Only a Slight Rise in Living Costs Here Despite Rising Price Levels: Work Normal
In spite of a sharp price in the price of food, indications are that the cost of living in Lawrence will rise only slightly for University students this year.
According to Mrs. P. E. Parker of the men's employment bureau in the Alumni office, 453 men have applied for work at this office. Of those 76 have received CSEP job and 53 have been found other jobs. There remains 236 to be allowed.
The demand for student help is normal as is the demand for employment by students. The need for skilled workers and expects in various lines is the
Few Rents Raised
Only a few of the rooming houses have raised their rents and a correspondingly small number of boarding places have raised their schedule of trips.
According to reports from some quarters a marked increase in enrollment is anticipated which will mean an increase in the demand for help in serving student wants, in boarding houses, rooming houses, and the life.
Rooms are going faster this year
Business men and heads of the employ-
ment burens have indicated that the
company is in excellent shape so sooner
this year than in any previous year.
Ellsworth Prepares Folder
A folder of suggestions to men students seeking to work their way through the University has been prepared by the university's director of the men's employment service.
There still must be explained the sorrowful tale of freshness of the difficulty of breaking into jobs. The men's employment bureau last year placed 276 men while there were 315 of the applicants placed on the CSEP payroll.
A slight increase in the cost of living may be expected due to the rise in price levels and the drought. As yet, this increase is slight.
Health Fee Raised
The only fee change is an increase in the health fee from three dollars to four dollars to take care of the increase in health care of the Walking Memorial hospital.
In the folder published by Mr. Elswarth the three agencies are pointed out which work toward the employment of students the men's employment service
in room 2 of the Administration building; the women's employment bureau in the adviser of women's office, and the executive assistant under the auspices of the National Youth Administration in charge of Miss Mary C. Oben in room 4 of the Admiral
First Semester Precursions
There are a number of scholarships and loans available to students after they have attended the University a semester.
It is suggested and urged that the new student or freshman who has no imme-
date prospect for a job come to school with not less than $125. This will allow him to get through the first semester and, then, if he has made sufficient contracts or a good record, he may fall hei to jobs about the Hill.
Stories of catching cockroaches in heat tunnels as jobs are true, but those jobs are few and usually more difficult than they sound.
