a year to partially offset thls loas, The area of these leases exclusive of | the foreign consulates s 257,000 tsubo, a tsubo equalling 26 'square (feet, The value is enormous, as the land is in the center of the city and much of it faces the harbor, where foreign firms have erected substantial bulldings. “CASCARETS"—CONSTIPATION Clean Your Bowels!
